I was heading to church with my mother. When we got there my father came rushing up to us, "Honey, you’ve got to see this! I found two kittens.” My mom sighed and left to go and be a greeter at the door. "Come on," my dad said taking my hand. So we went to the church kitchen.
My dad told me they showed up at the church early this morning looking for food. He tried to get near them but they both hid behind the bushes. He pointed to where a scrawny Calico kitten and a fat black kitten with a broken tail were hiding. "Dad can I please hold the Calico?" I asked him. He nodded approvingly and gently got the Calico. She was very young and so skinny you could see every single bone in her body. Her ears and tail were bigger than her whole body. I looked at my dad and asked him if we could keep her. He sighed and said, "Well we have to ask your mother."
I took a deep breath and I went and told my mother about the cats. She immediately said, "We don't need a cat now." I refused to give up. Soon, my dad came and we told her about the female Calico. She sighed and said, "We can keep her." I cheered. My cat Vanessa is doing great. She is now two years old. She is very spoiled now. I am finally able to say she is mine. She sleeps on my bed with her little stuffed animal. I can't believe it was over two years since we got her. She is a very sweet cat. She gets in trouble a lot but I love her.
