I'll only ever own rescue cats and I'll always believe that a cat is completely different once they're released from their "prison."<BR/><BR/>My beautiful baby girl Itsy, who shared 8 wonderful years with me and who I lost this past October and still am grieving over, was marked for euthanasia. She was with a so-called rescue group and had spent months in a cage. <BR/><BR/>I had begged and begged my husband to get me a second cat (that was when I had just moved out on my own and didn't realize I'd have a houseful in just a few short years!) so my Xander wouldn't be lonely while we worked. He picked Itsy and she arrived the night before my birthday.<BR/><BR/>Not because she was sweet and not because she was set to be pts, but because she was a beautiful and fiesty torbie girl that my husband knew I could love no matter what. And I did. <BR/><BR/>When the rescue called me to do a "follow up" call about 2 weeks later, they told me they couldn't believe what I was saying. Apparently, Itsy had been the most aggressive and difficult cat they'd ever had, actually biting a volunteer to the point she needed stitches. <BR/><BR/>She became the love of my life and though she wouldn't let many people even touch her, I could carry her around like a doll. She slept nuzzled in my hair every single night. <BR/><BR/>Animals know what's in a person's heart and they know who they belong with. I will love her forever and a day, always.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad beautiful Clawdina found her forever home.RHzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05206186553638131861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34039605.post-18343200374567606612009-03-25T07:53:00.000-04:002009-03-25T07:53:00.000-04:00That's a great story--very heartwarming.

It's like prison for humans; imagine how sweet we'd be if we'd been locked up in a cage and didn't know why. Well done!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34039605.post-3135150445048492822009-03-25T01:22:00.000-04:002009-03-25T01:22:00.000-04:00This is why I wanted a rescue cat only as well.
