One day in August, 2 years ago, I met a lady with a female teacup yorkie. She had just (a few hours previous) adopted her at Suncoast Humane Society, Inc. The lady also told me the brother to her female was still available at Suncoast, as their human mother had passed away. Since my cat had died a year prior I had been thinking of getting a little dog that could go to work with me and be my constant companion. I thought, WOW!!! I called my downstairs neighbor and best friend Dan asking him if he wanted to go to Suncoast Humane with me to look at a “little boy” yorkie. Well, off we went….. Got there and found out the little boy had just been adopted. Darn, guess it wasn‘t meant to be!!!! While we were there we did looked at all the other dogs but they were medium and large in size and I live in a condo. Anyway, on our way out I thought, “oh well, I’d just peek in the cat room”. Many cats were walking around, rubbing against our legs and meowing but I was drawn down to the end of the long wall of cages to a cage with the information envelope on it saying “LOVE”. I asked the person in attendance why this cat was off by it’s self. Love had tested positive for worms, been treated and just cleared for adoption. I asked if I could see her out of the cage, Dan and I sat on the bench and the attendant handed “Love”to me and love it was!!! “Love” sat on my lap, put her paws on my chest, stared into my eyes and touched me all the way to my heart. She purred so loudly while other cats climbed all around us, she never moved or took her eyes from mine for what seemed like 15 minutes, then calmly she got up, stepped over onto Dan’s lap and did the same thing, never attempting to get down, not paying any attention to the other cats, just starring into our eyes. Well, the rest is history…”Love”, is known as the upstairs/downstairs cat!!! Dan and I both fell in love with “Love”. She now spends most of the day downstairs with Dan while I’m at work (psss, don’t tell anyone but they take their afternoon nap together in the recliner) then after I get home from work, we eat dinner, then “Love” goes upstairs with me for the night. I’ve had many cats during my life but the greatest of these has been “Love”.
