Otis

On Sunday, February 10th our beloved, 17-yr old Manx died of a heart attack. The days that passed were painful, as the whole family grieved the loss of Cody. Our hearts ached and our daily routine was consumed with looking for Cody. Our house seemed empty and our hearts had huge holes filled with sorrow. Someone suggested that we look for another cat. Somehow this seemed disrespectful of Cody. But our veterinarian said this would be the best honor we could give to Cody! One of the sites we looked at was Cats for Life. And there he was, the wonderful cat that filled our aching hearts…Otis. Mr. Otis is such a sweet, laid back soul. He is an older kitty, at 6 ½ years, but just perfect for us. This furry, rag doll creature wins the hearts of everyone that meets him. He has certainly filled our empty hearts with love for him. From his silent meow to his love of attention, he is a true gift. He is just like picking up a rag doll; he just flops down where ever you put him. Even though Otis has some health issues we knew he was a cat that needed us as much as we did him. Thank you Cats for Life and Joy Ann, the special cat foster lady for Otis. She is the ultimate cat lover. I am sure Joy Ann will be honored with an award in feline heaven. Meow, from Otis, Martha & Clark --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
