CeCe was just a tiny feral kitten in a neighborhood of feral cats. We do what we can, but the cats are wary of humans and rarely came near us. One stormy afternoon the day before Hallowe'en, we heard loud mewing out in the yard that went on for hours. We couldn't find her at first and got soaked trying, worried she might get sick. Then my husband looked out of the basement window and saw a skinny and scraggly bedraggled kitten shivering under a bush. When he saw my expression when I saw her, he immediately got a plate of food (from one of our 3 cats-don't tell!) and s-l-o-w-l-y coaxed her to come in the window, knowing I was already in love. It took some time for us and nurturing from our 19 year old Sasha, but CeCe has become an adorable, loving member of our family, who teaches our older girls new tricks every day. She was a gift and a blessing as we lost Sasha New Year's Day...when we're sad, CeCe is here to make us laugh again and fetches her toys just like her big sister did. She is mischievous, smarter than a 5th grader and eats all of her vegetables-asparagus and green beans are her favorites!
