Meet Queenie!

[ermingarden]

I have very big news: I've adopted a cat! This is Queenie, and she's possibly the sweetest cat in the world.


Here she is, in a bowtie to go with her stylish tuxedo!

As I write this, she's lying on my desk keeping me company. I met her and brought her home from the city shelter last Saturday, and she made herself at home in my apartment on day one - even sleeping on my bed that night, and every night since! She's an older girl, about 13, and she's very affectionate and comfortable with people. (She wasn't even bothered when I took her to and from the vet on the subway; clearly a city cat through and through!)

Aw, she's very cute!!

[ermingarden]

She is hazardously cute! (Hazardous to my getting out of bed on time....)

How lovely! At thirteen she must have been quite upset in the shelter, as she's obviously been a well loved pet in her previous home. Good for you in taking on an older lady.

[ermingarden]

It's so clear that she was well loved before - she has no wariness around people at all. Apparently she was surrendered to the shelter because a "new family member" (maybe a new baby?) was allergic. Poor girl, but I am certainly very lucky that I was able to bring her home!

What an absolutely delightful cat! I love her white socks. No wonder she's confident on the subway when she is so stylishly dressed!
