My daughters had been wanting a cat for a long time. I finally felt they were mature enough to care for one and we immediately started our search for our furever friend. It felt like the longest few months of our lives. Every time we thought we found “the purfect one”, they would be adopted out to families before us and our hearts would be crushed. We were getting extremely discouraged, but never stopped searching. One day, I saw Minnie on the HSHV website and as soon as I got off work we went straight to see her.

She was absolutely purfect! I quickly found out that she was a legacy adoption. I had no idea what that meant, but was told I would have to take her brother, Mickey, as well. I was not in the market for two cats at the time. My daughters, however, really wanted them! I said, I will need to think about it and we went home to sleep on it. I told them if they are still there by tomorrow when I get off work, I will get them. I made the call the next day and they were! Of course I ran to the pet store, bought everything they could ever want and more, then headed to get our babies. It was the best decision I’ve ever made. These two cats have brought so much happiness, comfort, and love into our family. They are definitely the king and queen of our castle! We couldn’t imagine life without them. We are so blessed to have two of the most beautiful, loving fur babies as part of our family.
