Kale
Hi, My name is Rosemary. I adopted a 5-month-old kitten from you through the Maplewood PetsMart on Sept. 24, 2009. He came to us as Kale, but we renamed him Jet. A number of weeks ago I had a delightful conversation with a volunteer named Bonnie, who had called to check in with us on our adoptee. I couldn't say enough about how much we love our Jet (or "Jetti"). I hadn't been looking for another kitty, because we already have two "girls," Sally and Abby, both 11. But when my daughter and I cast our eyes on Jet and had a little "chat" with him, I was bewitched! Oh my goodness! He was clearly so smart and unlawfully charming! So the next day was adoption day, and we've been having a blast with him ever since! He's a little over 10 pounds now, and he's very handsome. He's very lovey too - frequently asking to be picked up and held. And he's a champion purr-er! Super smart and very well-mannered. Full of spunk and very athletic. I've attached a couple of pictures that we took around Christmas time - one of him "chillin' " with Sally, and the other of him wearing the smart new collar he got for Christmas. Isn't he a gorgeous boy! (And he shares a birthday, April 17th, with my son who's soon to turn 16!!) My daughter has since gone to Costa Rica until June. So we recorded Jet playing one of his favorite games in the hallway with one of those fuzzy, sparkly balls, and we put it on YouTube so she could see him. Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGh-03wzkh4. (Pardon our mess ... house in the middle of several painting projects ... ). I hope you enjoy this update. We've always wished we could have seen him as a real little kitten, so if his foster mom has any pics of just him or him with any siblings/Mom (Eloise), we'd love to have copies! Thank you for such a wonderful, precious kitty! Feel free to share this happy story! We are smitten! Sincerely yours, Rosemary
