My 15th Birthday

  Thank you, Ann, for the lovely header and graphic!

Today, 15 years ago, I was born to Chocolate Baby (mom) and Little Tiger of Harbison (dad).  My dad was a red tabby Persian and my mom was a seal-point Himalayan.  As far as I know, I had one sibling, a brother.  We have no idea what happened to him and I sometimes wonder if he is still around and as happy as I am.

This is the first picture my mom has of me when she brought me home.  I didn't come to live with my mom until I was 12 weeks old.  I'll share more of my Gotcha Day story in December.  Wasn't I just an adorable baby?

I thought you would enjoy a little slide show of me as a baby.  I know I am a senior ladycat now and I am so glad that my mom took bunches of pictures of me when I was a baby and that she knows how to scan them and digitize them so we can enjoy them still.




For my birthday this year, mom bought a pet insurance policy for me.  She got it several months ago after I had my surgery scare and found a company that would still insure a senior ladycat.  She is only paying a little over $34 per month and there is no deductible and it pays 80% of the charges.  We can't use it for wellness care, but I have a feeling we may need it down the road.  We are really happy with Trupanion Pet Insurance.  This is a very important gift that my mom gave me and I love her very much.

Now, who's ready to party???  I've got some catnip, treats, and plenty of stinky goodness and crunchies!  I'll party until I wear out, then I'll take a nap and party some more.
