So as you know my gorgeous cat 'Baby' died 2weeks ago, and my other cat Kyla was looking abit lost and lonely without a friend so I decided in the near future I would get a new cat for her, in fact I was probabaly going to get a kitten, then whilst browsing online I came across George, at first I was like aaww he's looks like Baby and was the same age, then I got to know his story, he had been brought up from a kitten for the first year or so of his life with drug addicts that fed him old KFC bones or just left him, their neighbour eventually took him off them and rehomed them but as George is quite fluffy the guy had allergies and couldn't keep him which was quite sad as you could tell he had really got attatched to him.
At first I was umm-ing and aah-ing as I thought it was abit awful to just get another cat that looked just the same as I never want to replace Baby and never could but then I thought that's not this little guys fault, George and Baby were the same age but they have had very different lives, Baby was always fed well/treated/spoiled and given 110% love and care whilst poor George has had a very different rough start that he didn't deserve, so been the animal lover I am I couldn't say no to George. He's been with us since yesterday he is still getting used to everything and seems abit sad and quiet at the moment but it is all change for him so that's understandable, I hope with our care and attention he blossoms and learns to trust, here he is!.....
He does look the same been black and white but all his markings are different and he is way more white than Baby was and has a different type of fur, although I think my neighbours did get a shock when they saw him in the window earlier, they thought they were seeing Baby/A ghost cat LOL.
Like I said I could never replace Baby and I still am upset and will always have in my heart but at least now a bad thing has turned into a blessing for another little animal.
Also wanted to share this drawing that someone on my facebook did of me, the first image is the photograph he was copying from....I think it is fantastic! Big thank you to Martin, how talented is he!! :)
