(Paw Note: Live update on the new little kitty. I saw him this afternoon eating a snack I left for him but he's still pretty jumpy. He saw me then booked. Hey, whatever happens as long as the little fella comes on the porch and eats a couple of times a day, I'll be happy.)
The second he said that Ace stopped
the car, Casey’s map went flying, Baby woke up, Barney kind of passed out and
Smokey looked like she just got smacked.
All, except for Baby, were throwaways.
If you want to get technical about it Baby would’ve probably been a
throwaway because the house she lived in originally was abandoned a couple of
months after she came to live at the house and supposedly a lot of cats were
left there. (And just for a refresher-
Barney was rescued from a pound’s parking lot, Casey was found a couple of days
later under some mailboxes, Ace came around during a snowstorm and Smokey was
tossed out of a moving car.) So, the
point was, none of them would even think of abandoning little Tommy and Smokey
was very happy to inform him of that.
“Don’t worry, Tommy,” she said
anxiously. “We won’t abandon
anybody. We’re really glad that you’re
here.”
It was amazing how happy he looked
when he heard that. The funny thing is
he curled up in a ball and went immediately to sleep purring his guts out. It was one of those classic, nice, calming
purrs. As a matter of fact, it was so
calming that Baby went to sleep. Smokey
just leaned back and listened. Barney
just looked as smug as a kitty who just caught a mouse. Casey looked admiringly at the little fella
then looked at Barney. “Why were you so
secretive about this?”
