Ranger
by Diane Savoy
I said I would never own a hair-dropping cat!
I went with my girlfriend
to help her pick out a kitten for herself. They were six weeks old . . . Well, I forgot about the hair, the clawed furniture
and all the things that a kitten could get into.
After I took Ranger home I was pondering what to feed her. Well,
I need not have worried. My toy miniature poodle of 10 years that never had pups was nursing this kitten, Cookie. Ranger sure
took over and Cookie just let her.
I now have all new furniture...hair chesterfield, hair pillows, hair clothes —
you name it, all hair...and it didn't cost a dime. Many times I wanted to scream.
He is so big now, 13 lbs., only
a year old, and as stubborn as a mule. I am a senior citizen and Ranger has brought me so much laughter. I called him Ranger
because he has a black mask. Do I love him...? You bet I do!
