Vincent the cat

Hello! As usual I wasn't posting for a long time :-)

In my first post in year 2011 I’ll tell you a story of poor cat. Don’t worry, it will have happy ending.

Second week of November 2010 was pretty cold here. It was rainy and temperature at night was falling down to 2-3 degrees celsius. On one day I was awaken by loud meowing and saw cat sitting on my porch. He definitely wanted to get in, but of course I ignored him (there are many cats from neighbourhood visitng our garden) and continued my sleep. Later on the same day same cat was found sleeping in a card box in our garage. We allowed him to stay there for a while hoping that he will eventually go home.

Next day cat was still in garage and didn’t wanted to go anywhere. He got out of the box and was meowing at everyone he saw. Poor guy was very filthy, very skinny and very friendly. At that time we thought that he was lost or that someone threw him away. We feeded him and I started looking for a new home for him.

After two weeks poor guy finally found his new home… my home. I decided to keep him. I took him to the vet, bought him more cat food, cat toys and litter box. Of course every cat needs a name so he got one – Vincent. He is part of our family now and I’m happy that I decided to save him. He is happy too! See for yourself :-)

And they sure know how to play with our feelings and emotions...

Hi Hawk - always good to see your pictures again. Cats seem to make very good photography subjects :D . I am glad you were able to give Vincent a home. I am sure we will see more pictures of him in the future.

Hawk, welcome on boad once again! : )

Vincent was right to be persistent at your door; noone else would think of shooting his photos and giving him an extraordinary comfort of a home. :D

He has wonderfully large eyes that pierce into one's being and a playful soul!

Doc, Birma, Yildiz - thanks! Vincent sure was lucky when he was choosing his future home. I hope he will be many many years with my family.

I've found my best cats were always abandoned strays, they just seem to be eternally grateful to you for taking them in!

Thats a very touching story Hawk.................

We have 3 rescue cats and they very much become part of the family.I firmly believe that evrey cat desereves a home, if we had the room, and more money, we would be willing to adopt more of them.

I hope you get many years of joy out of him :D :D
