Abigail
My boyfriend found this little girl while at work. She had been there for two days in 90 degree weather with no mom and no siblings. She broke his heart and he brought her to me. She was only about four weeks at the time, was covered in fleas and feces, her eyes were crusted over and I could feel every bone in her body. I told him I didn’t think she would make it, but she did! That was two weeks ago and now she weighs a whopping 14 ounces! This is a picture from her first photoshoot.

First post? What a sweet baby. I’m partial to silver tabbies… she needs a good snorgling.
God bless you for taking in this little girl — she is precious
*Sweet Survivor Fuzz*
What a cutie! Thank your for saving her. She’s very precious.
What a good person you are for rescuing this little one. She’s a beauty. Take care.
Awww. How sweet! That was a very lucky kitty to be found like that. I’m glad that she’s doing well. She looks like a real cutie!
Abigail’s first photoshoot proves she’s a heartbreaker. She certainly knows how to make love to the camera! How gorgeous are her eyes! And the slight bit of orange around her nose makes her look like a little tiger.
Jeepers peepers….look at those eyes! Abigail is a model, to be sure.
Your precious baby is a special gift.. I am sure she is eternally grateful for being rescued and loved.
The world needs more kind souls like you & your boyfriend.
Oh, she’s so beautiful.
kinda cute….
*The Conniving Cat Caper*
The clever calico cat took a calculated risk when he criss-crossed the carpet and climbed on the kitchen counter to feast upon cream and cod. Calamity arose as the culprit catapulted himself toward a container of cream. The kitty cringed as a coffee cup clanged and clanked and crashed to the floor. Classically a carnivore, the cat ate the cod clean, then played with the cucumbers, canned corn, and cabbage. With care he consumed the last crusty crumb of cocoa cake and left.
Cautiously the composed, cunning cat, calmly cleaned his claws innocently by the couch in the corner.
Meanwhile, in the kitchen it was conjectured that the criminal was the culprit caught near the cupboard, casually cavorting by a kettle of custard.
The cool, keen cat, oh what a cold cad, watched curiously as the canine was convicted of the crime.
Aww! Ain’t she just adorable!!!!!!!
Good for your boyfriend for rescuing her! It’s just amazing what a little TLC can do.
She’s really beautiful…gorgeous eyes!
oh my gosh – what a story & what an absolute little doll baby!!!! What is with those tremendous blue eyes??? I want to snuggle that baby belly…..
What a rough start she had!! Poor sweetie. She is so pretty!! Very nice of you to save her. She needs such a nice mommy!
You have a very special boyfriend! Thank God for people like you, this precious baby has a loving home. She looks adorable.I think she needs loads of kisses on that sweet belly. :))
Thank you for rescuing this little one!
What an adorable baby! Thank heavens your boyfriend has a compassionate heart. Thank you for giving this little angel a good home and lots of love which she deserves.
She’s a cover girl, alright. With a little “kiss of Cheetos” on her nose, too!
‘kiss of Cheetos’? TJ you are a poet. May I borrow that phrase?:))
Be my guest. I am tickled!
There was a comedian who used to specialize in made-up words, and one of his was “cheedle,” to describe the funky orange debris on your finger tips after downing a bag of Cheetos. I have added that to my vocabulary.
She is soooo adorible!
I just checked the meaning of Abigail at babynames.com—-it means “Joy of the Father”—–quite appropriate! Your little girl is precious—and so are you and your boyfriend for saving her.
Oh, lucky little girl she is!
I have a similar story, and as soon as I can locate my camera, the Kittenmaster will have both my story and the pictures of my two new little girls.
Your story kind of reminds me of how we got “miss kitty”. My son saved her from the El Nino flooding here in so cal back in 1997. He just knew I needed a kitty. Now we have 3!
She is absolutely adorable!
Abigail is so beautiful. You are her Meowmy now! She will give you love eternal.
