Kyle and I had many discussion about our options. This year has been rough for us, emotionally, financially, we knew it would be a tough Christmas. We didn't want a kitten, we wanted a cat that had already been spayed/neutered and up to date on its shots. Also Bella would be afraid of a kitten, I know that sounds weird, but kittens go through crazy phases and that's just not for Bella at this time. She acts brave, but really we were wanting to find a grown cat that would be lovey and cuddly.
Once I got the final OK from Kyle I started hunting around for anyone trying to find a home for their cat. I came into work talking about it and Jonnie (my office manager) said, "Hey! I have the perfect cat for you, oh my god, I can't believe I hadn't thought of her!" Jonnie went on to tell me that down in Missouri one of her friends had a beautiful white cat wander onto their farm about a year ago. They took her in, nursed her to health, had her spayed and all shots done. Jonnie told me she was perfect for Bella, pure white with blue eyes.
Now I thought, this has to be too good to be true. Bella received a Furreal kitty that is all white with blue eyes for her birthday from her Aunt Jenny, and we could really get a cat that looks just like her!?!
Sunday afternoon Jonnie brought the cat home with her and I met her to get her picked up. I about died when I saw her, she was even more beautiful than I imagined, she was so sweet just purring and snuggling.
When we got home I put her in our bedroom and we had a gift wrapped for Bella with a cat collar and cat toy. Bella was confused at first and then I went to get the cat, Bella was SHOCKED and so, so appreciative and over the moon happy. We have video but I can't get it uploaded on here for some reason. When the cat came out of the crate she went right to Bella and was rubbing on her and purring :)
Bella decided to name her Princess Luna, and is she ever a princess! We gave her a bath the first night, she was so good. She is so soft, fluffy and beautifully white! She truly walks around the house like a little princess and is ready to give everyone some love, besides Tybalt.
Luna will take a while to get used to Tybalt as he just wanders around the house hunting for her because he wants to "play". Luna will figure out she is faster than him soon and I'm sure then she will enjoy teasing the crap out of Tybalt :)
Welcome to our home Princess Luna, we already love you so much and you are the perfect kitty princess for our little princess Bella :)
