Picking Up Again
Hello dear readers! I realized today that it's been a little while since I last posted, my apologies. I went through a low point in my struggle with depression this month, so I needed to take some time to take care of that. I'm feeling good again, and I'm ready to blog! Tonight I'd like to update you, actually do another "Meet the Pets" about Mia, the cat I adopted last year after losing three dear pets in four months.
So, here it is:
Meet Mia: The Skittish Sweetheart
Adopted: May, 2006
Nicknames: Baby (pronounced like "beebee" in a high-pitched voice), Princess Mia, Baby Mia, Tufty Toes
Quirks: True to one of her nicknames, Mia has long white tufts of fur between the pads of her feet. They actually hinder her coordination a bit, but the fact that she has wide feet to boot contributes to that as well. She loves the other animals in the house, especially Pepsi. Her favorite toy is a little stuffed cow in a football uniform that was Mel's before she died. I think she likes the scent that Mel left behind on it. Mia LOVES to cuddle, but won't let us pick her up. She just goes into panic mode because she never had human love and attention in her years as a farm cat before she was taken in by a shelter. She has a squeaky baby meow that is almost irresistable when she's begging for more food. And she's COMPLETELY irresistable when she's asking for love.
Why We Love Her: Mia was near feral when we adopted her last May. She has made tons of progress since then and has proven that she can be the sweetheart I always knew she was. She makes a great addition to our house full of little pets, she's beautiful, loving, and deserving of the love we shower her with. Did I mention she's beautiful? And sweet? Ok, just making sure.
