KR whisked this mamma (Jade), son (Obsidian aka Obi) and her other three babies out of harm's way at the 11th hour from a city facility. Unfortunately, two of her kittens were ill and eventually succumbed to passing over the Rainbow Bridge while a third kitten (Pearl) battled pneumonia in an incubator. After a couple of weeks, three motherless sibling kittens joined Jade, Obi and Pearl in the kitten room. Jade adopted those three kittens as if they were her own. I watched this little family for weeks on Explore.org. As time drew closer for adoptions to begin, I would find myself wishing and hoping that Jade would be adopted with one of her kids and that the little black puddle of badness known as Obi would not be left behind due to nonsensical black cat superstitions. This went on for a week, I couldn't get Jade and Obi out of my head and then it dawned on me that I didn't have to wish and hope for the outcome I envisioned for them, I could be the one to adopt mom and son.... and Jade is now MimiJ (short for Mimi-Jade), she is named after one of KR's caretakers. They allow me to play with them at all hours of the day and night, sleep under the same roof together and provide them with food and medical attention. In return I receive unconditional love, Eskimo kisses, hand baths and a shower companion. Yes, you read that right, Obi doesn't realize he is a cat and likes to stand directly under the stream of water in the shower on a daily basis. They have slight medical conditions but are doing great. They chase each other throughout the house, perform in their own feline wrestling matches and cuddle together still just like when they first arrived. Not a day goes by that I don't look at them and just break into a grin!
