Gotcha Plus One

Yesterday was my gotcha day. This is one of the very first pictures taken of me. I was still unsure of what being in a house and having a bean to love was all about. That has certainly changed. I now love being inside, and hate having to go outside.

I have started to sleep on Mom almost all the time on the couch, and I love to lay on her and turn my head up towards her so that I am looking at her upside down. I also have started to sleep with her more than I used to at night. I will sleep on the bed, but haven't really liked to touch her when she's asleep, which Mom thinks is funny, since when she is out on the couch, I love to come up and sleep next to her. I love to sleep on my back cuddled up right next to her with all my feet resting on her. I refuse to do that in bed tho.

I asked Mom for a special gift this year for my gotcha/birthday. I asked Mom to donate some money for the kitties and woofies that were left hurt and homeless in Japan. We donated through World Vets. We are purring for all the animals and beans in Japan and everyone affected by the tsunamis all across the Pacific.

My Gotcha Day


Hi, Gracie here. Wow, I can't believe it's been a year since I was gotcha'd. A year ago, I was living out in the desert where anything could have eaten me, and only given the very basics of care and attention. Now, I am my mama's spoiled baby girl, and have all the food, love and attention a girl could want. I also gained 2 brothers and 2 sisters when I was gotcha'd, even though one of my sisters ran off to the bridge. The big one is still here though, and loves me to sleep with her. I have also gained friends from all over the world whom I love very much. I think I was very lucky the day I tried to eat some food in a box that captured me. I love my new life and love that I was gotcha'd.
