I had just recently lost my beloved Yadi Mo to kidney failure. He was only 4. My heart was broken. Then about 2 months later, I saw a picture of the cutest kitten up for adoption on Facebook. I went to the website and read his story. Zero was found as a stray and taken to a high kill shelter. He missed the list to be put down twice. A lady came in to pick up a dog and saw this little guy. She took him home with her to foster. I filled out the form online and less than a week later, he was mine. The vets office didn't know it at the time but when he was neutered, it was discovered that his back right hind leg was broken in two places. Zero had surgery to fix the break. I had never had a kitten with a cast on its leg. Six weeks and 3 casts later, his leg was finally healed. Zero has brought joy back into my life. He makes me laugh on a daily basis and is probably the most affectionate kitten ever. Now who wouldn't want to love that sweet face. I am so glad he is in my life. That's why his name is Zero Chances Miracles Happen.

1. I've been catless for 2 years now

and I hate it, but I have no one who is willing to take a fur baby when I kick the bucket.

I do love reading these stories. I also love the pitter patter of cat feet up on my flat roof--a couple of neighbor tuxies have decided it's a great place to play--it's just odd to hear stampeding cats without the resulting crash as something is knocked over.

Everybody hug those fur kids. They don't stay with us nearly long enough and some day you might be in my place, without any of them.

3. Can you get involved in a

cat fostering organization locally? You could either foster cats or be assured that the organization would foster your fur babies when you go.

4. I have thought about volunteering with the AHA

but my health is really bad these days and I have trouble doing a lot of things around the house. I doubt my ability to care for another furkid adequately.

5. That's too bad - I'm sorry to hear that

Is your health good enough to do get out of the house? Maybe there some volunteering that doesn't require a lot of effort but would allow you to be around cats - working the phones at the shelter, that sort of thing.
