Arrival Story:
They tell me that I was a stray. I'm not sure what that is, but somebody brought me to the shelter where I had to spend weeks in a little cage with nobody to play with. They took my brother out of the cage because we would fight over the food. I didn't get to come out for a long time because of something called a parvo quarantine. When they finally let me out, my mommy was waiting for me. I kept shaking 'cause I was scared, but she told me that everything was okay. I was introduced to my new brother, but then they left! I was there for three more days waiting for her to come back. I thought she wasn't going to take me because she sneezed a lot when she petted me (she tells me she's allergic, what's that?). But she came back, and now I'm happy living with my new mommy and brother. I'll never sleep on a hard floor or have to fight for my food again...yay!
