Cat's Story (150 words)This is "The Bug". I got Bug when she was only 5 weeks old. The best we could tell was that she was living on the streets, feral and near death when a police officer found her and took her to the Beechwold Veterinary Clinic. The doctors and staff took great care of her and restored her health. A friend of mine who worked there asked if I wanted her. I already had two cats but I just couldn't resist after hearing of her horrible start in life. When we brought her home she immediately became the BIG fish in our small pond. At 5 weeks old we all knew who ruled our family. We named her Bug because she bugged the hell out of our two other cats. She was extremely wild. She would eat their hair!! We considered returning her to the clinic but somehow we all persevered. She never did purr. That's for wimps. But I knew she loved us. We enjoyed her for 21 years. My heart still aches for her.
