We miss you, Kitties!

On our first day at the beach, Sam, my mom and I went grocery shopping and stopped at the store next door like we always do. Sam stopped to look at the postcards that are right by the front door. We used to make it a point to buy a postcard or two for Sam to send to her Poppy. It seemed so sad to me to not have that to do this year. To try to soften the blow, so to speak, I asked Sam if she wanted to send one to Zach and Penelope. We had to board them at the vet and none of us were happy about it, but we just didn’t know what else to do. We had no one to watch them and it is important to us that they are safe and well cared for.
Sam loved the idea! Here is the postcard she picked, and what she wrote.
I did write it for her since there is not a lot of room, but she wrote her name and covered it with hearts.
You have no idea how happy we were when, on the day before we were to leave, Â my phone binged with a text message. It was from an unknown number that turned out to be one of the vet techs at the vet. She sent me this photo and message:
“We cannot believe we got mail from you guys! We were so excited and showed all our other friends here! Wow…we feel like VIPs. We must confess that our reading skills aren’t terrific so we are gonna send you another picture of the nice nurse, Jess, who read every word to us! We love you! Headbonks and Purrs, Zach & Penelope xoxoxoxo”
A few minutes later, I got this photo and message:
“Okay, so we asked Jess to read it to us about 10 times…it was so much fun!! We miss you but we are very happy that you are having a nice vacation. We are having a pretty nice time here…getting spoiled rotten 🙂 XO Penelope & Zach.”
It made our day! All of us, but especially Sam. She missed her kittens so much and was so happy to see that they got her mail. I love our vet and this is just one of the many reasons why. 🙂