Totally impressed by your boyfriend. He was sent to her, and good thing too as Baby Abigail wouldn’t have survived without his help too.
Based on her first photoshoot, Abigail is destined to become a super Catmodel!
She’s so lucky to have you! She’s a gorgeous girl, even though I like boy cats better. No reason. Just do.
You will have a companion for LIFE ~ what a wonderful experience for both of you!!! Good Luck & she is a BEAUTIFUL kitty!!!
*no more fleas on me FUZZ*
She is beautiful…and so are the both of you for loving her!
I thought this was adorable!!
*A Dog’s Letter to God*
by Robert B. Warwick
Dear God,
How come people love to smell flowers, but seldom, if ever, smell
one another? What are they thinking?
Dear God,
When we get to Heaven, can we sit on your couch? Or is it the
same old story?
Dear God,
Excuse me, but why are there cars named after the jaguar, the
cougar, the mustang, the colt, the stingray, and the rabbit, but
not one named for a dog? How often do you see a cougar riding
around? We dogs love a nice ride! I know every breed cannot have
its own model, but it would be easy to rename the Chrysler Eagle
the Chrysler Beagle!
Dear God,
If a dog barks his head off in the forest and no human hears him,
is he still a bad dog?
Dear God,
Is it true that in Heaven, dining room tables have onramps?
Dear God,
More meatballs, less spaghetti, please.
Dear God,
When we get to the Pearly Gates, do we have to shake hands to get
in?
Dear God,
We dogs can understand human verbal instructions, hand signals,
whistles, horns, clickers, beepers, scent IDs, electromagnetic
energy fields, and Frisbee flight paths. What do humans
understand?
Dear God,
Are there dogs on other planets, or are we alone? I have been
howling at the moon and stars for a long time, but all I ever
hear back is the beagle across the street.
Dear God,
Are there mailmen in Heaven? If there are, will I have to
apologize?
Dear God,
When my family eats dinner they always bless their food. But they
never bless mine. So, I’ve been wagging my tail extra fast when
they fill my bowl. Have you noticed my own blessing?
Dear God,
I’ve always lived at the shelter and I have everything I need.
But many of the dogs here have names and I don’t. Could you give
me a name please? It would be good for my self-esteem.
Dear God,
The new terrier I live with just peed on the Oriental rug and I
have a feeling my family might blame me ‘cuz they think I’m
jealous of this stupid dog. Since they have no sense of smell,
how can I convince them I’m innocent? Does PetsMart sell lie
detectors?
now that is funniest thing ever! you sure have a knack for finding hysterical stories to share to brighten everyones day, Dee!
Abigail is so captivating with those enchanting eyes! such a great story to boot…bless you hearts – you will certainly be rewarded 10 fold!
the angle of the shot is interesting – almost looks as if Abigail took a self-portrait snapshot of herself by the position of her front legs – heehee 🙂
That is really cute! I love the one about mailmen.
Abigail is so pretty!
*Picture Perfect FUZZ*
(This is actually CCat. From now on I’ll be commenting under my Blogger name.)
Dee– That little story made my day! 🙂
What a beautiful little girl – bless you both for saving her! Also, I’d like to add that you should hold on to that boyfriend! He’s obviously a wonderful, caring person.
Fabulous story and kit to match! Your good hearts are going to give this blue-eyed girl a strong and happy life. Abigail looks to be on her way to becoming
A-BIG-GIRL FUZZ
What a beautiful kitten! Those eyes are entrancing!
Poor little Abigail. All the best to you and to her. I’m sure she will blossom now she’s found you.
What a pretty kitten!! She’s got beautiful eyes, I’m a kitty lover my self, and my family has a cream 6 month old kitten named sasha.
I read this story and started crying. What a precious site to see.
Abigail is a real sweetheart, she melts the heart. So good of your boyfriend and you to take her in and give her the love she deserves. God Bless You Both.
oh my…bless her lil heart and bless you and your bf for rescuing her. she is an absolutely gorgeous girl and i can see the love in her eyes. good luck with your new baby.
