So here we go.

These are only a few of mama’s and papas kitties over the years…uh…lots of years.

All beloved, each one a character, leaving sweet memories behind.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Drywall…found mewing and hungry at a building site.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fiat…found at the Fiat car agency in Santa Barbara, no mama, so you know the rest…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stella, found calling outside in the rain while mama was inside drawing a little black kitty illustration for a book!  And there she was, REAL.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Daniel and Sweetie, best friends their whole lives.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hooker, found literally in a gutter, and went off into woods later never to return…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sushi, brought to mama and papa by a friend who couldn’t keep her.  They did for 14 years.  One of mama’s big regrets, not being with her when they vet put her over the bridge and out of pain.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Luna, with papa’s daughter many years ago, found on Mulholland Drive at the full moon. Mama opened the door to her (then) pick-up and in she leapt!   Mama put up “Found kitty” signs all along Mulholland and the next day papa took all of them down…he was in love.

And now there is Loulou (that’s me) thank heaven, who wandered into a strange garden after living on the streets and there was a dish of food but I was frightened.  Still, I ate it and ran.  Then mama put the food closer to the kitchen door and I sneaked up on it and ate the food and ran.  Then mama put the food inside the door and I ate it on the third day, and STAYED.
