Lucky. Share your life with a wonderful companion and make this Holiday one that you won’t forget.
One of the best things about working for Pets911.com is that I receive all sorts of wonderful letters from people. Today I received a letter from Jane L. that I want to share. Her message of the love and joy that an animal can bring to a human is especially meaningful and poignant this year.
In 1992 I lost my first cat named Willie to cancer and I was heartbroken he was 13 ½ years old. When I lost him, I wept bitterly and couldn’t find the words to express the loss I felt for him. My husband couldn’t stand the pain that I was in so he went to a shelter and bought Lucky for me he was a domestic short hair white cat and had blue eyes and he purred so wonderfully he soon filled my heart with a song.
I kept Lucky for a very long time and he was not very docile he would climb telephone poles and everything he could find. He was taken around the neighborhood with a leash and walked everywhere with us. He even had a summer home and frequented trips to the seashore. He never left my side and one night he darted out the door and I couldn’t find him. I sent out flyers and emailed everyone that I could think of and to no avail. I sent people to the shelters and emailed them also looking for Lucky.
After one month of looking, I finally found him under a car full of fleas, dirty and full of grease. We took him to the vet and he gave him medication and he is still very fine and healthy. We will never let him out by accident again!
Share your life with a wonderful companion and make this Holiday one that you won’t forget. There are too many animals out there without homes just take a walk around your neighborhood at night and see how many are lost or wandered off somewhere.
Take one home with you please.
Thank you for listening,
Jane L
