Hello.  I wanted to write and tell you how much we love having Katie in our home.  We adopted Katie about thirteen years ago from your shelter!  Her name at that time was Carmella, she was about a year or a year and a half old (I can’t remember) and she was returned after being adopted as a kitten because her owner was afraid of her personality.  Katie is a Maine Coon mix, and definitely has a lot of personality!  At that time, my Maine Coon had just died and I was heartbroken for some time.  I saw Katie on PetFinder and her eyes spoke to me.  The very next morning, my daughter and I came to Meow and were told someone had adopted her.  But there was some confusion over who, and as it turned out, she was still there, nobody had been interested in her.  She hid behind the toilet in your rescue’s bathroom and was extremely timid.

We adopted her that day, brought her home, and she immediately took charge of the house.  Her favorite activities include what we call the “jump & bump”, she loves bumping heads and will jump up to do so.  She loves being held and cuddled, and is a very vocal sweet gal.
 
After seeing the stories recently about the cat without ears being adopted, it made me think to stop and write and tell you that all these years later, as Katie is becoming a senior citizen and greatly slowing down, I still love and adore her and she’s led a GREAT life 🙂
 
Sincerely,
Karen Erikson
