Two litters came in at the same time for a total of 14 kittens. All were sick!

Missy did not recover but the others did recover and were adopted out.

I went to the shelter and there she was in the isolation room and the next day would have been her last day to live but, I adopted her instead.

She is sweet and smart and gets along well with my two tomcats. She spends hours playing with them every day and they are happy to have her as they were sad after the horrific death of poor Miss Julie.

She loves all people and is a door greeter when anyone knocks. She is loving and retrieves if you throw a toy, she'll bring it right back and drop it at your feet or if in you are in bed, she'll bring it and drop it next to your hand.

Luckily I arrived in the nick of time. NO regrets as all of the work & love have paid off and no sign of eye herpes thank god for that! Who needs that? I said NO and stuck to my guns on that DX. Idiots many of them are and no, we aren't going back anytime soon, that is my personal guarantee!
