Annnd the Inevitable Three!!!

Since we were having so much fun with the Terror Two, also known as Hime and Aslan,
my husband said, "Why not throw another one in the mix?"
He still believes in : "if something`s good, MORE IS BETTER!"
And I said,
"Why not?! Two is same as three!"
( It is! 2 is Plural, 3 is Plural, samething, right?)

And recently, I started volunteering at Cats Protection.

I always wanted to work with animals. Especially cats. Cats have given me so much in my lifetime, I wanted to do something to give back.
So why not volunteer at the place that brought me Hime and Aslan?
And now I had an ulterior motive....
Scout us the Third to join the Terror Two!!!

I met so many cats at Cats Protection. There were so many great cats.
Cute ones, friendly ones, ones with great character... When you get to know each cat, they are all special. I don`t think there is a such thing as an unlovable cat. And don`t get me started on kittens...

Candidate 1: Smokey Joe.

Great cat with character. Weirdo, talks a lot. He`d be purring, then hisses for no reason. One of the volunteers said, "Cats only act as humans treat them."
Someone was probably mean to him, so he wants to be nice, but ends up scared, so he hisses.
But he has learned over couple of weeks that I love him , so he comes to rub his head on my boobs. No more hissing! It means more to me because I gained his trust.
I would totally loved to bring him home.... but I didn`t think he`d get along with Aslan or Hime.... which was a big problem.

Candidate 2: Darnell.
He is a black cat, comes to perch on your shoulder, just like Hime does.
He perched on my shoulder the whole time I was cleaning his pen!
Man, wouldn`t it be nice to have 2 Parrot cats?
Didn`t get to take picture of him, he got adopted straightaway.....
I`m happy he found a nice home though.
.....................

Then.....
FOUND THE PERFECT CAT!!!

He was named Simon.
Fluffy black cat,
friendly, klutzy, and cuuuute!
(why are all the cool cats black cats, by the way?!)
When I was looking for cats that grooming, I proprerly met Simon,
He is an irrisistable furball!


I noticed that when he was playing, he had a cute klutziness about him,
kind of quiet but playful. When he`d play with the ball, he`d be 3 seconds too slow.
I thought Hime would like him, being a quiet quirky cat herself.
And he wasn`t a Manly-man, so Aslan wouldn`t feel threatened.

Trying to take picture of him, he keeps coming up to my face, purring!!!
I`m in love ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

He was reserved by this family, and I was so disappointed!
I went to go say good-bye to him before I left for the day, I thought I would never see him again , going with his new family :(

But....... for some miraculous reason the people who reserved him didn't come to get him, and when I went to volunteer week after, he was still there!!!!

"What is he still doing here?! Can I pleeeeeeeease take him home?!"
I asked.
And the people at Cats Protection said, "Have him!!"

It`s like having a crush on somebody and you find out that that person likes you too!

Yessssss!!!!!
