A cat's life is wonderfur when they are loved and wanted and needed for comfort. I have, and give lots of comfort...you all do too. {{{{{ We need a group hug now!!!}}}}}
Mommies friend Rene wrote this story about her Grandmother's cats...I know it will make you smile to start your week off just right!"I know you will all understand. My grandmother broke her hip three months ago and has been healing in a nursing home. It's doubtful she will ever be able to return home.She has two cats, both most likely considered "unadoptable" by shelters. One is very overweight and the other is semi-feral (never really socialized).I'm the only cat lover in the family and grandma assumed we'd take them. We already have three, and adding two more would be difficult (hubby also said no, lol). I wasn't sure what to do. . . then I remembered a friend who had just moved into a cat-friendly apartment and was looking for a pair of cats.I emailed her about the situation and to my delight, she has agreed to adopt them! She's more than willing to put Tipper, the overweight cat, on a diet, and work with Pumpkin the semi-feral to earn her trust.They are several hours' drive away, so we are working to go and get them next week. I will drive with her and help her.This is so wonderful. The cats need her--they have been alone for three months with a neighbor looking in. She needs the cats--she's had family problems and has wanted her own cats for years.I will post an update next week after we get the kitties. What a relief and joy that everything is working out."

What a wonderful second chance for Tipper and Pumpkin. We hope they are happy in their new forever home.

We will purr for Rene's Grandma. It's a pity nursing homes do not let you bring your pets with you. We thinks the patients would do better if they could.
So glad Pumpkin and Tripper found a new home. Purrs they will be happy. ~S,S,C & F
This makes my heart sing!
What a wonderful outcome for the kitties and the new Mum! We send some rumbly purrs for Rene's Grandma - we hope it cheers her to know that her darlings will be going to a good home and be well loved - hey, maybe their new Mum could send her some updates?

Hugs from the garden...
I am so glad that you found someone who would take them! That is wonderful. I hope her Grandmother does well at the nursing home.
That is a wonderful story. We are thankful for your friend. We will purr that the kitties adapt quickly!
What a sweet story.
What a wonderful story.
After taking in Charlie Taylor, I would definitely consider taking an older kitty again.
Charlie is now fifteen. If I had not known him, I never would have had a kitty sing me to sleep. It is just the most beautiful thing.
You can learn something from the older cats, too, and they are already trained.
It's fun to let them show you what they know.

Eine wirklich schöne Story! Bin schon ganz gespannt, wie sie weiter geht.
Ich wünsche Euch schöne Tage im Cozy Cottage und hoffe, es geht allen gut.
Hugs & kisses, Nicki, Maxi, Bonnie & Birgit
We will be purring and purring for those kitties to get to their new home quickly. And we will be purring and purring for those kitties to get acclimated to their new home quickly and for their new home to be their furever home for certain!
This is a good story with a very nice ending.
I know that gramma must be worried about her kitties and now she will know where they are.
curliepurrs and snugglies to you Peachpuff
We are purring that everything works out for all of them. Too often the pets go to the shelter and never come out when someone goes into a nursing home.
Would you consider voting for Merci in the cutest dog competition?
Oh yes Miss Peach, your story is just what I needed
Your friend's grandma must miss her kitties very much - I'm so glad that someone has come forward to adopt them and give them forever homes.
I don't know what I will do when I get in a nursing home and cannot have a kitty with me. T.
We hope everything works out well!
What a lovely woman to take them in!
This was a really beautiful thing to read ,Miss Peach.- Oh my , is it ever pretty, the table for two your Mommy set, looks so romantic too, with the gorgeous cherubs and the water feature you have to drink from at the cozy cottage! Do you have a pretty lantern type candle holder to use on that table at dark for Romantic candlelight? That would be the perfect finishing touch, so beautiful!
Are you having your wedding reception on the Garden grounds , it is perfect for you and Micky! Love, Valery
:) hurrah! the kittehs are saved! we are very excited about this story! thanks so much!
I like that story, Miss P. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Hi there Miss Peach. Finally popped over to get caught up on your blog. looks like you are having the same weather as us....HOT !! I am so happy that those two kitties got a second chance and how happy the previous owner must of been to know they were going to such a good home. Take care...Miss Tinkerbell
Oh that is so wonderful that the kitties have a chance at a good home. I am sure their owner will miss them very much but it is good that they have a loving home to move into!

Hello, this is Rene checking in! The friend who is adopting the kitties has promised to send my Grandma updates. Grandma has been calling all week, asking questions about my friend (does she had a computer chair? Pumpkin loves to sit on one.) We are picking them up on Friday afternoon, so wish us luck!
Hi my Sweet Miss Peach! OH MY GOODNESS.... I HAVE MISSED YOU!!!
I'm playing "catchup" on the blogs! :)
What a lovely story about Tipper and Pumpkin. God Bless your friend!
Love, Auntie Deb
