IF I LOOK A LITTLE FRIGHTENED STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SINK LIKE THIS...I AM....YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND, WHEN YOU'RE AS TINY AS I AM, THAT DRAIN CAN LOOK LIKE YOUR BEING DANGLED OVER THE GRAND CANYON OR SOME KIND OF STAINLESS STEEL ABYSS OR SOMETHING. SCARY STUFF Y'ALL!
OH WELL...AT LEAST I GET TO ADJUST THE HOT AND COLD WATER TO A TEMPERATURE I CAN LIVE WITH..
BACK TO MY WONDERFUL JOURNEY HOME...
AFTER MY PREVIOUS OWNERS HAD ABANDONED ME IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE, AND LEFT ME TO DIE WITHOUT FOOD OR WATER FOR DAYS, I WAS FOUND WANDERING AIMLESSLY ABOUT BY A SWEET YOUNG COUPLE WHO COULD TELL BY MY EXPIRED G.P.S. APP...THAT I WAS LOST.
EVEN THOUGH THEY ALREADY HAD WHAT I WOULD HAVE TO CALL A 'PET HOARDERS STARTER KIT' GOING ON THERE...THEY TOOK ME IN JUST THE SAME AND KEPT ME SAFE UNTIL THEY COULD FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO WITH ME...
FOR WEEKS THEY POSTED PICTURES OF ME ALL OVER TOWN TO TRY AND RECONNECT ME WITH MY WRONGFUL OWNERS. AND FOR WEEKS...THANK GOD...THE PHONE NEVER RANG.
ALREADY OVERWHELMED WITH A PIT BULL AND A RATHER LARGE COLLECTION OF CATS...WHO DID EVENTUALLY TEACH ME TO MEOW LIKE ONE OF THEIR OWN...(NO REALLY!)...THEY DECIDED TO POST MY PICTURE ON THE INTERNET WITH HOPES OF EITHER LOCATING MY OWNERS OR FINDING SOMEONE ELSE WHO WAS IN A BETTER POSITION TO CARE FOR ME THAN THEY WERE.
NOW BEFORE I GET TO THE PART WHERE MY NEW OWNERS DEE & THE BIG COME INTO THE PICTURE...YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THEIR LIVES AT THE SAME TIME...
SO LET ME FILL YOU IN ON THAT, AND THEN YOU CAN DECIDE FOR YOURSELF IF THE OUTCOME WAS JUST GOOD TIMING, OR MORE LIKELY SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL AND DIVINE INTERVENTION...OKAY?
IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, DEE AND THE BIG GUY HAD LOST TWO OF THE SIX SHELTIES THEY HAD CARED FOR AND LOVED FOR MANY YEARS.
SHELBY
AND OBI WAN
SHELBY WAS A BEAUTIFUL FEMALE SHELTIE THAT DEE AND THE BIG GUY HAD FLOWN IN FROM GEORGIA TO RESCUE AND OBI WAN WAS A VERY HANDSOME MALE, WHO WAS RESCUED FROM ANOTHER SHELTER HERE IN TEXAS.
SHELBY PASSED AWAY FROM COMPLICATIONS OF DIABETES AND SHORTLY AFTER THAT, OBI WAN PASSED AWAY FROM BONE CANCER.
SHELBY WAS ALMOST TEN WHEN SHE PASSED AWAY AND OBI WAS ONLY EIGHT WHEN HEAVEN OPENED UP IT'S DOORS FOR HIM...
IN TIME, WHEN THE HEARTACHE AND TEARS HAD SUBSIDED, DEE AND THE BIG GUY DECIDED TO FILL THE EMPTINESS LEFT BEHIND BY THE LOSS OF THEIR MOST BEAUTIFUL AND BELOVED FRIENDS, WITH THE JOY THEY KNEW THEY WOULD FIND IN OPENING THEIR HEARTS AND HOME TO ANOTHER RESCUE IN NEED.
