Shadow: The Legend

I realized that I praised sweet little Peaches when she first arrived, but I hadn't introduced my sweet boys! Well, here's fixin' that! I'm pleased to introduce the legend- my wise ole Shadow and the coolest cat you'll ever know...


He's quite the handsome fellow and is one smart kitty.



Shadow just turned 13 on 9.5.2008. My Mom and I got him when he was about 1 year old. He was an outside cat turned stray, needed a home and we fell in love with him. It took him about a week to adjust but he finally fell in love with us too. Since then, he has been such an important part of my life. My Mom moved to Florida and I got to keep Shadow; he lived through my first apartment experience, my first roommate experience, my first multiple roommate and pet experience, and so much more. He actually got outside once (thanks to my roommates leaving the window open!!!) and got lost; he was gone for 3 months and then I saw him one day when I was walking home from class.

"If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, it is yours. If it doesn't, it never was."

He's been a little different ever since but he's still Shadow; he got a little nick on his ear and has a small limp from trying to protect himself, no doubt. He's a legend and the sweetest kitty in the world! He's been through a lot with us and we've been through a lot with him. He's our baby and a true part of our entire family. I love him sooooooooooooooooooo much!!!


Happy Birthday Shadow!!!
