Vila (Domestic long hair cat)

Date Adopted

December 1997

Story behind Adoption

This was Megan's first surgery cat that was recovered. She was supposed to do a spay on her, but some else already had. So Megan did an abdominal exploratory surgery instead. She cut her open and then rooted around for a while and then sewed her back up. She got picked out actually by Amy Bauer (see here) since she ran up to the front of the cage that all of the surgery cats were being kept in and looked so cute.

Story behind Name

Unfortunatley while the front of her looked very cute, and she tricked Amy into picking her, she had almost no hair on her rear and had a bad infestation of bugs. We decided that this meant she was a bit of a "Fix-er up" and so we name her after Bob Vila.

Date Passed On

She not only is the best kitty in the world but also the cutest.

When cleaning her belly she can get a buddha belly going.

She never was afraid of any old stupid dogs.
