Hi, my name is Precious. I was born November 6, 2005. Someone dropped me off at C.A.R.E. in Ruskin. There was this lady who came by to see me and I fell in love with her and wanted to go home with her. She came by every day to see me and I knew she was going to be my new mommie. A few days before I got to leave with her, she came by and played with me and loved me. When she got ready to leave, I thought she wasn't going to take me, so I followed her all the way to the door and stayed looking out of the glass window hoping she would come back in. When she left I felt so sad and blue for I wasn't going home with her. A few days after that she came back and I left with her. When we got in the car I was frightened and cried - she kept talking to me and telling me we were going home. I stopped crying after a while for I felt she was going to keep me.

I will now tell you my story, how happy I am. When we got home she took me into this large bathroom and showed me my new litter box and my pretty food and water bowl. She wanted me to eat but I was afraid she would leave me so I stayed right by her side. My new mommie got down on the floor and let me get in her lap and hugged and kissed me and told me how much she love me. I still wouldn't leave her so she get on her knees and put her hands on the floor and crawls to my food and water bowl. Puts her fingers in the food and I stayed behind her till I could see she wouldn't leave. I crawl between her legs, she stay there for me to eat then she put her finger in the water bowl and I knew it was water so I started drinking. When she moved her hands I stopped so she stay till I finished. Then she sat down and I crawl into her lap and she played with me and rubbed my body and talked to me for about 45 minutes. I began to feel safe. I got in my carrier case and slept and she got up and went into the other part of the house. She came back about every 20 minutes or sooner and talked with me. I am very happy she took me home with her for she is so kind and loving to me. I have all kind of toys I play with and she plays with me a lot and talks to me. I get in her lap and lay in her arms and I feel so safe and loved. She is making a scrapbook of my life and takes lots of pictures of me. I lay on my back with my feet in the air and some time I'm on the pillow with my head on it. When I'm playing with my toys, here she comes with the camera and more pictures. I'm very happy and so thankful I have someone like her to love me and take good care of me.

I hope my little friends at C.A.R.E. are as lucky as I am and they have a good home and a loving mommie.

Hello to all the nice people at C.A.R.E. who took care of me while I was there. Also thanks to Dr. Ott for being my doctor. I really feel safe and my mommie likes him also for he's so kind to all of us.

Love,
Precious
