Chynna

3/10/2005


What is it that makes one fall in love? This hard question has haunted man-kind from the beginning of time, I’m sure. To my chagrin, I think I’ve fallen madly in love – with a freaking cat!

Any of my friends can tell you I am NOT a cat person. Other than being concerned for their general animal welfare, I could give a flip about the little butt lickers. Then into my life strolled Chynna.

Chynna is a kitten about 9 months old my friend Karen and I rescued from the rain and cold not long ago (see earlier post). She is loud, and bad, and bitchy, and cuuuuuttttttte. I really think she walked into my life as a joke from God. For five days, she sang under my bedroom window morning, noon, and night. When I would check my mail, she was always there to say hello. And on that final night, she looked up with those beautiful yellow eyes as if to say, "you know you want me".

So I took her in, found a spot for her at a reputable animal rescue, paid the fee and mourned when she was adopted. I still have her picture displayed on my desktop.

Funny thing is, I still don’t really like cats – there was just something so special about this particular cat…

Damn! I think I fell in love with a one-night stand!
