Left Behind - 1 of 2



How do you resist a face like that? Ping Pong was the newest addition to my now dwindling family. Moving to Chicago with my dog and cat isn't a feasible option. The drive up there is 14 hours I think... plus I will be getting settled in, hitting the streets, resume in hand, for a job, and winters with a pet would be a challenge. Taking Oscar out when it's -10 degrees, walking down flights of stairs in old buildings with no elevators... it doesn't make sense to me and I feel like they would be neglected. Alex had stepped up to adopt both of them. The greatest thing about this is there will be little adjustment. They keep the same home, back yard, one of their Dads and so on. I know they will be well taken care of here but I am going to miss them immensely!!! We adopted Ping Pong from our roommate's boyfriend several months ago. He came with food and a litter box. We added an array of toys to the collection, upgraded his food, and had his sharp little claws removed by my amazing veterinarian. He loves to cuddle, especially at night. He will get right under the covers with you and just purr away. MEOW! I could go on forever. These guys are my children!
