I almost forgot, happy 9th adoptaversary to our Bennyhill! 🎂🎁🎉 I cannot believe we've had this goofball for 9 years now. I believe he's used up about 529 of this 9 lives already! 🙀😹🙈 A little background on his adoption day- I came across a FB post from the local shelter advertising an adoption special. I already had three cats and didn't "need" any more!!, but I decided to look anyways to see if I could find my favorite, a grey & white. The moment I saw "Ronaldo", I heard this voice saying that I needed to go save Ronaldo. That voice wouldn't let up, and eventually a few days later while I was in town running errands, I had to make a stop at the shelter to meet this mysterious Ronaldo. He didn't pay any attention to us during the meet & greet (he was hyper-focused on that evil wand toy!). I was standing next to his cage visiting with the other cats getting ready to leave, when all of a sudden he started literally punching my arm through the cage! I thought eh... all the way out to the car... as I didn't need another cat... then we went right back in and brought him home with us! I still didn't know what to name him a few days later, until his crazy antics presented themselves and I knew the perfect name right then - Bennyhill (after the famous comedian). I just can't believe his sister isn't here with us celebrating this amazing milestone, for Benny should have been dead multiple times over the years from serious illnesses and most recently a severe stroke. Let's hope we have another 10 years of anniversaries to celebrate together. 💜
