Introducing Simon!!

Hiya!  My name is Simon Hunter Alexander Meezer!!

TLWTCOMN (The Lady Who Takes Care Of Me Now) had to drive 14+ hours almost straight to get me home!  But she promised that I could tell the story today - 


On Friday I was loaded up early in the morning with my brothers & sister into a big long metal monster & we headed up to someplace called Ohi-o.  I was very scared & worried because we were all separated into different PTUs.  The trip was hours & hours - I couldn't see anything 'cept the back of the driver's head!!  Jazz, my oldest brother, was so upset at being in the PTU that he struggled & scratched at the metal bars until his poor little paws got leaky - the driver stopped & took him to a V-E-T to get fixed up, but he left the van running so that the rest of us kitties wouldn't get hot.  Finally we stopped in someplace called Columbus & some of my brothers went away.  A few minutes later, we were on the move again - I was very worried at this point...  I didn't know what was going to happen!!  This time we stopped in someplace called Mansfield.  The van doors opened up & this lady climbed in.  I knew in an instant that she was going to help me - I just knew it!  She was so nice & talked so sweetly to me & my sister that I felt a little better.  She brought her own PTU with her & when she opened my door, she asked me to get into hers - No pulling or pushing - she just asked!  Since my own PTU was yucky & smelly (I, um had a little accident), I went right in - It was nice & roomy, plus it had a nice cushy pillow!  She exchanged a few words with the driver & this other lady (I think her name was Judi) & then we set off in her big metal monster.  This trip was hours & hours - but I was so comfy in this new PTU that I stopped crying!  I was so quiet that the lady stopped half way to check on me to make sure I was ok - but I just looked at her & mewed that I was fine.  

Finally, late in the evening we stopped at someplace the lady called "home".  She brought me inside & introduced me to two new kitties - she said they were my new brothers, Nico & JayJay.  Which was weird, 'cause I already had brothers of my own!  What the heck was she talking about??  The little cat named JayJay came up to my PTU, looked in & hissed.  I didn't like that one bit!

Then she took me upstairs & put me into the bathroom.  As if I hadn't been through enough today - she came at me with a soapy warm cloth!  Didn't she know I knew how to clean myself??  I didn't like that either so I ran & hid in the bathtub behind the curtain - I kept asking her where I was & where my family was & WHY SHE INSISTED ON RUBBING AT ME WITH THE SOAPY CLOTH!!!  (she said I was a stinky-poo)


She gave me some really yummy stinky goodness to make up for the soapy cloth & I was sooo hungry that I gobbled it all up in only a few bites!  Unfortunately then she closed the door on me & I was left alone...  So I cried.  A little while later, the lady came back in & said that everything was set up & she carried me into another room where she laid down with me.  It was very nice - but I kept asking her what happened & where my family was.  I was so confused!


The next day I woke up & the nice lady was still sleeping.  So I mewed a little & she woke up.  She said it was time to get to know the boys & opened the door.  I walked out & looked around - it was very different here!  The lady grabbed her blanket & headed downstairs, so I followed.  There I met another meezer - he looked just like me!  Except he was big & long with huge paws!  I went right up to him & said hi!!  But he just backed away & hissed!  What the heck is wrong with these kitties??


I guess the lady was so worn out from the trip (I was too - why did she have to sleep so much??) She set up her blankets on the couch & laid down again, but she started asking me what my name was.  I told her that my name was Bubba but I didn't respond to it...  (she tried to call me by that name & I walked the other way) So, she started calling out names - Prince!  Ashley!  Bartho-le-Mew!  Didn't like any of these, so I didn't respond.  She kept going - Barnaby!  Barney Miller!  Beauregard!  Nothing. More name calling... After several more, she called out Simon - I liked that one, I even mewed!  She took that as a sign & started calling me Simon.  That's my new name!  She said my full name was going to be Simon Hunter (because I was on the hunt for a new home - Thanks to Jacqueline & her kitties) Alexander (because she said it fit) meezer!


Anyway, that's my story so far - I hope these kitties will warm up to me, I really need a friend!  The lady said I could start blogging on here & that I could probably find some blogging kitty friends in the meantime.  Will you be my friend??
