Oh Yes I Did
November 25, 2012
After a month and a half of anecdotal research and weekly trips to the Oregon Humane Society, I found him. His name is Slacks. He’s 5 months old.
He is comfortable in his body and not scared and kind. Really kind. He presses his little nose firmly into my lips, against my eye. He stares. His voice is raspy. He rides on my shoulders and in a papoose.
We danced together last night, alone in the cabin with the bluegrass marathon on KBOO. I held him on his back like a baby, swinging him along to the music. He purred so hard he couldn’t keep his eyes open.
This morning he crossed everything off my to-do list and wrote “hold me” instead.
For you, anything.
Yay Slacks! You’ve got a great home. So glad you have him Emily. He’s adorable. Soooo cute. -And LOVE those ears! Love more that you just rescued a kc from the shelter!!!!
yayyyy! so glad you got a kitty! and he looks like a most remarkable specimen – i have a bit of a crush without ever having met him! congratulations!
