Before we get to Meowy Monday, I want to mention my Blogiversary Giveaways again. Today, for Meowy Monday, I'll be drawing a random name from my comments to give away a bag of Feline Greenies and a can of Pet Promise cat food. (My kitties love it. It has no rendered animals, no factory farmed animals, and no animal by-products, like fur or toenails, in it.) You have to comment to be included, though!
And now...
Since you've already met all four of my beautiful kitties, I now get to have guest ambassadors for Meowy Monday. This week's guest is Taylor Mae, one of my aunt's kitties.
Mimi has two kitties, and they look exactly alike. How, then, you may wonder, do I know that this is Taylor Mae (and not Pepper Ann)? Because she let me take this photo. Pepper Ann only tolerates men, for whatever jacked-up reason, and I don't qualify.
My cousin is a veterinary technician, and she is always bringing home injured, abandoned, or otherwise misfit critters (witness Woody the Woodchuck, who weighed at least 15 pounds and had not a single hair on his pink ass). She has the sad, unfortunate job of going to help with her county's euthanizations once a week; if I'm not mistaken, Taylor Mae was in the queue that day. How Beth chooses which animals she takes home to the Farm of Misfit Critters, I'll never know. I could never choose; I want to save them all, even though I know I can't.
Love a stray; neuter & spay!
You just made my day!!! Low and behold I see my precious girl on the internet!!! She, of course, only tolerates me at this point. She has become a Nini's girl....momma is only good for food and water right now. But, hey....I still love my kitties!!
Luv u Mimi

Oh that is awful. I, too, know it has to be done. But to look at that beautiful sweet face and to know she was in line to die is too much to grasp. She has no idea what was going to happen to her either. I can't express to you how much it hurts me. Every life saved is a blessing. There are not enough good people like your cousin (and your aunt and all of us cat people).

Taylor Mae is pretty. I like my Mommie much better than my Daddie. I do not know why.

She's so cute! I feel so sorry for your cousin having to help with euthanizations... I know it has to happen, but how terrible to be right there for it. Taylor Mae looks like a good 'un.
