Possum’s adoption story: A few years ago my former next door neighbor from childhood, a neighbor I used to babysit with her two brothers, posted a picture of a kitten she had rescued with her local rescue after a hurricane. I commented that it was the cutest kitten I’d seen and that it would be adopted quickly! My friend fostered the kitten and was coming home and did I want to adopt the kitten? I did! I am a sucker for a kitten, but had just winnowed the herd down and had no cats and two dogs. Well, from 2,000 miles away at the R.E.A.L Cruzan Cats Rescue on the shores of Fredericksted in the US Virgin Islands via two different types of airplane and one very devoted foster mother came my little Possum. I drove to the airport in Cleveland from Erie along the shores of Lake Erie, thunder and lightning booming, I thought we should have called her Stormy instead! She quickly became the queen of the roost and commandeers the dogs to do her bidding. She is THE best cat I have ever, EVER had and I am grateful every single day that we have her! Thank you Cruzan Cats! #catdaysofsummer
