We rescued 2-year-old Chip on my husband's birthday 13 years ago. We lost our sweet Chip on Super Bowl Sunday, 2019. We also lost my mother and two very dear friends between July and February. I was depressed, and became physically ill; when Chip passed away I was inconsolable. As fate would have it, my husband had an appointment Monday morning after the Super Bowl. He was so upset he told the told the fellow he was meeting with about losing Chip just hours before their meeting and showed him a picture of our dear boy. This lovely fellow said; "I have just the cat for you! His name is Michelangelo." He had recently rescued the young cat along with other animals from a home where the owner was unable to care for them. The Pascoe County Humane Society where he volunteers is open Thursday through Sunday. We had not thought about adopting so soon, but we made the over-an-hour drive on Thursday morning to meet Michelangelo, who we adopted and is now Petey. Petey is such a fun, sweet, loving little fellow who has helped me be happy again. Petey was very sick his first two weeks at home with us with an upper respiratory infection. After he recovered, he was ready for so many new experiences. Petey was a year old on April 28, 2019, and is now an seasoned motorhome traveler.
