Left Behind

I live with 4 cats. I have two tabby's. Lucky was found stranded across the street from my office. He wandered to my office and I immediately fell in love with him and he was not being well taken of.

I brought him home and he is a joy. He has many quirky behaviors, he is a biter and he licks himself silly when he is patted on his behind just in front of his tail. He is orange and white and so very fat.

I found my other tabby, Macie down the street from my house. She was dumped off by someone on a cold and rainy day. She was scared and very shy. It took several months for her to come out of the spare bedroom and begin to socialize. She is s runt and runs very fast. Her nickname is Speedy Gonzales. She is a joy to have around.

I can't imagine my life without them. Tabby's are so beautiful and I can't imagine why people would dislike them.
