Hi friends,
This post is an entry into the weekly Show Us Your California contest hosted by @thesocalhive where we share an aspect of our California.
My family has two outdoor cats as pets, though we didn’t intend for that that to be the case. My kids and wife befriended one neighborhood cat, which then decided to live with us - we have no idea where it came from but it was not fixed and not chipped. Given this, we adopted it but it was pregnant at the time - it had a litter of kittens, and we gave all of them to new homes, except one, which is how we ended up with 2.
We were outside playing recently and a lost dog came into our cul de sac. It looked friendly and I called it over - it was a bit scared as there was thunder and lightning in the area. It had a tag to a pet clinic but it did work, so my wife went online and started posting it to community groups. Here is the dog:
After a few hours of waiting and hanging out with the dog, a neighbor a couple streets away was thrilled that their lost dog was safe :). They came over and picked up the dog, which was very happy to see them.
A happy ending in my California.
Thanks for coming by,
Brian
