Mimosa the Gentle Kitten

Dear Catherine, It's been almost two months since the little orange tabby formerly known as Mimosa came to live with me... and I couldn't be happier! There are no words to describe how awesome little Calvin is. From his sweet spirit to following me around the house to cuddling and purring like crazy, he is an instant hit in the family. As the fates would have it, when I saw my vet for Calvin's intake and shots, we discovered that my 16 year-old PRBJ kitty, Shalimar, was dying of liver failure. What a heartbreaking and unexpected shock to be so happy on the one hand and so sad on the other. Calvin was a delight to Shalimar in her final weeks and kept her company with kind snuggles. Shalimar passed three weeks ago. Lily and Bailey, my other two PRBJ adoptees are thriving along with Calvin and everyone gets along. Calvin is still learning his role in the household but it is clear that everyone lives in harmony. It's especially cute at dinner time, as the three of them sit around the food bowl so politely taking turns eating, with no fussing or disagreements whatsoever. Just wanted to give you an update and also ask if you could pass it along to Mimosa's former foster mom and dad. I had hoped to hear from one of them to exchange pictures and would still very much like to be in touch with them if they are willing. Kind regards, Amanda
