Introducing Ellie and Her Adoption Story

The photo to the left is my muse, my cat Ellie. She is 9 years old. I actually moved her in with me during the Covid 19 pandemic, Labor Day weekend 2020. I got her in 2013 the summer before I moved away for college. One of my mom's coworkers at the time was married to a youth minister. I went to deposit some money into my account and she invited me to one of his ministires. I felt obligated to go, and I made one of my best friends go with me. When we arrived, they had this super cute and cuddly little white cat. She had to be no more than a year old. She let me pick her up, and nuzzled me affectionately. I jokingly told the minsiter and his wife that I was going to steal their cat. They then told me they were trying to rehome her because their youngest son was allergic. Of course, I had to take her home. I called both of my parents numerous times, and I even called my brother several times. No one answered their phone, so I made the executive decision that we were getting a cat. They were shocked to say the least. Unfortunately, I couldn't take her when I went to college because my dorm didn't allow cats. I couldn't take her to my first apartment because I couldn't afford the pet deposit. I couldn't when I moved in with my boyfriend and his mom because of their dog. Their dog passed in August of 2020 and I saw my chance. I petitioned with his mom, and she gave me the green light. It was has been the best having her finally living with me again. She is thoroughly enjoying indoor living and is thriving
