Today we took the plunge and adopted a 5 year old female seal point siamese called Maddy.

We didn't expect today to be the day. Since Felix died we could not picture ourselves ever replacing him. But then I started thinking... we had already given a home to a rescue cat, it seemed a pity to waste it.

So today Kevin checked the Boulder Valley Humane Society website to see whether any cats fitting our needs was available. That is when we found Maddy. Kevin immediately called me. What did I think?

I made a call and found out that Maddy was still there with no holds on her. She had been given to the Humane Society by her family. Apparently she had belonged to these people's daughter who had become sick and unable to care for her.

We filled out paperwork. We were shown into the catery where Maddy waited for us. We then had our first introduction with Maddy and one of the pet counsellors. We fell in love with this fur person.

And it wasn't long before Maddy was riding with us in our car home (to a very messy house.)

To her family her gave her up: Maddy is in a good home.  We will take good care of her...
