🐾 Hello again!

Thank you for waiting for me!

It took me a little while to come back because...

I finished everything in my bowl!

Yep!

Every single bite!

I'm very proud of myself. 😸

Today is the second day I'm telling you my story, and I'm so excited to tell you what happened after I found my new home.

Do you remember the warm hands that picked me up?

Well...

Those same warm hands gave me my very first bath.

Image

Oh my whiskers!

There was so much dirt on my tiny face.

They cleaned my little ears...

Trimmed my tiny claws...

And wrapped me in a soft towel until I was warm again.

It felt so nice.

Image

Then something amazing happened.

I tasted my very first yummy meal at home.

It was the most delicious food I had ever eaten!

I ate...

and ate...

and ate!

Image

I was afraid that if I closed my eyes, everything would disappear like a dream.

But it wasn't a dream.

I felt those same warm hands gently pick me up again.

Then I heard a happy voice say,

"Hello, Tiny One. Your name is Chiki. You are our little one now, and this is your home. I'm your Daddy, and she is your Mommy. We are your family."

Image

Family.

I liked the sound of that word.

I don't remember if I had a mommy or daddy before.

I was so little.

All I could remember was being alone.

But now...

I wasn't alone anymore.

Image

Daddy always made sure my water bowl was full.

He gave me fresh food every day.

Sometimes, while he was getting dinner ready, he let me stay right beside him.

Image

I was still very tiny then, so I couldn't see very well.

But I knew exactly where Daddy's feet were!

So I would give them a little hug to say,

"Thank you for loving me." 🧡

Image

Now you know how I found my family.

Tomorrow I'll tell you about another one of my adventures.

I can't wait to see you again!

Love,

Chiki 🐾
