I adopted Scrimpster when she was 3-1/2 months from a non-euthanizing facility. She was a unique kitty. She had extra toes on every paw, was gray-colored to the point she sometimes looked slate-blue. For so many months I never thought she would grow in to her "big ears." She was the sweetest cat I ever owned and she loved me unconditionally. She was also a character. For 10 months she was an "only child" but I got a second kitty just after Scrimpy was a year old. She loved her new companion and graciously accepted the new kitten's presence. It always cracked me up: new kitten was long-haired and Scrimpy was short-haired and had the furball issue as she groomed the new kitten every day of her life until about a month ago. New kitten apparently didn't live up to Scrimpy's standards! I will miss her tremendously.
