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 Something Is..



BELLA:  

"I was lounging in peace on my own bed downstairs, that's my private spot.  When I suddenly heard "what's going on?".

When I hear that from mom, I know SOMETHING is going on.  So I jumped off and trotted up the steps immediately, I did not miss a beat.  I wanted to see WHAT was going on, so as I came up on the last step I already had my inquisitive look in my eye.   And who do I come up face to face, but big dodo Googie.   "What happened, Goog?", I inquired calmly.   He avoided my gaze and pretended to look around, right and left, his tail kinda twitching around..

I moved on into my area to investigate further.. and he moved on into me, trying to bully me.   "Hey, hey.. What's it TO you? huh?  Huh?", he tried to be all that but I looked back at him and I ignored him, continuing to walk towards the dining table where I saw little Getty crouching.   "Oh please Goog, give it UP!", I looked rather bored with it all.  I know his moves by now, and I have finally learned to call his BLUFF!   Well he didn't give up, he kept moving in on me.   Just as I crouched and hissed  in my defense, mom stepped in and told him to cut it out.  Hah!  He had to jump a whole loop over his prized scratch post at the last moment.  

I finally got some time to get to the bottom of it - as to WHY DID mom say "what's going on?".   I stooped down, lowered myself to the floor, and looked at little Getty carefully and patiently.   "What happened hon?  You okay? Did someone chase you again?"   "No, really.. it's okay.. ", she hesitated but looked over his way.   "He just.. you know.. He just.. got mad cause I bumped my butt up his face again, so.. And I just didn't see it coming, he startled me.. "

I turned and looked his way, disgusted... He was not loitering by his scratch post like a spoiled child, acting like nothing happened.. "

Zoom Control



Ah had to go on hagh alert tonate..  Ah was relaxing on the coffee table close to mom, mandng mah own business, when Ah see Pipi starting to go haywire..  We all did.. You couldn't miss this speeding bullet, jumping and running all around the room and up the steps like a firecracker.

The thang eez though?  AH know how she gets.  And when she gets like dees?  She is liable to go pick a fight with mah little babeh-Getty.   Who was also manding her own business under the dining table.

So Ah wasted no tame.  Ah had to jump off that coffee table at once, and run on ovah to Pipi where she was now closing in on mah babeh-Getty under the table:   "What chu doing dere Pipi ?  ", Ah inquired quite concerned, mah ears pointed down and mah snout getting closer to hers..  Ah was in no kidding mood, Ah was intent.   Mand ya, Ah wasn't gonna go as far as to twist mah neck, because she hadn't done challenge me - yet!

"Settle down girl!  Ah don't like it when you go crazy like dees.. Somebody's gonna git hurt!", Ah impressed upon her.  She looked at me for a long time, stopping in her tracks.  And then she sat down and chilled.   Looking at me obediently, Ah might add.    Little Getty was just nearby us the whole tame, watching.

As the dust settled, Ah decided it was now safe to walk away and go back towards mom.

Well, Ah got scooped up.. And Ah was the only one, was the thang.. So Ah panicked.  Panicked bad.. Ah panted and screamed on the way there.. And then Ah met "the doctor".. Ah played nace, Ah deed.   Soon as mom opened the top of the carrier Ah just kept sitting there, watching the lady next to me while we waited.  What IS this place?  Ah wondered.. Mah fears were still on high alert.. Ah just didn't understaaand WHAH Ah was there.. But then Ah heard other cats and ... animals, (thank dey call them "dogs").   So we got taken to another room, me and mom..  And this young lady, she was talking to mom.   Ah realized it was all about me..

A Life Of Its Own



BELLA'S BITS:  

"I went over there at the kitchen place where I sit at my favorite spot.. Well, besides the brushes that mom uses to 'make me feel better', there's also a white string over there.. hanging from the window.   So after she went over there and pulled the string, and the window got bigger?  I went over to play with the string. It was calling to me and my passion.

What do you know, my paw got stuck on it.. Play became a nightmare within a second when I realized I could not let that stupid string go, and it took a life of its own.. I yanked this way and that and started to growl desperately.  And then prissy Pipi shows up with this 'Gotcha!' look in her face.. The stupid sissy was stretching her neck out at me.

"You making a mess?  What are you DOING?", she had the nerve to question me at such a time, her neck outstretched the whole time toward me, her snout pointed downwards in a stalking stance.   "Leave me alone you little minx!", I snarled as I swung the other way, string attached to my paw out of control.   I began to look as crazy as Katie Kitty.. Just as mom came over, I was able to free myself on my own.. I trotted disgusted out of the kitchen, you could hear my paws click on the hardwood.  [ and her belly swinging side to side ].. "   :))
