Although we didn't have a blog back then, we followed your story from the day Karen Jo first saw your flier. We admired her for thinking about taking on such a large and scary responsibility after the time she had just been through, and we were so worried about you when you were not doing well. It just makes us purr and purr to know how well you are doing now. <br /><br />Fuzzy and Zoe (and mom Jana)OKcatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198562425311082919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8986132145207908217.post-34960401740824937282010-09-26T07:10:08.674-06:002010-09-26T07:10:08.674-06:00Herman, we wish every cat was as lucky as you bein...Herman, we wish every cat was as lucky as you being adopted by a wonderful loving human.

Problem with Taz is that she had been an only and to suddenly find herself in a cage, surrounded by other cats, scared her. When mommy went to see about getting a new kitty from the shelter(one of her's had died) she had her eye on a little young boy kitty but after talking to one of the staff and sleeping on it, she went and got him on Christmas Eve. They had to put on leather gloves to get her in the carrier, she was so upset and scared. <br />Taz lived in the spare room for a long time and learned to trust mommy. Still, sometimes, she'll hiss and slap out with her claws but most the time, she's mommy's princess and she gets along fine with the boys.<br />We are all happy that Herman found a good home and that he had good people looking out for him.<br />Taz, Runt, Charles and mommy, Anna, in Illinois3 kats and a kwiltrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06404680509184814698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8986132145207908217.post-60267276648134894002010-09-25T10:58:16.011-06:002010-09-25T10:58:16.011-06:00YEAH Herman!
