   Hello, my name is Tommy. I was very lucky to be adopted by such a nice family. When I was only a few weeks old, I lost my mother and the other kittens from my litter. I am not sure what happened to them but it makes me sad to think about it. Back then I was very shy. I was very hard to catch as I was scared living outside by myself in a garage. But finally I gave in and thought if I did there may be brighter days ahead. When I came to my new home I could fit in the palm of your hand and was only skin and bones with very wiry fur. My female companion Libby who was only adopted one day before me didn't like me then. She would walk by me and hiss and tried to show her authority. I was so timid that I had to be kept in a box as I would run and hide under things.

    My, how my life has changed! I now live the life of luxury. I like to eat, sleep, watch the birds and then eat some more. I am a very expensive kitty as I have a special food I must eat, since I had problems with my bladder last year and had to spend two weekends in the hospital. Libby missed me then. I am a very big baby and spoiled rotten too. I have a special routine every day, I must be fed as soon as the first person is up in the morning, I have my morning snooze, watch the birds for a while and have my supper the same time every night and don't forget my snack before you go to bed. I am a very good friend as I don't like being all alone, I have to be around my family . My how I've changed since I first came but I am sure glad I made the decision I did.
