Hi, I'm snowstorm, and I want to share the story of my cat, Olivia!
Olivia is a three year old cat and she's pretty cute! She's all white
with calico ears and tail and a big black spot on her back. Olivia
likes to get into people's cars and go to sleep, which is just what she
did last summer. Unfortunately, she was sleeping in someone's car when
the person drove away -- with her still in the car. When they discovered
her they tossed her out on the side of the road, which was about 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) from our house. She tried to make her way home, but got hit by a car.
Luckily, the girl who was driving the car loved animals and was a
veterinary assistant at a Vet Hospital. She took Olivia straight to the
hospital and called the vet (this was at 1:00am in the morning, too!!).
Meanwhile, we missed Olivia and didn't know where she was so we called
around to the pounds and vet clinics. Finally, we found her!! She was not in
great shape when we found her but she was still alive. The vet told us
she might not live and asked us if we wanted to have her put to sleep.
She also said to keep her alive would be very expensive. We all wanted
Olivia to come back home, so we decided to make a change and we told the
vet not to put her to sleep. We visited her in the vet hospital every
day, and about a week later she was doing much better and came home.
Olivia is now a year older and is just and cute and playful as she ever
was. So I'm glad we didn't put her to sleep. It was definitely worth
all the money we had to pay and the time we spent looking after her
because she is part of our family.
