Sharing a little happiness...this time! - Orchid Board

When Bunny passed away, I immediately started looking for another Persian. Every one I looked at, only broke my heart more and thought that I needed to wait a couple of months before I adopted another but then..................

this past Saturday, I met a breeder who decided she was getting too old to stay in the business and she no longer could keep up with all the work involved. I took one look at this pretty girl and said, "I want her."

I took her home today and it's been the best medicine/band-aide for this broken heart. She's working her magic on me. She's very sweet, trusting, loves being held but staying under the vanity in the bathroom I've given her until she feels like venturing out to meet Lilly (my other cat) and Annie, the doggie.

I don't have a name for her yet but I'm thinking of, "Bridgette". Any suggestions for a name would be welcome!

Anyway, here's my new girl. She's a little thing, maybe 7 lbs. She was born 07/27/07

Sue, I knew you would be happy for me. Thank You

I'm also thinking of the name, "Goldie."

Here are some more pics from my new 'brag' book.

Hmmmm, "Joy".....I like it, Gloria. Oddly, when I said goodbye to Bunny, I told her, "you've been my biggest joy."

OK, so now I'm thinking, Bridgette or Goldie or Joy. This is going to be to tough!

I think I really like the name Joy for her...it's perfect for her, the way you're feeling and is a bit of a remembrance of Bunny all wrapped up in one simple little word...

Joy

MuscleGirl, that's why I love Persians. Their personalities and temperments are the greatest. And those faces!!!

shakkai and Marilyn (((((thank you))))). I can't believe how lifted I feel again. She's great medicine!

I took her out on the patio this morning while I watered some orchids and she's beginning to get curious. She jumped on my lap while I was taking a break and I decided right then and there, not to wait to have her groomed. She's got a stinky little butt so, the waiting's over!!!!

OK, now I'm leaning towards the name, Penelope Joy.

What a cutie! I'm so pleased for you Sandy. Nothing like a sweet little kitten to ease a broken heart. I hope she'll enjoy your orchids too!
