Sky

This is one of my favorite stories. Sky was six years old and had not had a very happy life at all living on the streets. Also, Sky did not seem very happy in the condo at Petco while she was up for adoption. Sky was adopted by Amparo and her family on 9-20-09. Amparo didn't speak English, but Sky's foster, Maria, speaks Spanish and was able to communicate with Amparo. One thing that Amparo said in her application that touched both mine and Maria's hearts is that she didn't like seeing Sky in "the box" at Petco. This is what Maria has sent me in her follow-up with Sky and Amparo: "I spoke to Amparo. She said Sky is doing very well. Her daughter calls Sky her cat since Sky has bonded with the daughter, and Sky spends most of her time in her daughter's room. Her husband also adores Sky. He said she has the prettiest white coat he has ever seen and that she looks so beautiful that she seems almost like a toy stuffed cat. Every night Amparo's daughter picks up Sky from the couch and takes her to bed with her. They also have an extra litter box, water bowl and food bowl in the daughter's room. Sky enjoys belly rubs and enjoys being carried by her younger son. Sky also enjoys laying on her son's computer desk while he does research on the computer. Amparo said Sky is the queen of the house and the whole family adores her very much." Thank you, thank you Amparo and family for making Sky the happiest kitty cat in the world!
