Mango
(who was named after the sweet fruit) was found by a friend of
mine in a dip hole when she was four weeks old. She took her in to
live with her three older cats - but they did not like Mango, so we
took her as our first child.
A year after she came into our lives I gave birth to beautiful baby
girl. Mango was amazing! When ever she felt threatened by her (babies
can be very ungentle....) she used to come to me, bite me gently, and
go away... a fair warning. Now three years later, they are like every
other pair of sisters - they like to quarrel, irritate each other etc.
I guess they will be best friends. Mango's favorite game is
"fetch" with an aluminum foil ball. When ever she wants to
play, she takes it out of her hiding place, throws it into our laps,
and starts ruining around. Mango is my cat of the year!!
