Welcome Home, Fox
Last month, I adopted my senior boy, Fox, from my local animal shelter. I felt conflicted about bringing a cat home with me because I wasn’t sure if I was ready to take care of him, or if it was the right time during my academic career, but I’m very grateful for my friends who convinced me to do so.
Meeting him for the first time! I recognized his name from volunteering, but I couldn’t put a cat to his name.
Fox is so handsome, and sweet, and now that he has gotten more comfortable, occasionally a little shit (but I love him regardless). He loves to spend time together. That includes hanging around my feet when I’m cooking, snuggling against me when I’m reading, and helping causing trouble at the keyboard when I’m on my computer.
If I’m on the bed, there’s a 75 percent chance that he’s there, too.
Living with him everyday motivates me to push through my education and life in general. He always brings a smile to my face, and I’m happy to be his forever human and give him a forever home.
I love you, Fox!
You’re the best decision I’ve made all year. :)
