Creature Corner: September 8, 2016
Last week in “The Days of Our Nine Lives,” the ARF cats met two new ARF dogs and two new adult cats.
Grace: Hi, I’m Grace. Heard you talking about me. I’m so glad to be here, but sad because my forever mom can no longer care for me, King Kitty and Girlie.
Leia: We’re sorry. We all hope you all will be happy here.
Bobbie: So, King Kitty is the new office cat, I hear.
King Kitty: (Peering through the cattery window) Yes, I’m the office cat now, so I know everything that’s going on. For instance, we have kittens!
Bobbie: Noooo! Say it ain’t so!
Annie Oakley: It’s so! I’m Annie, and here’s my sister Calamity Jane.
Calamity Jane: Hi! I know you’re all wondering how we got here.
Annie Oakley: I’ll tell!
A nice lady in Garner Valley found us in a ditch, and we’re so glad she did!
Girlie: Wow. And I thought my story was sad. At least I had a forever mom ’til she got sick.
Leia: Hey, Traveler! How are your burned paws doing?
Traveler: I am so much better, thank you. I think I’m ready to join a forever family. I’d love one with a playful pup to be my friend.
Girlie: And I’d like a family who is kind of quiet, where I won’t be alone too much.
King Kitty: My perfect forever family wouldn’t have any other cats.
Grace: My perfect forever family would just want to give me lots and lots of love.
Leia: I think the perfect forever families for any of us would be ones that want to love us, care for us, and make us real, true members of the family.
Bobbie: Amen.
