This
is my cat Rosie Roo, who I adopted from a rescue shelter when she
was nine weeks old. She is a sweet and cuddly little girl who has learned
how to shake hands! Adopting Rosie was one of the best decisions I have
ever made ... my life is so much better with her in it!
I decided to adopt Rosie after both my husband and my dog passed away
within fourteen weeks of each other and the house was just too empty and
silent. I went to a rescue shelter where I saw many beautiful cats and
kittens who were waiting for homes and then my eyes fell upon Rosie. She
was the smallest of them all and was sitting quietly in a bottom cage,
looking directly up at me. As soon as our eyes met, I knew that she was
the one for me and when the attendant put her in my arms, she
immediately started to purr. I brought her home that day and it has
been a combination of fun and chaos ever since!
Rosie is 90% pure love and sweetness but the other 10% of her
is unadulterated imp! She swats at my ankles when I climb the stairs,
she zings from room to room and bounces herself off of the furniture,
sometimes tipping it over in the process! She climbed my Venetian blinds
so many times that they became bent, so I had to replace them with pull
down shades. She likes to sit in the kitchen sink and play with the
dripping water and she likes to pull the sinks strainer out with her
paws. Her favorite toy is a little stuffed donkey that brays quite
loudly. She carries that toy around with her and every morning she
brings it into the bedroom and makes it bray to wake me up. If I still
don't get up after the hee-hawing has stopped, she will jump on me, walk
on me and meow in my ear. If I stop her from doing something she wants
to do, even if I am stopping her for her own good, she scolds me with
loud meows.Yes, there is no doubt that she is an Imp, but most of the
time she is just a cuddly little lap warmer who will follow me from room
to room and who sleeps with her paws wrapped gently around my neck. She
spends quite a bit of time talking to me with little chirping noises and
she likes to sit on the back of my chair and pat me on the head! Her
biggest accomplishment to date, is that she has learned to shake my hand
when I ask her to. It is so cute to see her put her little paw into my
out-stretched palm. Rosie Roo is also a strikingly beautiful cat. She
has pale green eyes and a sleek, shiny and colorful coat. She is a
wonderful friend and companion and I love her very much.
