My Charlie
by Sandra Littlefield
(Columbia, SC)
Charlie was a feral cat that showed up at my house one hot summer day. He was very scared and skinny.
I started to feed him and in about 2 months he started to let me pet him. I finally got him to a vet only to be told he was FeLv positive. I was devestated. For you see, I was all ready in love.
He was 6 months old and only 2 lbs. I got him the proper care from the vet and Charlie is now 11 lbs and 2 years old. He is a jet black kitty with 8 white hairs on his chest. His fur looks like velvet. He is beautiful He has turned into one of the sweetest cats I have ever had. Very happy too.
You call his name and he starts to purr and he talks all the time. Very vocal. My vet says with the proper care he will live a long and healthly life. So far he is doing just fine. He is really a daddy's boy too. My husband is crazy about him. And he gets along very well with my other cats too. 5 in all. One very happy family..........
