Friday, May 12, 2023, my life changed. I was 14 weeks old and all I knew about life was the home in cattery NO* Frostfall. Here I have lived with my siblings, cat mom, cat daddy (whom I really did not see much) and the rest of the family. Friday 12 May 2023 at 17.15 I was placed into a backpack and carried out of my home and away from all the safe smells. By two totally unknown people!

I lie if I say it was exciting. It was scary! Of all my siblings I was the tiny one, and also the one who was most sceptical of the world. Which world by the way? As I told you, I only knew the life in the cattery. For me there was no world outside the home.

And into a backpack they place... me! It did not stop there, these two people took me in a car and we drove and we drove. I never thought it would end. I screamed at the top of my lungs, and the woman took me of the bag quickly. But it was still scary!

In the backpack. Take me out of here

I am out of the backpack, but still very frightened

When the car finally stopped, I was put in the bag again and now I have to admit that I have probably displaced a lot of things that happened that day. But when I was released from the backpack for the last time, I was in a place with enormous new, unknown smells. What does a kitten like me do? Run and hide - run and hide!

Goodbye, adios, farewell, youwill not see me again. Maybe I will come out, maybe not. In any case, you will not see me again on this day, Friday, May 12, 2023.

Safe under the bed

See you when I decide to leave my hiding place.
