It was love at first sight!

My beloved grey calico, Emme
Well, this is the story: I had a beautiful little salt & pepper tabby cat. She was called Mischief. She was the light of my life. She was an indoor/outdoor cat. A stray dog, probably one of those gone to the wild, pack dogs entered my yard and bit her and she died.
When I told my daughter, she mentioned it to her kids. Her daughter said "Grandpa needs a kitty". Shortly thereafter, my grand daughter found an adorable long haired grey calico kitten whom they presented to me. I was hooked! This little 6 week old kitten absolutely stole my heart. I had no choice but to say YES! I want her. Please may I have her? My daughter and grand daughter said fine! We wanted you to have her.
The moment that little cat was placed in my hands, she licked my nose several times, ears folded back, as if to say, "You won't bite me, will you?" I've been hers for 3 and a half years now. (by the way, it's 5 litters of kittens, later, now! She's a really great mom cat. Her name is Emme. She's starring on the "moggies" website from the UK which cat lovers can really enjoy.

I was chosen by the sweetest little feline in the world! I'm all hers.
God bless you ~ Norm
