Good afternoon, Kitty Mittens. Aren’t those baby swallows cute?

Marissa would swear that God answered her prayers when he sent Milo. It was a couple of weeks after Sassy disappeared. She had asked a dozen times for a new kitten and I kept saying later. Hubby saw a kitten on the road and thought it was Sassy so he called the kitten and called Marissa. Milo walked up to Marissa and put his paws on her legs as if asking to be picked up. She obliged and he was perfectly content. It was hard on all of us to lose him.

Today she picked an adult cat. She opened the door to the cage and picked him up. He was very lovable. She said .... “This is the one I want!” I kept trying to get her to look at a couple of younger cats but there was no changing her mind.

She asked the lady at the shelter if they were going to kill the ones that didn’t get a home. Now that was a tough one to answer. The girl looked at me and I told Marissa they would go to animal heaven. The girl tried to explain about too many kittens and since there was no one to love and take care of all of them, they were in a better place. Marissa kept asking about this one and that one. The girl told her she felt sure someone would adopt them.

She told me to tell you that she is going to name him Kitty Mittens. I had told her about Fang-Face and she asked if Angel-Face was a good name.

Don’t do too much .... take time to enjoy “Chocolate Caramel Day”.

Oh, Amy, that is So Sweet!! Tears Pricked my Eyes when I Read that she is Going to Name him Kitty Mittens! Marissa's New Kitty Sounds just Wonderful, Since he's So Lovable, and should be a Very Sweet Friend. My Fang-Face had a Very Sweet Temperment, and I had him Neutered so he would Stay Close to Home. He was my Very Best Friend for 12 Years. I had Another Kitty at the Same Time, a Grouchy, Grumbly, but oh-so-Sweet Kitty Named the Toy, because she was Very Undersized, and Looked Very Toy-Like. She was Fang's Boss, and Ruled over him with an Iron Paw, Lol. He could have Flicked her Away Like a Bug; he was Twice her Size! But his Sweet Character just Put Up with her Short Temper and Eccentric Ways.

That would have been a Hard Spot to be in when Marissa Asked about the Fate of the Kitties that wouldn't be Adopted. :( You and the Lady at the Shelter Handled it So Well, Better than I Probably would have Done.

I should have posted this yesterday.

(I think I sent this to ‘Dita when she lost her kitty.)

Where do pets go when they die?

There are also many scriptural verses regarding how much God loves our earthly creatures.

**She had asked a dozen times for a new kitten**

Just be glad she’s not horse crazy like I was at her age and for many years after! Drove my parents nuts!

**I told Marissa they would go to animal heaven.**

Good answer! I’m with whoever said—if I get to the gates of Heaven and there’s a sign that says “No Dogs Allowed” I’ll just keep going!

Great graphics and poems as always—probably won’t have time to do much except lurk for the next while but thanks in advance for all the wonderful work you guys do!

Hey! Can we have chocolate day again—every day?! Not that I’m greedy or anything! LOL Hope y’all enjoy the hot fudge sundae cake!
