![]() He comes back wearing thick leather working gloves holding a military knife. Being pregnant I had to put my child’s and my own health first, so I asked my husband to find the thickest gloves he could because he is going to be bit and we will also need a knife or scissors. I start digging around blindly and hear the infamous wet growl, which tells me this cat is aggressive and will attack me. We arrive at the house and we go to her notorious couch. Taking her was not an option at the time so I knew I needed to get her to a shelter where she could find a forever home. At the time I was pregnant with my daughter and my husband and I already had a dog to take care of in our little apartment we shared with his brother. I being a professional told them I would help and I would take her to the shelter for them. One day I was told that my future in-laws needed to get rid of their cats, but they couldn’t catch “Baby Kitty”. I can pick out an animal every where we go and there’s yet to be one I don’t like. I have always been an animal lover, from a very young age. I never really thought too much about it besides wishing she was more social. Every once in awhile I’d see a little flash of white fur run from the food bowls to the couch where she had laid claim. I never really saw too much of her, all I knew was that she avoided most everyone and they called her “Baby Kitty” even though she was an adult. When I first met Coconut she was living with my boyfriend’s (now husband) family. We both have had a lot of trauma in our lives and are very misunderstood but no matter how hard things have been we still find a reason to love life. How am I like her? How did everything play out so perfectly for me to find this little white cat with her unfiltered, unconditional love and imperfections? The bond we have is almost magical, anyone who witnesses it can testify to that. As I sit here typing this my personal cat, named Coconut, is curled up next to me taking a very comfortable looking nap. No matter how hard we try nothing is truly a logical decision, everything is energy and everything will trigger some sort of emotional response. We naturally try to find commonalities with the people and animals in our lives, we even do it when buying random things like furniture. Every pet will take a part of you and you will take a part of it. You can’t avoid it, trust me, I’ve tried. As a professional in the animal industry I know more than anyone that this is true. They say every pet resembles their owner in some way and every owner resembles their pet in some way.
