My first home away from the streets below was a cardboard box lined with yesterday's newspapers. I objected to that arrangement instantly. I reckon from the onset I was an unwanted kitty ... it was still undecided if I could stay or if I should just be dumped back onto the streets below. The fact was, the house-keepers were concerned if I was 'toilet trained' and if I had fleas. Well, to be fair, I knew where to do my kitty business but hey, I've been roaming the streets since my first day here - of course I had fleas! But I had my trump card .... I had the biggest roundest brightest eyes this side of the block ... they're a luminous shade of copper gold .... and the softest shiniest coat of fur .... they're a silky shade of dark chocolate sable brown. Plus I had my playful cheerful mischievous friendly personality .... before they could think second thoughts, I had them wrapped round my soft paws .... |
