When I was doing my rescue from home, one of my favorite kitties was "MAX". He is the same age as Ginger, as they were from different litters, but were kittens raised together. He was a beauty and was with our family for about 8 years. My son actually rescued him from a trailer park where the owners were not taking care of him, he was not neutered and was in pretty bad shape. After we visited the vet, had him neutered and gave him the love he wanted he turned out to be a very handsome boy.

Right before Hurricane Katrina (we lived right outside New Orleans), one of the vets we used told me she knew someone that was searching for a white cat, but really wanted to get two so it would have company. I had another sweetie girl "Mimi", (gray and white) and they were pals and I interviewed the person wanting to adopt, she fell in love with them both and offered them a home.

After the hurricane I was so upset as she actually lived in New Orleans and I was so afraid that she had left them when it was mandatory evacuation. However, the vet told me after the storm that she moved home to Pennsylvania and took them both with her and her family. I missed him terribly at first but knew they were in a great environment and were well taken care of as they thought of Mimi and Max as part of their family.

Max is such a beautiful boy, and his story was so amazing that I had to select him for Cat of the Week.
