From The Cat-Alog | Meet Laveau

As you may or may not know, I love cats but have been cat-less since my childhood cat died when I was in my early twenties. And over the years I've spent plenty of time harassing my parents (when I still lived at home) and Justin (since we started living together) to let me get a new cat. Finally after almost ten years of being a cat-less cat lady, Justin broke and told me that I could get a cat.

So after about a month of planning and collecting essentials for my new cat, Justin and I went to check out a number of rescues here on Long Island to see if we could find ourselves the puurrfect little kitten. And after hours of searching we found a little gray female tabby that we both vibed with at Hopkins Cat Rescue whom we named Laveau.

We've only had her for a few days but I am absolutely in love (I think Justin is too). She is so sweet and mushy. She is literally everything I've always wanted in a cat.