*high-fashion fuzz!*
A big hug for your boyfriend, he is a good man! What a precious life! She is beautiful!
She is such a lucky one, I wish y’all a happy life together!
What a beautiful girl—one could get lost in those blue eyes and gorgeous face—She is special and obviously very loved—so glad your boyfriend found her before it was too late!!!
Bless both of you!!
THERE SHOULD BE MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF AND BOYFRIEND. WHAT A DARLING!!!
What a great story!
I do hope that animals control the next life so that you and your boyfriend can come back as utterly spoiled pets who never know a day of anything but plenty of food, playing, and loving families!
Absolutely beautiful kitten and those blue eyes are to die for!
You and your boyfriend are wonderful people, thank you from all of us cat lovers. What a lucky little thing!
Thank you so much for saving this precious angel! What beautiful eyes.

Those eyes are amazing. She was very lucky to be found by such caring people. I’m sure she will show you how much she appreciates it by all the LOVE she’ll be giving you. Great luck to all 3 of you.
What a beautiful blue-eyed beauty! She is so lucky to have you. Bless your heart for taking her in and keeping her safe. She is a precious little girl.
Did you guys hear that an arrest was just made in the jon benet ramsey case? just hitting the wires—-won’t say who was arrested, yet….
http://www.wkbw.com/story.aspx?preview=&type=ln&NStoryID=14059
In looking for Dee’s latest news, I found this story, sick, sick people! Will it never end?!
I saw that yesterday and it was infuriating! I wish more people were responsible with getting their pets spayed/neutered so there would not be gazillions of unwanted pets out there! A good thing did come out of that story, however—–you know that every one of those kittens is going to be adopted by a loving person. Those kinds of atrocities always bring out the nurturing side of animal lovers.
REALLY – i haven’t seen anything yet. i wonder if it was her mother…at least that was always who was identified as their “#1 suspect” in all the articles i have ever read about the case.
Here is the latest link on the jon benet story—-it wasn’t her mother who was arrested—she died last month….
http://www.9news.com/acm_news.aspx?OSGNAME=KUSA&IKOBJECTID=189d522a-0abe-421a-00f3-dded5288de58&TEMPLATEID=0c76dce6-ac1f-02d8-0047-c589c01ca7bf
yeah, i just realized that – i searched the topic and read that she died of Ovarian Cancer…oopsie! i seriously didn’t even hear anything of that. i guess that is my punishment for intentionally avoiding reading the news because it is always “negative topics” … thanks for the link, Dee!
here is another link through yahoo indicating that the “suspect” is a male, which that other article did not specify.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060816/ap_on_re_us/jonbenet_ramsey_2
and here is another link through Yahoo…

ick—it was just reported that his name is John Karr (sp?) and he is a 41 year old second grade school teacher!
Did anyone hear about this??

*Country Singer Charged With Killing A Tame Bear*
(WCCO) Minneapolis Country singer Troy Lee Gentry was indicted Tuesday in federal court on a charge of illegally killing and tagging a tamed black bear.
Gentry, of Franklin, Tenn., and Lee Marvin Greenly, a 46-year-old wildlife photographer from Sandstone, Minn., appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Raymond Erickson in Duluth, Minn. Tuesday morning. Their case being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael A. Dees.
According to the indictment, Greenly sold Gentry a tame, trophy-caliber black bear named “Cubby” for approximately $4,650 in October of 2004. Greenly housed several animals for use in his photography business.
After the transaction, the indictment reports that Greenly and Gentry tagged the bear with a Minnesota hunting license. Gentry then allegedly killed the captive bear with a bow and arrow while the animal was still enclosed in a pen on Greenly’s property.
The indictment further alleges that Greenly and Gentry registered the bear with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources as though it had been hunted in the wild before shipping the animal’s hide to a taxidermist in Kentucky for mounting.
