The Story of Mrs. B - Part Four

After her death, I missed Kalahari a lot. I just moved to the US about 6 months earlier and my apartment felt very empty after she was gone. So I decided to adopt another cat. I went to PetSmart and chose a beautiful young tabby cat (before Mrs. B all 5 my previous cats were tabbies). However, they would not let me adopt her because I was a foreigner (that is a whole other story, which I will not go into now). In any case, I was very sad about that and I told a colleague at work that I wanted to adopt a cat. She said that she knew of somebody that rescued cats. And that is how I heard about the Nice Lady. I immediately contacted her and went to meet her. We talked a little bit and a few days later she brought Mrs. B (who they named Bobbi) over to my apartment to see whether we liked each other. Well, she never left and 5 years later we are still living happily ever after.

Since Mrs. B came to live with me she has had no serious health problems. She has tested negative for heartworms since she came to live here. The most serious problem she had was a blocked anal gland (sorry I had to bring that up Mrs. B). It was not serious, but they had to give her anesthesia because she was just teeth-and-claws when they tried to “unblock” it. They told me afterwards that they had some difficulty trying to wake her up afterwards, so we just have to be careful of that in the future.

After all the high drama of her early life, Mrs. B now leads a blissfully dull life. The most excitement she has here is when she gets the water squirt ‘cause she slips out into the courtyard for a grass salad. To conclude the Story of Mrs. B here is a picture of her watching here favorite program on Animal Planet, Meerkat Manor. Life is good.

(The End)
