Hi Everyone,
Pardon me for not writing in a while, but we have been busy getting ready for our new family member: Buddy!
As you may recall, I tragically lost my brother John to Covid at the end of August. As I slowly manage my grief for my poor brother, my heart is soothed by his beloved cat, Buddy, whom we have now adopted.
Yes, last Saturday was our Caturday, and honestly, Buddy is the most affectionate cat I have ever known in my life. He loves to snuggle, and I suspect part of that is because he misses John, but I know that John trained him well to be a sweet, caring cat. He is very fastidious, and doesn’t claw the furniture. He knows the meaning of ‘No, Buddy!’ but rarely needs to be scolded.
He is just a love bug, and I feel John’s spirit in him. If there is any silver lining from losing my brother, it is this little fluffy gift of love! Buddy may not know it, but he’s my therapy cat, and I think we’re all his therapy humans!
May you all find the joy of a good furry friend <3 . Thanks for your support.
My dear brother John with Buddy in 2020. Since Buddy is an indoor cat, this was a rare outing, and boy was he excited! John kept him in tow. 
He hid straight under the desk when he first came to us last Saturday, but before long… 
I’ve never known a cat that willingly likes to be held like a baby! 
What’s that? 
Sooo happy! 
He already has a favorite perch!
Off topic: Happy Thanksgiving!
