This is a short story about a beautiful little black kitty with a diamond studded collar, that came into my life.

I hope this story will have a happy ending.

Rollo

She had no tags, no microchip, and no name.

She appeared one day and kept coming back.

My mom made flyers and posted missing kitty photos of her on two neighborhood facebook pages. No one seemed to be missing this elegant and loving little kitty who has the most stunning yellow eyes that will melt your heart.

I’ve heard all sorts of bad stories of people up and leaving their cats, but really, how could someone leave this precious little one behind  to fend for herself. How could someone not be looking for her and be heartbroken that she’s gone.

Her beginnings are unknown but I am sure that she once had a home.

That’s all she’s wants to do is come inside with me.

She’s there in the morning, she’s there in the day, and she’s there at the wee hours of the night.

Meowing at the door to come in.  But we can’t have anymore animals,  so she’s just been our adopted outside kitty.

I talk to her everyday and give her all my wisdom. And she tells me all about how she wishes she had a home again.

My mom gives her dry food in the mornings and a hearty plate of wet food for dinner. Turkey with gravy is her favorite.  She’s always grateful and rubs up against my mom’s legs and really purrs when her chin is rubbed. She is truly the nicest and friendliest kitty we’ve ever met.

As the months went by and she was out in the elements, the diamond studded collar aged and was left behind, just like the kitty that was wearing it.

One thing I know about her is that she loves to roll around on the ground. So I called her Rollo.

She rolls in grass. She rolls on the roof. She rolls in nip, lots and lots of nip! She rolls and rolls.  Rollo

She’s been rolling around outside my house for 5 long months.

Through the rain, the cold, the winds, and the dangerous coyotes in the neighborhood.

We bought her one of those heated cat houses but it just doesn’t seem a good fit for a girl like her to be relegated to that kind of life. RolloHouse

She tries to flirt with me with her charming ways.  I’ll admit I have a big crush on her…that’s an understatement.

But I will be honest with you, my heart just breaks to see her just sitting there all the time, looking in. Her pleas are conveyed through the sweetest meows… longing to be part of “the good indoor life.”

I know she came here for a reason but now I know that it’s time for her to find a safe place in a loving, forever home.

I taught her all I know and she’s shared her secrets and her respected advice with me.  I am forever grateful and a better kitty for that.

She is my top confidant for my cause and regularly calls top level meetings with Gray the stray (left)  and my Chief of Quacks to discuss important matters.

We have late night strategy meetings that are so secret that we always have to keep looking over our shoulders in case there are spies trying to listen in.

She lifted my spirits with her silliness, flexing her impressive claws on the screen, during those hard times when I lost my job.

She makes me laugh with her graceful gymnastic moves. show-2As much as I enjoy her friendship, her amusing and entertaining company, I know that she would be safer and happier being an indoor kitty.

She’s a princess and we know how they should and need to live. Pampered in comfort and style.

So here is where you come in. If you are seriously interested in my special and sweet little Rollo and you promise to give her more love than a kitty deserves, I will let her go.

She’s captured a piece of my heart but I know she deserves more.

GOOD NEWS! Rollo will be taken in by Milo’s Sanctuary, Inc. they will be arranging transport this week to have her taken to their veterinarians for a full check up, blood test, vaccinations, deworming, defleaing, and microchipped.

Once that is done she will be ready for her forever home! If you’re interested in adopting this beautiful girl please email them directly at miloscats@gmail.com or contact them through their Facebook Page at Milos Sanctuary

 

Thank you for listening. And if she does have a home I will always need to have you give me regular updates and photos so I can feel reassured that my diamond studded girl that I love is ok and living the life she so deserves.

Love,

City
