Congratulations, Kingsley!

Dear Kingsley,

 

When we met you last summer you were near death. As you may remember, you were a fully adult male who hadn't been neutered and yet so emaciated that you weighed only a shocking 5.1 pounds (2.3 kg). You were too weak to do much of anything, blood work showed that most of your organs were not functioning properly, you had every intestinal parasite known to man and were so flea ridden that you were severely anemic. We didn't want to tell you this but we were pretty sure you weren't going to make it.

 

Thankfully, you proved us wrong. You now weigh a slightly chubby 13 pounds (we can't resist giving you treats), are completely healthy and are the delight of the entire practice. Your antics make us laugh every day. You are the coolest, chillest, most social cat we've ever met. You are also the clumsiest (sorry, but it's true) cat imaginable and you know nothing about personal space. These things just add to your charm.

 

Today is a big, big day for you. You are about become part of a new family who will cherish you as much as we do. On this happy day we won't dwell on the sappy stuff like what a huge presence you are and what a huge void you'll leave. No need to mention you are a one-of-a-kind, irreplaceable goofball who has wormed your way deep into all our hearts. We'll just concentrate on how proud of you we are and grateful for the time we've had with you.

 

Wishing you all the best, dear Kingsley,

 

Kerri and all the rest of your fans at Carnegie.
