Bradley's Tail
|
Hi! Bradley here! I am the spokeskitty
for C & W Rustic Hollow Shelter and boy, do I have a 'tail' for you!
I am
just a young boy and I am proud to say that I am at a really nice
place now...they call it C & W Shelter... I think I understand the
'shelter' part, as I really, really, REALLY needed HELP! I was
thrown from and dragged by a car. I don't remember much after that,
but I must have laid a long time before I could get up....but my
back feet were gone and it was sooo hard for me to walk. But I made
it to a nearby farm and there were other cats but they all just 'moused'...I
begged and begged for food and rubbed the lady's ankles and meowed
sooo much but the lady said she didn't 'feed cats', they had to
'mouse.' I couldn't do that because I couldn't walk on my back
stumps very well.
There
were bones sticking out of my stumps and they were so full of dirt
and rocks and they hurt soooooo much. But I meowed, and, was oh, so
friendly, and one day, a miracle happened...someone noticed me. A
man named Bradley, a Schwan's man they say, noticed ME, and inquired
about me. ME! Imagine that! Someone cared enough to ASK about me! He
must have talked to someone else, who talked to these nice people at
C & W Shelter, because I was whisked away and got my fIrst good meal
in a loooooooonnnnnggg time.
The
nice man said I was 'wasting away' on that farm. The neat thing was
HIS name is Bradley too and that is what they called me when I got
to C & W. How nice of him to help me and for me to have his name
too!!!!! That is really pretty cool. He was my saviour. Then I went
on a long car ride with Wanda and Carmen to a place where there were
lots of special kitties and a nice lady named Dr. Jenni who I don't
remember much about because I slept a lot there. When I woke

up I
just wanted to go "HOME" to the nice place I had just gotten settled
into. And, you won't believe what clunky big things were on my back
legs. I'd sit up like a big boy and would just topple over! But I
learned to walk on those big bandages and I got to go back home
really soon. I
was sooo happy to be home again. I rubbed on the
carpet, the chairs, the people and the carpet is sooo easy
for me to get around on. The nice lady who takes care of us
in Apollo's House put carpet runners down so I could get

get around on. The nice
lady who takes care of us in Apollo's House put carpet runners down
so I could get from room to room. How nice.oom to room. How nice.
And That's how I
got to be the new 'spokeskitty' for C
& W. I'll be popping up here and there in the website and in
the newsletter to share all the news and 'shelter
happenings' in the Sanctuary "Happy Tails" newsletter as
well in the printed version that my people send out several
times a year. I love my new home, I love the people, AND all
the visitors, and I even get MAIL from people!!!! I am sooo
proud. Remember me my name is Bradley...and they say I'm a
REAL survivor!

Bradley!
