It has been 2 weeks and 4 days since “Simba and Nala” arrived and as one who has had cats all her adult life, I can honestly say that these two characters stole my heart with faster-than-lightning speed.

Renamed Cooper and Keturah, they are both so comfortable here that you’d think they’d been here for years. I honestly don’t think they would have done well if they had been separated so I am extremely thankful that I was able to adopt both of them. They are affectionate (with one another AND with me!), well mannered, sleep on their own side of the bed (!!) and are already so well adjusted that it really feels like they have always been here. Because they have joined me at this pivotal time in my life, I have no doubt that they were somehow hand-picked by God especially for me — and the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. I did not just rescue them; they have rescued me as well. My heart is full.
