A Little Background on my Cat

When my previous cat got cancer and had to cross the rainbow bridge, I was devastated. The following weekend I decided I had to have another cat in my life. We went to the local pet adoption and as soon as we walked in the door, I saw this gorgeous lynx point cat in a cage. He had the most beautiful big blue eyes that made me just melt. He had a big drain hanging out of a wound in his left flank, and I was told he'd been attacked by a coyote. Well, he had me at "Meow." And he's been meowing and talking and bossing us around ever since! He healed up nicely and he rescued me when I was so sad and helped me heal, too.

What Were the Circumstances of the Photo?

I let him out on my little patio to catch a little sun and fresh air. He thought he should be able to leave the patio to explore the real world. He was telling me how unfair I was being not letting him roam.
