Puddles


Well, hasn't the shelter been slacking lately? No new posts for quite some time. That is what happens when you leave a person to do a job which should obviously be performed by the most perfect of creatures, a cat.
I'm Puddles, aka Million Dollar Cat, or Lucky. My story is quite long and involved, it may take several blog posts to get you caught up.
It all begins with me showing up at the shelter, pregnant, with no way to look after myself or soon-to-be babies. Luckily I was given a warm kennel, lots of food, and some loving attention.
My babies were born with little fuss. And of course, I was a GREAT mom. I looked after those kittens so well, everyone remarked on what a sweetie I was. All part of the plan to get the staff to fall in love with my winning personality. I was doing so well at first...the dry and warm place to sleep, a nice place to raise the kids. But I started to feel not quite right. I was getting too skinny. Thankfully my kittens stayed plump. What was happening?

Whew, the first part of this story has tired me out. We'll pick up again very soon.

Love Puddles, a shelter cat.
