It's our newest roommate, Bella's birthday today! She's 11 years old!
She has only been here just over a week, but Delilah and I have opened our home to her. Currently we are fostering her, but if all continues to go well, we will be adopting her soon.
Bella's story is a little sad, and we think she misses her human a lot. She lived her entire life with a man who, in the last couple of months, was put into a hospital to live because he had Alzheimer's disease. His daughter, who apparently is not much of a cat person, wanted to have Bella put down, but was too 'busy' and left her alone in the house for a week before she brought her to the vet. Of course, the vet didn't think she should be put down, so he contacted a local rescue to see if they would take her in. Just before she came here, she was shaved because of a few mats in her fur, which we think might be why she is so shy. As much as we hate what she has gone through, we are so happy she's here with us now. She really loves Mommy and The Ball Guy and she is slowly coming out of her shell.
She also loves tuna, so we'll have plenty of that, and of course nip and toys to play with, so you're all welcome to come celebrate with us and welcome our new sister!
Happy Birthday, Bella!
Samson

Happy Birthday Bella! I brought you a present...a big sock! ::wink::
It's one of my favorites so I hope you enjoy it. We want you to be happy!
Happy Birthday Bella! We wish you many more years of happiness and love as a Monkey!
Bella's story is very sad but we're so happy the vet made sure she went to a rescue. Just thinking about what that daughter wanted to do made our mommy all leaky but we are so happy that she is with you now!
Happy birthday Bella! A bad lady took us to the vet to be put down too, but the vet said no way, thank goodness. We love our new furrever home so much, and our mom would never dream of abandoning us. We hope life continues to get happier for you.
Happy birthday, Bella! And purrs to Delilah and Samson for welcoming you into their home.
Happy 11th Birthday, Bella!
We are 100% sure that your human misses you as much as you miss him. It's a shame that it wasn't possible for you two to stay together in some kind of catfriendly caring facility. It's hard to adjust to a new life after so many years, but we know that you are in good hands. Take your time and just start by enjoying your special day.
Many purrs to you,
Siena & Chilli
Oh, Bella, your story is so sad, and we know it's all too common, that this happens. We're so glad the vet contacted a rescue group!
But now you have a wonderful foster/probable forever home and we hope you celebrate many, many more birthdays with Samson and Delilah and Sweet Pea too.
Lots of kitty kisses from us and big smooches from our human...Happy birthday, Bella!!!!
Poor Bella! You're in the right place now. Once you settling in you're sure for a happy and well loved life.

Hi Bella! Happy Birthday! It's so wonderful that you've found a new forever home and appear to be adjusting.
Don't worry, your floof will grow back and you will be more lovelier than you are now.
Happy Birthday Bella. We are sure glad the hoooooman found you and brought you home. Too bad about you other hoooman. But it sounds like you have a good home now.
Have lots of nip today and enjoy your special day.
Happy Birthday, Bella!
We is so glad you finds a great home to live in. We purrs it can be your last furever home.
Has a wonderful day purrty girl!
Happy Birthday, Bella! We are so happy for you to be there with other kitties and folks who already love you. It's great the vet saved you after your human had to leave you. It's sad he couldn't take care of you any more, but you're safe now.
Happy Birthday Bella! So glad you have a new home. So many children just put down their parent's pets when the parent dies or get old! Didn't they learn to care for animals from their parents I wonder?
Happy Birthday Bella! I'm sure that soon you will become an official Monkey. It's a shame you and your human had to be separated but you're in a wonderful home now so relax and have fun!
Happy, Happy, Happy Birthday, sweet and beautiful Bella.
We think it would be the most wonderful birthday gift to get adopted by The Monkeys!!!!!!!!! You deserve only the best, sweet Bella.
