Thanks for the Memories Gimli


Gimli the foster cat (seen here curled up in the sun) went to her new home last weekend. The Dawg family was sad to see her go--well, most of the Dawg family. Ossi has a new lease on life. He's been prancing around the whole house just because he can.

After the last photo of them very tentatively sitting next to each other on the couch, things really went down hill. As Gimli gained strength back, she realized she really, really hates dogs and would growl and hiss at Ossi and attack him any chance she got. B-Dawg and L-Dawg had to separate them, closing off part of the house for Ossi and the other part for Gimli. Confined to their respective areas, they both desperately wanted to be where the other one was located.

Gimli' s new family reports that she's been feeling a bit shy in her first week with all the new sniffs and sounds, but that she's starting to love her new home. She loves to look out the window at the birds, bunnies and squirrels around the feeders and her new favorite hobby is pressing her nose up to the fish tank and licking her lips every time the goldfish go by.

We're happy she's happy in her new life and Ossi is glad he no longer has a kitty visitor that despises him. Now he can go back to barking at James, the tail-less cat next door and being King of his Castle (something he's very good at)!
