This
is Grandma. We don't really know her age for sure, she is eighteen or nineteen
years old. Grandma and I met when someone dumped her by my house. She was
young and very pregnant. At the time, I had a cat in the house who would
not accept another cat. So, Grandma lived outside. Her name then was
Little Momma because she was expecting. She had her babies in a box on my
porch. She was a great mom.
She became named Grandma when she and one of her daughters had litters
just a week apart. Both litters lived in boxes on my porch. Grandma and
her daughter took turns taking care of each other's babies, even nursing
them. I did finally get Grandma spayed. It took a while because she kept
getting pregnant while still nursing babies, the scamp. We finally
prevailed, though.
Time passed and now Grandma lives in the house with me. She now has 6
brothers and sisters. She is for sure, the queen of the house. She is now
in her senior years and can hardly see. She stays in my bedroom most of
the time but still finds her food, water and litter boxes and treats just
fine. She even still gets on the bed for a snuggle with me. She is still
one of the sweetest tempered cats I've ever known.
I keep the other cats out of that room. She deserves her space and peace
and quiet after all the years and adventures she has had. She is so dear
to my heart. I treasure the time we have. I know our time together will
end way too soon but will tell her every day how much I love her.
