Cats in my life - part two

The kitten we adopted was tiny, weak (removed comma) and ill with various cat's diseases. But several months later, thanking thanks to our care and love, he became a big, beautiful and healthy cat (removed comma) with long, soft, gray fur. He wasn't shiny, (added comma) clever as our first one, but he was much more friendly, loved to play and never scratched anybody. He had a the perfect personality to live with a six year old girl that I was. Every day he was laying  used to lay on my writing table, among the books , waiting for me to come back from school and when I did used to do my homework. He was amazing hunter and caught anything that moved - birds, mice, small lizards and more. When we repatriated to Israel, (added comma) it was clear that he goes will come with us. He lived with us for eighteen years, an honorable age for a cat.
Many years past  passed; I have grown up, leaved left the parents' home and got married. My husband didn't like cats at all, until one day I convinced him to buy a kitten.
He obviously agreed to take a cat to pleasure please me and I was a little bit worried if whether he would love it. But my worries were unnecessary, today they love each other so much. She's now two years old, silver colored, playful, very tender and loving people, even our two small children who sometimes can pull her tail...
It's amazing how much positive emotions, love and fun bring animals bring to our life lives.