According to the Lacey Act, it is illegal to falsely tag a tame bear for the purpose of hunting.
The bear’s death was videotaped and allegedly edited after the fact to make it appear that Cubby had been killed in a “fair chase” situation.
Greenly is also facing two further charges of violations against the Lacey Act, including guiding hunters to the Sandstone National Wildlife Refuge, where black bear hunting is illegal, and unlawfully setting up bear-baiting stations in the area.
Both Gentry and Greenly have been released on bond pending their next court appearance. If convicted on the charges, they could both face a maximum potential penalty of five years in federal prison and a $20,000 fine.
Hi Dee!
Is the subject in this story the “Gentry” in Montgomery Gentry? If so, I cannot imagine a public figure doing something so blatantly illegal and not expect to get caught. His behavior is deplorable. Even though it has been said that tame animals are never truly “tame”, it doesn’t excuse it. Money talks, though, and they will probably buy their way out of it. T
What an inspiring, uplifting, great story!
*Summer frolic FUZZ*
Her eyes are absaloutly beautiful, enjoy them while you can, before they change at aroung 6 weeks!
Yup Dee heard about that one as well as the kittens in the frying pan-never ceases to amaze me!
awwww . she is soo cute ! i have a cat named skittles who looks just like that except a little bigger. Anyway you have an adorable cat
Wow, her eyes are so expressive. You can see the gentleness, but also a little sadness. She got a tough start. I’m so glad she is improving. She will be a loving friend. She’s beautiful.
On another note…
The kittens in the frying pan just outrages me. How evil can someone be????? It makes me sick to my stomach.
What a sweet kittie!! Praise, gratitude and recognition to you and your boyfriend!!
You and your boyfriend are angels for giving this little cutie a fresh chance for a good life.
I could get lost in those eyes. What a beauty! : )
She is precious! I am so glad there are people like you and your boyfriend in this world. Give her lots of love!
She’s gorgeous! Those eyes.. goodness!
I’m so glad you took her in and that she’s doing well!
Hug her for me please! 🙂
Bless you and the sweet kitten.
Oh, thank you for saving her! She looks so sweet with those eyes looking at you, and just begging for someone to help! And so glad you did! What a beautiful girl you have there.
I just saw the picture of Abigail..She is so adorable! She was in the right place at the right time to be rescued. She must has a “Guardian Kitty Angel”. She is so sweet!
that is one of the most adroable cats I’ve ever seen
Beautiful Eye!!!! They are soooooooooooooooooooooo blue!!!
What an inspiring story. Your boyfriend deserves a metal for compassion!! And of course, what a beautiful kitten!!!
bless your boyfriend for rescueing this little precious kitten. how lucky she is for being found. poor little thing. i got all choked up when i read your story.
She is so serious looking and her eyes make me smile. I visit this page every day and never comment, but I couldn’t pass up your beautiful girl. Thank goodness you saved her; she’s too precious to lose.
Okay, that’s it–I too come to this page every day and have yet to comment. I’m gonna start with your lovely little sweetheart! Bless you and your boyfriend for rescuing this innocent dear little girl! May this lucky little darling give you many years of loving companionship!
The eyes do it again for me! She is precious! Thanks to your boyfriend for saving her and bringing her to you. She will return the love many times over. Looks like she’ll need the brush! It’s very important to start the brushing when they are very young so they get used to it. Belly rub from me!
May you have many years of happiness together!
That is so awesome when people save animals . . . it is good to see that humans are still out there. Thanks……….
That kitten needs a big kiss and a lot of cuddles, and I’m ready to do it! If I had her I’d never leave the house – it would be nap and cuddle time 24/7. Of course, I also say that as a very tired person who can’t take my cat to my office…
Abigail is so cute, she deserves her on website!!!! Glad she found a great home. Hope you have many, many happy years together.
Aw, what a sweetie! Glad you have a man with such a big heart. Take care of that special girl (who looks like she is a Maine Coon!)
