Formerly Feral Friday

I like dis spot. Dat is dad's old body pillow, he din't want it anymore so mom washed it and put it on da back of da couch to use fur naps and stuff but I've taken it over. Oh yeah, dat formerly feral thing...I was, not anymore.
Tell dem more Sadie...::I don't want to, I want to take a nap now:: Do you mind if I tell dem? ::nope, as long as yoor quiet about it so I can sleep:: Okay. Mom believes dat Sadie was at some time in her early, early life a pet, but, she ended up liveing outside by our frend Alli's house when she was about 6 months old. Alli fed her, but she would always run away when she tried to touch her. After a couple weeks out der Sadie hadded kittens, den one by one da kittens died... a couple months later Sadie had another litter, she was only about 9 months old then. Alli decided dat Sadie and her little fambly hadda be cawt, so one day while Sadie was out hunting she took all da kittens and put dem in a open carrier and put a trap in front of it wif da back door open. Well, Sadie came back and went right in to dat carrier to feed her hungry kittens. Den Alli took her to da shelter mom worked at and after a few months all of Sadies babies were adopted. Sadie had a little trouble because she would hide under her bed when ever beans came to look at her. One of da ladies sed she was too unfrendly and would never find a home and also called Sadie a "shady lady" and a "loose woman" and mom din't like dat so she sat by Sadie's cage every day and talked to her. After a while Sadie started sitting out by da edge of her cage to lissen to mom. Den dey sed dat dey were gonna send her away because she wasn't getting 'dopted and mom sed NO YOOR NOT and her and daddy took Sadie to live wif dem. Dat was Valentine's Day 2001 and she has been here ever since. Oh, and mom got Sadie to "come out of her shell" after about a year. She will even stay put when Uncle Gilbert, Jeff or da Nefew come over. Oh, and one of her sons live wif Jeff, he's huge and furry furry cute. Jeff calls him Monster, cuz he will walk on his hind legs and looks like he's doing da Frankenstein Monster Walk when he does. He's copying what da little woofie does.

We are so happy that Sadie has a good furever home. It breaks Mama's heart that there are kitties out in the world with no one to love them. Sadie was one of the lucky ones, yay!!

Loose lady? wt??? Prpahs she was mirroring her feelings about herself onto the innocent kitty.
Errrrr, it just irks me.
I am SO glad you got out of there and maw saw to do what was needed.
Those comments were awful and ridiculous.

We are glad your mum took you home from that shelter and gave you a lovely furrever home.
Our mum told dad off about his hands cuz she saw the oil all round his nails when she played the video back. He said he had just come in from working on the tractor and he had to go back out there again so he wuzn't scrubbing up furr the sake of 5 minutes.Mum gets mad at him sometimes.

Max said...

Oh wow...I'm glad your mom saw what other people didn't. Sadie is too sweet a kitty to be shunted off just because she was kinda shy...

I just don't understand people sometimes. =sigh=

That is such a sweet story with a very happy ending. Your mom and dad are wonderful people to have saved Sadie.

Angel MoMo and Charlotte said...

So glad that Sadie found a warm and loving forever home with your mom and dad. I really emphathize with Sadie because I was once a pregnant stray with nowhere to go until SS's mother took me in.
