Thankful for Taffeta Angel Kitty-ActiveRain Thankfulness Contest Day 6
by Silicon Valley REALTOR Michelle Carr Crowe
Many people love and enjoy their pets-dogs, cats, birds, fish and more. We've had many kitties over the years as former foster parents. Our most beloved kitty is Taffeta Angel, our nearly 20-year-old Flame Point Siamese. She is the last one standing from all of the kitties we've loved.
Our children Marlena and Mo adopted Taffy and her brother John (a personable orange and white kitty who'd ride on your shoulder) from a rescue organization when they were young.
Quieter than John, Taffy was the avid huntress-those laser pointers had nothing on her! She'd make a strange clicking sound while hunting that we later learned is a way cats hypnotize their prey.
From the beginning she'd always suffered from a chronic eye infection, which is still ongoing. The poor thing has to suffer us dosing her four times a day-two of those times with refrigerated drops in the eyes. Yet she still loves us.
She's gone deaf in the past few years and is even more of a cuddle bug. If someone heads to the bedrooms, she is eagerly following them, hoping to snuggle in for a nap. You can see she loves to cuddle right up close, even literally hugging you. Steve and I fight over who gets to enjoy what I call "Taffy time".
