Sometimes Fleur sits by the front door, staring through the side panes at whatever squirrel or bird happens by. Her head may drop and her ears fold back, ready to pounce. It’s the same place, the same position Mina used to take. They are very different cats with different temperaments, yet though they never met they favor the same cushions and views.

Kitten At First Sight (Guest POst)
This week is a guest post from my daughter about getting our cat in the fall of 2019. Enjoy!
Fleur is 1 ½ years old, and she is a beautiful black cat. We got her from the Wake County ASPCA, where she was spayed and was cared for, although she wasn’t born there. There were many other cats at the ASPCA, but we leaned towards getting another black cat because our first cat was a black cat that sadly passed away. There was another cat named “Toothless” and had a weak immune system (he was also a black cat). There was a cat named “Celery” that was also really adorable. We saw her on the website and wanted her until she got adopted. Her sister Plum was still at the ASPCA when we went but she was getting something done so she wasn’t in the adopting room. Fleur was very shy when we met her and had a whole glammed up pink cage (pink was everywhere with Fleur). We finally knew it was gonna be Floret (her original name at the ASPCA) all the way! She was a perfect kitten at first sight!
A lucky picture! I got Fleur! it just goes to show how adorable she is.
