<\/a>Because \t\tI am contagious to other cats, however, I will have to be isolated from \t\tother cats for the rest of my life. But that’s enough bad news. Let’s \t\ttalk about the good news: I am young, healthy, up-to-date on vaccines, \t\tspayed, and friendly. I have not slowed down for a second to complain. I \t\tlove playing and chatting with people so much that I don’t miss other \t\tcats one bit. The best news, though, is that you are still reading my \t\tprofile and considering taking me home — and that’s about the only news \t\tthat will turn this year around for me.
