Catastrophic Companions

Three cats are more than enough for one person right? Nope. There are never enough cats, I think. Once Luna came into the picture I really believed that was it for me. I was still going to continue helping other cats find a home and help as much as possible in Mas Nou Gats. I was very happy with my three girls, I still missed Oreo but had learned to live with the pain of not having her with me. After seeing various cases of cats and kittens that needed foster homes, I decided that I could help out that way, I knew it wouldn't be easy but I felt I could do it for a bit.  One day, I was scrolling through my Facebook when I see a post from Mas Nou Gats saying they needed an urgent foster home for a kitten that had arrived. He was a special case because his health wasn't the best, and he needed surgery once he was old enough. He was a feral kitten, so he needed someone to help him adapt to human touch and living indoors and such. He seemed like a very cute kitten and at first g...

Last post I explained the sad, hard story of how I lost my little Oreo. I also explained that Sonia, the one in charge of Mas Nou Gats association, gave me an option I had not thought about: adopting another kitten. And it so happened that she was also black and white like my little Oreo. She was also more or less her age, just a month younger. And so, she sent me this picture of Luna.  My first reaction was to burst into tears. I was still very heartbroken about my little Oreo, but at the same time felt happy because I was helping out another kitten that needed a home. I also thought that the name "Belle" would be perfect for her. She was so small and cute, I thought it fit perfectly. We arranged a day for her to bring her over and so the day came. Sonia and I both cried about Oreo because she really was an unforgettable kitten. And so the little kitten came out. Sonia helped me introduce them and Nina and Lilo were so gentle and sweet with her. "Belle" however...

On the last post, I explained how I got to know about my 3 girls and how I ended up having them. Now this post today will be a bit heartbreaking and it is extremely difficult for me to talk about it, however, it is part of the story on how I got 4 cats. The girls were doing great. They were eating well, gaining weight and were extremely happy which made me happy. It was such an amazing feeling to come back home from work and see them greet me at the door. And look how cute they were too!  However, all this happiness sadly ended one night when they were around 3 months old. The night little Oreo passed away. As they say, she crossed the rainbow bridge. I won't explain how it happened or add any details but all I can say is that I up to this day, consider it the worse day of my life. I had never, ever felt the pain I felt that night and until this day I remember it as if it was yesterday.  My family came immediately to be with me in this extremely difficult mome...

Many people ask me why I have 4 cats. Some say I'm insane, some think it is way too many cats for one household. So here is the 4 part story of how I got 4 cats... Whenever someone asks me if I own a pet, my immediate answer is yes, because I love letting people know I have pets. Then the two usual questions happen right after:  " What kind of pet? " " Cats. " " Cats? How many? " At that moment depending on whom I am speaking to, I really struggle to answer at times. When I say I have 4 cats, people tend to react in so many different ways. I've seen people freak out, people laugh, people step away from me, people yell and so on. If I have time I do briefly explain why I have four cats. It's not like I got them all at once nor did I ever plan or think about having four cats at once. So here's the story on how I got 4 amazing cats with me. In the summer of 2015, I was speaking to a friend about missing having pets at home. I was n...
