Happy 1️⃣8️⃣th Birthday to my sweet baby boy: Dwight Howard Schrute

Around 12 years ago, I lost my first cat (Gaylord, RIP) and a few weeks after he crossed the rainbow bridge, I felt sad and decided to go to my local rescue to hang out with some kitties and cuddle with them to feel better.

Little did I know that my soul animal was there waiting for me.

I was wandering around the cat area of the shelter, holding an orange kitty who I honestly considered taking home with me. But then I decided to ask the shelter volunteer “What cats have been here the longest?” And she told me “Oh, this guy, his name is Micky. He’s 6.” And pointed to (who would become) Dwight.

Dwight was in his cage, with his four paws stuffed into a shoebox, his body / fur spilling over the sides, and his head pulled into his shoulders. He was staring at me, absolutely terrified, with two big eyes looking at me like ⚫️🔺⚫️

I immediately fell in love and adopted him.

So here we are, 12 years later. We’ve been through my final year of high school together, all of college, sneaking into my dorm room, at least 7 apartments, several heartbreaks, periods of deep depressions, periods of absolute bliss and joy, career changes, a world pandemic, getting my first dog… you get the idea.

And every single one of those years, every single night, he’s been by my side, curled up in my arms as my little spoon, snoring and drooling on my arm. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. :)

So happy birthday to my little old man, my furry king, my sweet baby angel. Here’s to 18 years bubba.

Leo (aka Dr. Spaceman) is a Stage-5 daddy’s boy.

At the time of my last post here a couple of months ago, Tigger was weighing in at 28lbs. Today he got on the scale and he is down to 26.4!

We could not be more proud of him and his progress! When we brought him home a year and a half ago he was 35lbs. His hard work, diet and exercise are paying off and it is almost time for his 10 pounds down party!

The last three pictures are from when we first got him and he was his largest

The first two are a month old pictures, the others are when I first found him.

It’s so funny that they’ve never swapped spots before. Not once

One of my current fosters! She's soooo cuddly and precious. Very licky, too. She licked my eye yesterday.

Please don’t mind the toys and single sock, his little orange brother likes to drag every single toy (and one of my socks?) into the kitchen so that he can hide them under the fridge and stove.

Also I know my SIC is very heavily overweight. This was a result of his previous living situation. He has lost 7lbs since he has become a part of our family last year and his vet says that he is in perfect health outside of his weight!

We had an at home Christmas wedding in December and my SIC absolutely stole the show! She was such a goofball throughout the entire ceremony. It’s Luna’s world, we’re just livin’ in it

Bella went missing 6 days ago. Tonight she was caught inside the local church on the table stealing pancakes after their team dinner. Then she flopped around on the table demanding belly rubs.

She’s home now, and on house arrest.

Before you ask she’s desexed so she wasn’t off making babies with anyone.
