PRINCESS's STORY

"The Princess Diaries" began about fourteen years ago as emails to cat loving friends. They were stories about Princess's diary, a tabby cat who was born in 1989 when I rescued her. She was about four months old. She was in tune with everything I did or even think, she always amazed me so much, I just had to write about her. After nineteen years with me, she
went to the Rainbow Bridge in August of 2008.

The house felt painfully empty after her passing. But I vowed never to replace her. In my heart, she was irreplaceable.
And then I started to see her in my dreams. Suddenly, I remembered one morning that I had seen her back in her healthy form and I was told "she is ready now". I was not sure what that really meant.

Just a couple of days later, I was led to a pet psychic by other people at an Expo event. It was an unplanned, spontaneous occurrence, I had not thought about visiting a pet psychic and did not even have a picture of her that they could use.
Princess' spirit came through the pet psychic who repeated those same words I had heard in the dream: "She is ready" .... to be born again.

How would I find her? How? She said it would be "like a Petsmart, one of those places".

I took it in stride. I still did not want to replace her with any other cat. One day, about 2 months later, I found myself suddenly making a turn off the main road into a Petco I never go to, away from my area. I felt compelled to go in even though I had no other cats to care for. I spotted an adoption fair poster in there... and I heard clearly in my heart and mind the thought that 'you've got to follow up on this - don't let it go'. I did.

I returned for the adoption fair and as I entered, I began to feel like I was in a trance.. I kept looking in cages but could not "feel it". Finally, I came to the end of the cage line and I stood motionless, staring at this tiny tabby baby sleeping on top of a larger orange fluffy kitten. She was less than 2 months old. As I stood there, contemplating my feelings, the orange kitten stood up and came to the front of the cage, reaching out to me with his paw... He let out a meow at me as he saw me take a few steps away, mulling this sight over in my mind. I turned to see this kitten holding out his paw at me, literally meowing for me to come back...

When Princess II came home with Gabriel, she was barely 2 months old. And she knew. She knew all the old tricks and phrases - and she wanted to show me exactly what she knew.
She was born in the same type of body, a tabby.

I could not tell while she was a tiny baby but she grew to have the same type of bow-legged look to her hind legs. She also carried the same fear. Princess was fearful of the scrunchy sound of plastic or paper bags all throughout her life with me, it may have been something that had happened to her in her first 4 months of life before I rescued her. She also had a herniated belly when I found her in 1989. Now this new kitten, as she grew, had a slight protruding feel on the same spot of her belly, although vets did not detect anything 'wrong' with it.

To this day, the new Princess is still fearful of scrunchy bag sounds while no other cat in the household is.
"It's time for beddie bye now", I said when she returned to the house as a two-month old - and on cue, she climbed up the stairs immediately and looked down at me from upstairs for my reaction. I was just floored ...this little kitten responded to a phrase she never heard of before. "Wanna get some 'nummy-num'?" - Yes! She ran to the bowls. This was her first time as a new kitten in the house.

It was a miracle - and we are still living it. It has been now been over 8 years later now since her new incarnation.

What-In-The-Hale?

Ah waus snoozing awah this mornin' when Ah came to at some point and realized that Pipi wasn't around. Huh.

Well, Ah heard 'em both coming een later awn, Pipi and mom. As they came upstairs, Ah started to notice Pipi wasn't herself..

Ah sprinted over to her and she told me about her trip to "the doctor", that's the word mom says to her.

"Googie, just be lucky you weren't there, okay? I'm really not in the mood, I'm serious. They did something to me back there and I'm not sure what but.. it was kind of an invasion of my privacy".

Ah scrambled to check Pipi out, sniffed her curiously as evah, trahing to figure owt what was different. Ah had to make sure she was awright in awl the right places, eef you know what Ah mean.

"Goog! I just can't stand it!"

"Aw-raight, Pipi.. Ah tale you what: Ah'm gonna really trah this time.. Let me .. straddle you a beet, here... "

Ah looked back at mom's direction as Ah cawntinued to straddle Pipi. Mom seemed beesy with the 'thang' on the daning table [the laptop]. Ah had to step up to the plate 'cauze Pipi told me that they did these thangs to her over there at 'the doctor's' and naw... naw she waus AWL over the place.

Ah finally settled mahself awn the table.. And looked at mom quate disappointed, downright deesgusted, when she passed bah.

[He did too... I've never seen that look on him before.. ]
