On this day in 2007,
SAVE (an animal shelter in Princeton, NJ) brought a few cats to this PetSmart, to have them up for adoption.
By chance, Hubs and I happened to go into this PetSmart after lunch, just to see some animals.
Going to pet shops or pet-sitting was one of favourite past-time, as we didn't have a pet for a 3 years, then.
I was drawn to a really, very unhappy, fluffy Ragdoll sleeping in the bottom cage. He didn't open his eyes.
I was also drawn to a really, very sociable de-clawed tabby cat at a top cage. He played with us!
Normally, we walk out of the shops after having had my fill of "cat time".
But this time, Hubs said we *needed* to take one home.
That's true, we had to.
That was how Fluffy spent his first evening with us -- hiding.
Look at how young, slim, and handsome he was as a 3-year-old :D
We did not change his name; Fluffy is Fluffy.
P.S. He was given up to the shelter on his 3rd birthday. How heartbreaking is that?
