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.

I Get Her Back



DEPUTY BABY G:   "I GET 'ER BACK! "
"When I hear something that sounds like... "yooouuu little [ ] !", I head for the hills. I scram real fast before she even finishes THAT sentence, and fly in the other direction and take cover. 

Cause I know I've done something wrong - but I don't know half the times what it was, I do a lot of things, so... I just know that THAT sound? Don't sound too good to ME and I gotta get outta the way.

Now, don't get me wrong: I get her back when she goes to the kitchen. I take my spot up on top of the "refrigerator" and then I start in on her, crowing and meowing, yelling and demanding.. Non-stop.
I get her back."

Something's Got To Break



GOOGIE'S GRITS:
"There are certain pressures that AH will not succumb to in mah own territory. Ah got leettle Babeh on one paw, watching him, taking care of him.. Ah got leettle Getty on the other paw, giving her awl Ah've got day and naght.. Ah got momma to go to and take care of HER needs, give her awl mah love .. which Ah don't get to do every single mornin' cause Ah got Getty awl over me.. Ah got that little meenx, Katie, giving me her looks .. Well somethang's got to break, sometames.

Sometames, AH've had it pretty much up to mah ears and Ah won't put up with eitha miss Katie's looks or mah Pipi's shenanigans. Ah'll chase that leetle minx up the stairs lake Ah'm on fire; show HER what AH'm made of. And Ah'll scruff mah Pipi every tame Ah get a chance.

Whah, last tame Ah took a stroll toward the keetchen with leetle Getty we took a pause bah the steps there and next thang Ah knew, that leetle minx came after us and charged past us up the steps - and then turned around and eyeballed me in a stalking stance no less, holding her butt up in the air, challenging me. She wanted mah attention and she GOT mah attention. Ah gave her chase all the way up the steps and into mom's room where she had to hade from me."

Leading The Charge




LITTLE GETTY'S WORLD: "LEADING THE CHARGE"
"I know what the sound of a can opening means, I'm worldly enough. And that is why I rush into the kitchen and put the heat on mom lady.

I'm the only one leading the charge."

Song Of My People



Above:  Baby G (ginger) and Katie Kitty are alerted to Getty's cries.

LITTLE GETTY:


It's that time of the night again when Little Getty starts in with her lamentations of pain and sorrow as she stole to the kitchen by herself to cry out loud. 

And as she started with the first strains of her song of pain, Katie Kitty sat up on the chair to watch, Bella turned to look over, and Baby came down the steps to her rescue with his neck outstretched toward her.

As the pack focused in on her like spectators of a train wreck, Little Getty never hit a second note. She quieted down and kept it low key.

More Than I Signed Up For




DEPUTY BABY G and LITTLE GETTY:

"Daddy told me that I was to back him up in all he does so I have followed him and watched him closely for so long now. I have ran to miss Getty's crying, tended to her needs but this is just a little more than what I thought I'd signed up for.

Not only did she climb into bed with me, she now slapped me silly upside the head! And what was I supposed to DO? I did absolutely nothing - except to lean to the other side until my neck hurt! And waited for her to calm down!

Being a Deputy can be really stressful sometimes. I'm gonna tell Daddy about this and see what he says. "

Momma Done Gone Crazeh




"Momma done gone crazeh with this new thang...
She picks it up, this round thang that keeps jeeeglin in her hand and then she throws it at the wall or the see-through door where we like to look out at.
And she goes, "SPLAT!!" and the thang flies onto the wall and ...looks funny. And then she peels it off, laughing.
Ah followed the crowd and stayed on the sidelines watching this whole new thang while Katie Kitty went krazeh right along with mom. Katie thought it was a "nummy-num" and kept chasing mom with it, crying and begging and at one time stealing it from mom and running away with it. "
They both done gone crazeh."

Pouncing Ahoy



GOOGIE'S GRITS:
"Ah got jumped bah Babeh like he thought Ah was a horse bah the toy area.

He done disturb me like that and all Ah could do was hiss and tell him to get off of me! He gets crazeh like that once in a while and Ah get quate indignant, what can Ah do?

Well, Ah may not wanna pounce back on Babeh - but Ah'll stalk and chase Katie Kitteh who happened to be nearbah. Aww yeah, Ah deed.

Ah gave her a good chase to re-establish mah authoriteh."

I Will Not Dignify This



"I'm not a monkey. I'm a CAT.

I will NOT dignify this activity with my attention. 





See, mom likes to hold that phone thing in front of our faces.  Well, no more.  I will not engage in that type of thing - anymore.  Because it's fake.  It's meaningless.  It shouldn't be getting in the way between us.   There is just no purpose to it and she is making a mockery out of me and my very existence by just holding it up in front of me like that.   Please! "












A Quiet Dinner



LITTLE GETTY'S WORLD:

"I took my dinner with miss Bella tonite. We had a quiet dinner together, our bowls side by side. I was hungry but I had to wait for everyone else to leave ...Daddy shares his bowl with me but then mom lady gets too close and I scurry off.

So I waited and felt just as safe to be with miss Bella. So I approached and she nodded at me:
"Come on up, missy.. Let's have dinner together, it's okay. ", she reassured me. "There are plenty of leftovers for both of us; I'm on my thirds already anyway, you can have the other bowl."

So I dug in, facing her. See, she's like my big aunt. She and I go back a ways together, she was in the other moving box when I first met mom lady, we came together. And she scolded me when I was hissing at mom lady, she was really angry at me for acting like that; she's taught me things. She and Daddy. "

Wayward Little Minxes


GOOGIE'S GRITS:
"Ah have ONE rule.. And one rule only:
You do nawt jump and roll on tha big scratch post thang WITHOUT mah permission. AH am the keeper of the scratch post thang, even though Ah nevah use it as suuuch, eet eez a coveted object lake our pack's "monoleeeth" which AH feel eet needs to be protected and guarded - at AWL tames. [and most probably because it is a phallic stick covered by carpet shooting up in da air!! ]

And therefawre, AH ain't gonna let the likes of wayward minxes like Katie Kitty saunter up and roll all ovah it without getting my express blessing and approval first.

She nevah duuuzz.. And therefawre, Ah will give chase every tame. Ambushed her bah cawmplete surprase this last tame. "
