Marcel

I sent my husband to the vet to pick up medicine for Bitsy and look what he brought home…

His name is Marcel…

…and he’s 7 years old.

His owner is in the hospital dying and Marcel needs a new home.  That’s all my husband had to hear… he brought Marcel home.

He’s very sweet, a little shy and he’s spent the last month at the vet just waiting for the right person to want him.  My husband thinks it was meant to be and there’s no doubt in his mind that Marcel was waiting for us.

Marcel’s had more than his share of hard times.  He once got caught in the engine of a car and he’s had some major surgery because of it.  It left him with a large chunk out of his hip area. We don’t mind a few imperfections.  It’s part of his charm.

Chelsea and Bitsy are really good with him but Mooch isn’t quite sure she likes him.  She puts up with him and I’m hoping she’ll come around.

Marcel hasn’t shared a house with other pets before but so far he’s doing just fine. He’s an amazing little black cat and I have totally fallen in love with him.

 I know it can’t be easy for a little cat to understand what’s happening but he seems to be settling in.  I hope he likes his new home :>)

    I am not a cat person (allergic, unfortunately) but he is a beauty. How wonderful that he now has a forever home. Dare we hope… a black cat BOM????? wouldn’t that be wonderful too.

    Oh, my gosh…once my husband went to the pet store to pick up guinea pig food and came home with 2 Chinese dwarf hamsters. {He’s not allowed in there any more without a “responsible” adult!”} But they were an awesome addition to our younger family, I must admit! Marcel and you are lucky to have found one another! We just had a scare with our sweet dog, Ginger, and can’t imagine being without her either.

    Oh Anne! This made me cry. I cannot image the relief that Marcel’s previous owner must feel knowing their sweet pet is going to be well cared for. I love that the vet took him in to find him a home and I love that you are giving him a forever home! Man you opened the flood gates and it just makes me love you all the more! I really enjoy your blog and all your sweet patterns and fabrics and BOMs. You have the biggest heart and bless so many! :0) Hugs to you! Welcome home Marcel!
