My husband had cats most of his life, and I learned that I loved them, too. When it was time to find a new companion for our cat Sven, I was excited to choose my first kitten. Our first shelter visit - no kittens! Then I saw "Dolly" at the nearby Oregon Humane Society, with one eye only partially opened due to illness as a baby. I dragged my husband to the shelter that evening to meet her, and we took her home.
Renamed Flickslanda, our Flick was a joy to older Sven in his later years. Sven taught Flick about all things cat related, retrieved her toys for her, and let us know when she was stuck in a closet. She survived a clumsy kittenhood (due to her eye problem) but is now an expert jumper.
Flick is my husband's lap cat and work mate, keeping him company as he works from home. She is a treasure to us both and the princess of the household!
