Desiree

This is our latest, Desiree. We didn’t adopt her, she adopted US. Earlier this spring, we went outdoors to add food to the outside kitty feeding station, and there she was.

She began to talk to us, expressing initially her displeasure at not having anything to eat. After feeding her, she wandered out of the feeding station and began talking to us again, this time she wanted some attention/affection. She was purr-eowing so loud it was quite amazing.

We petted her and made sure she was OK. She went and laid underneath a cover we have over our basement doorway.

The next day, she was still there, and wandered up to greet us. We decided at this point we would take her to the vet for a quick check up and some shots.

The vet assured us that she was healthy and gave her the rabies and another combo shot. We also asked her to see if kitty was pregnant.

The ultrasound didn’t show anything, so we took her home. We tried to let her go outside, but she INSISTED on coming in, and within a few hours, it was as if she’d always been here.

Our concern about her pregnancy remained, however, so a couple weeks later, after noting that she was eating quite a lot, we took her in for a second ultrasound, and to see if she had worms.

The new ultrasound showed 3 KITTENS!. It seems that our intuition beat out technology, and we are quite happy that we will have some brand new babies in a few weeks to watch grow. Color us happy.

And Desiree is a jewel. She’s the happiest of cats, and seems to love all her furry siblings. She has the most even disposition (knowing new mama’s as I do, I’m sure that will change soon, at least in the short term)
