Trying to Adjust

To Whom it may concern:

Nearly five months ago, I stumbled across a front porch that had a bowl with a few pieces of food in it. I was famish...hadn't eaten for days...had almost dwindled down to nothing but skin and bones, so anything tasted good at that point! I even went as low as letting this strange lady sit with me while I purred for her. She seemed to enjoy it, so I thought why not! Can't hurt...I might even get some more food from it!
They continued to throw me pieces of scraps in that bowl...keeping me around only to hear my pur. Little by little they would persuade me to come inside from the cold and dark nights spent on the streets. They loved on me, trying to break down the walls I had up against being with people.
I was always the outsider though. I was out numbered by the other females in the house, one of which wasn't exactly pleased with my presence...and she daily reminded me WHO was in charge. She clearly stated that I was to stay away from her food! (as if I really wanted any of her food anyway!)
I tried to fit in. I would sleep on their bed, they would kick me out. I would try to get a drink of water and they would close the toilet lid and block me out. They've closed down the all you eat buffet bar here...locked the lid tight on it! Now I have to wait to eat! I never could measure up to what they wanted!
Don't get me wrong, I like it here. I think it's just going to take some time for me adjust to this domestic lifestyle. Until then, I'm still here...working on it.
Please send food!
Sincerely,
Garfield Von Snouzer

ps. They may try to post pictures to incriminate me...but don't be fooled...they are all photo shopped! I would NEVER just lay and relax like that! I am a tough, wild kitty!




am I cute or what??
