Snug

Laura Earle is just a year old this month. When she was a little baby I took her in along with her mother as foster cats. Nine months went by and I despaired of ever finding them homes. Finally some cat-welfare activists I know placed Alice (the mom) in a pet supply store several miles away, and I took this creature in as one of my own. Her old name was Theo.

Today I got word back that Alice was adopted after about a month on display in the pet supply store. For the first few days she cowered in a corner, but then she became perfectly sociable. I have no information about the person who adopted her.

Laura Earle likes to curl up under my arm as I lie in bed and lay her paws on my chest. Then she purrs herself to sleep as I read my book. that is what she's up to in this picture. Thus, you may observe that all of the stars are in their right places.
