Katy first part Today my entry is about the most special cat in my life: Katy, she came to my life in 1997 and she was with me 13 years. Tina died in 1996, I have a bit depressed for lost her, I hadn't looking for another pet but in February 1997 a student who used to go to the library where i whorked told me about the kittens she was giving, I asked for a male cat because in that moment I used to travel for work and i didn't have time to take a pet to sterilize it. She went to the library a Thursday with this cat in a box, she said me that It was a female cat and if I didn't wanted it, she was going to throw her in the trash, I couldn't permit that so I accepted the cat; when I opened the box the ugliest cat in the world appeared, skinny, pulpy and with the sadest stare I had ever see, she was also fearful,( she was never able to take away that fear of people, she only accepted me and my brother and when my nephews were born she accepted them as well). The first night was horrible, she meowed all night and the succesive days she didn't want to go out of her hiding place. I didn't know how to do to her feeling comfortable with me, I just was sitting in the same room and I talked to her without watching her because that scared her a lot. After a few weeks she had enough confidence to be with me in the same room and when she finally laid down beside me I was so happy. She didn't want me grabbed her, i never took her in my arms, she just let me caress her, she didn't want to go out, she just watched the steet trough the window. I used to travel for work at that time and I had never take time to make an appointment to sterilize her so she became pregnant and a night she went into labor. I was sitting beside her, caress her when one died kitten was born, I wanted for the following kittens but nothing. The next day for the first time in her life she dissapeared until the next night, She laid down with me, at midnight I woke up because I heard a kitten's meow she was next to me cleaning herself. I saw her and I told her I would swear I heard a kitten, I turned off the light and I heard the kitten's meow again, I turne on the light, I saw carefully and she wasn't cleaning herself, she was cleaning a kitten, I got up looking for the place she had given birth without succes.I sat down nex to her wondering myself where would be the place when I heard a meow again, when I saw her I realized she had given birth another kitten without make a sound.
