Meet Sylvester

Its amazing to me how life does not always give you what you ask for.... 

But, from time to time, life will give you what you need... 

(whether you know you need it or not...)

Meet Sylvester...

I never expected when I went to work yesterday to find this cute little face staring back at me...  I could not help but walk over to his cage, to which he started hissing at me in this small  teeny tiny hiss.  I just laughed and called him silly.  As soon as he heard my voice he just started crying and crying, as if he was telling me he was sorry... that he was just afraid and alone...  that he was just looking for someone to love him...

Later in the morning, I learned his story... his mom had abandoned him (downright attacked him!) and the lady who had trapped him and his mother did not want mom to kill the poor little guy, so she separated them and brought him to us...  apparently mom was expecting another litter, and was making room... out with the old, and in with the new apparently...   


Poor Sylvester!!  


Only about 5-6 weeks old, and separated from the only family he knew...  One day life was great!! He was with his mom (who at that time was the love of his life).  The next day... he was being attacked by the only one who he knew and loved, captured, put in a box, and brought to a strange place... 


a place full of giants
bright lights, 
strange smells, 
and loud noises... 


then put in a cage to stay until the "foster parents" (ekk!  who were they?!?) came to get him... 

I never expected when I went to work yesterday that I would be giving another piece of my heart to yet another furball.  

To me, yesterday was just another day just like any other...  

But... 

Life had different plans.

This blog is meant to be a telling of Sylvester's journey... 


starting with today.
