Cat Intro - Faith



You have no idea how hard it is to find pictures of Faith's pretty face! She is nearly always cuddling with Thomas - and upside down.  We make a lot of jokes about how regal and dignified she is. lol

We got her to be a companion for Thomas. When we went to the shelter the kittens were all crying and scratching at us through the bars. Then there was Faith. She didn't cry - just a couple normal meows. She rubbed up against the cage and invited pets - but didn't try to grab or scratch us. Her behavior was so different from the other kittens that I worried she was sick or something.

We were told she took a fall and may have had a broken leg. They had not done xrays or anything. I felt so bad for her that she was the one we picked and we took her to the vet before going home. Her leg was fine. The vet said maybe she had pulled a muscle or sprained something - but no broken legs and she was walking fine.

She likes to have "conversations" with us. She has a loud and raspy meow. We joke that she must be a closet smoker.  She is showing her age a bit more than Thomas. She never really was a zoomer - but she has definately slowed down and her movements seem a bit stiff every now and then. Her labs showed she's still healthy and we hope we have her and Thomas both for many years to come.
