Good morning,
Today is Sunday August 17th and for those of you who are cat lovers, you will be able to understand what I am going to reveal. After loosing Max, it was very difficult to come home to an "empty house." I wasn't quite ready for a new baby so quickly, but I came across a rescue kitty and he stole my heart. I was surfing "Pet Finders" (a great website BTW for those of you looking to adopt a dog or cat) and saw a kitten I was interested in. I called the number listed and found out his foster Mom was getting ready to permanently adopt him. PetFinders.com is a site where animal rescue organizations place their adoptees in one location for everyone to see. I spoke with Chris from "Only Hope" cat rescue who said she had a beautiful part Russian Blue male who she was getting ready to show the next weekend at an adoption booth in NYC.
So, I loaded up and went over to take a look. I fell in love with him right away. Then when Chris told me the story of how they found him I knew it was the right thing to do. He was rescued from East Harlem, NY. "Only Hope" worked with him to help him understand that people were good and not to be scared of them. When they first saw him on the street, his ears were laying flat just like the wings of an airplane - hence they named him Pilot. Isn't that a riot? I am a flight attendant, and my cat's name is Pilot.
Pilot is a beautiful Russian Blue mix. I think the Russian Blue is the more dominant gene because he has the majority of those features. The one thing I forgot about a kitten is how much more active they are than a full grown cat! Pilot has so much energy; running around the house, jumping across the bed; leaping tall ottomans in a single leap - well you get the idea.
I wanted to let you all know that I have a new baby and his name is Pilot!
