I’m glad with today’s news that I can lower my blood pressure (and hopefully yours) with this story. It was September 2011, and I was taking out waste to the compactor in the back yard when I heard the mewling sound of a kitten in distress. I dropped what I was carrying and went looking around. Finally I concluded the sound was coming from some empty flower pots and went over to check them.
A beautiful cat, and a beautiful story. I often wonder who rescues who in these circumstances. Seems like creatures come into our lives when we need them, maybe not at the immediate time, but in a future moment. Sending warm and healing wishes to your partner...
I hope you don't mind that I have been remembering you and Jurate each night in prayer since you first let us know of her Parkinsons.
Tonight's Feline Friday was outstanding in its photos of beautiful Roscoe and its warm story of inter- species care. Bless you TC, bless the brave Jurate, and bless the fabulous Roscoe as you three continue this journey together. This little community you have nurtured here is clearly with you in spirit and support.
What a beautiful cat! He looks almost identical to our cat, Buddy, who was also feral when we adopted him - but we got Buddy from a shelter and he was six months old at the time and had never become socialized, so it was pretty rough with him at first. He's come to accept us, but he'll never be affectionate. But, over the 12 or so years he's been with us, he tolerates us quite well (especially at dinner time) and I even caught him purring once while he was allowing me to pet him!
So very sorry your wife is suffering with Parkinson's. I can't imagine how difficult that must be for you both. Sending warm wishes and good vibes your way.
What a beautiful story. Roscoe giving so much love to Jurate after so much love she has given him. “The love you take is equal to the love you make” Paul McCartney said it well. Our animal friends can teach us so much. They are much better humans than we are. Thank you TC❤️
What a beautiful post. Animals save us, they help us be better humans for sure. I really love feline Fridays as all your posts. Best wishes to you and Jurate.
Sending warm comforting thoughts to all at Chateau du Chat. I just had the memorial service (last Saturday) for my husband, who died of Parkinson’s-related causes. A heart-breaking disease.
What an awesome human being Jurate is, every two hours. With such dedication, he could only thrive. He is returning the love, as all pets do if given the chance.
I really like the way Jurate created the heartbeat with the ticking clock. That was very thoughtful. Wonderful how that love is being returned. Did you take the terrific photos of Roscoe? Thank goodness you’re posting FF; it really helps. ❤️

What a sweet, handsome and kind hearted fellow. This story was the perfect antidote for this week. Thank you!

The story of the little runt Roscoe growing up to be a prince truly purred at the vision of Jurate and Roscoe playing together.

What a beautiful & handsome boy!! ❤️

I (heart) Roscoe. What a lovely story! Thank you so much! Yes - a BP relief for sure.

Another wonderful kitty. Glad your wife has Roscoe for comfort.
Beautiful cat, lovely story! All ours are ferals or abandoned animals who found their way into our house and into our hearts.
Pets rule our lives back east. Have for decades. For good reason. Invariably they give more than they get. Thanks for Feline Friday.
