And I present to you...Mr. Snuggles







This is Mr. Snuggles. A stray cat, A.K.A. Hank reincarnated as Emilee pointed out to me, who could not have been any closer to our front door one very cold winter day end of January (if he were any closer to it he would have been on the other side of it, in the house!). He really did have alot of the same habits as my precious Hanky-poo had (like beg for food! have you ever met a cat that begged for food!???) Anyway - i rescued this cute cute cat, fostered him for the next two months (don't worry about the pregnant thing - per my baby doctor you basically gotta rub their cat poop in an big open wound of yours to get the overly warned rare condition of toxomosis from a cat, sounds pleasant huh!). Other foster parent duties of mine included wrapping him up every single day in a towel & fed him medicine from an oral syringe like a little baby (eventually the towel was not needed, he would happily come to my lap and take his medicine), feeding him and SNUGGLING with him on the couch all the time. That's where he got his name - he was quite the snuggler. I'm happy to say Mr. Snuggles has been adopted by some friends of mine, Barb & Gene, pictured above holding him along with Barb's mom, and i'm so happy to hear that the three of them absolutely ADORE him. And i've already been there to visit him, i do miss him, but i certainly do not miss that litter box!
