It's My 7th Gotcha-Day!

Holy Toledo!! (What's Toledo? Why is it holy? I dunno, but I digress...)
(oh, I was a cute little kit!)

Today is the seventh anniversary of this:

 It's my Gotcha-Day! The day I got my Forever Home. The day I got my Mom! (She thinks it's the day she got me. She's wrong, but I won't correct her.)

My Mom loves me a lot and gives me lots of cool stuff, like this heated cat cup.  Mostly she loves me even though I don't come when she calls me, don't sit in her lap, sleep next to her at night, or let her pick me up, trim my claws or snorgle my belly.

Which is kinda amazing, when you think about it. I really do love her, even though I don't show it the way most cats do. I'm lucky to be alive, and I know it. I'm REALLY lucky I have such a terrific Mom.

Yup, today is a really great, really important day in my life. I'm happy to be here, living with Mom, in New Hampster, and happy to have such wonderful friends in the blogosphere.

Happy Gotcha day Miss M. Don't worry, I am not very hugable either, but like you I come and sit on mums lap very occasionally, sleep with her every once and a while, and do not like being picked up. Sisters I tell you.

Happy gotcha day! We're so glad you got gotted! And even if you don't do all that lovey dovey kitty stuff, I'm sure your mom knows you love her!
By the way, Toledo is the city I live in! We're not sure but it seems we got the "Holy Toledo" thing because there are so very many churches in the city! We also have more dirty book stores per capita than any other Ohio city so I guess we're glad they didn't use THAT for our nick name! Weird combination huh?

Happy gotcha Day, darling Millie. We don't comment here very often, but you were kind of our interduction to kittie bloggs and kittie bloggers, so we think about you a lot.

Love that second photo. Looks like you're checking out the car, trying to decide if you're going or not.

Happy Gotcha Day and Blogoversary, Millie! I remember when you picked out your Mom and it's hard to realize that it was seven years ago. I didn't even have any kitties then.
