Wow, it seems like just yesterday that I found newly born Azar and his five siblings curled up under a car with their mother, who I’d been looking after (which is how I know his birth date). Who could have guessed that five months later I’d take the little guy home and that fifteen years later he would still be here filling my life with joy. I remember when Sunny first got sick telling someone (Jessica?) that if Sunny died I would devastated. Then I pointed at Azar and said, but that won’t even come close to when this one goes. It’s curious, because it wasn’t about loving one cat more than the other. More about the intensity of the relationship. Difficult to explain.

The pic above was taken shortly after I brought Azar home and the one below was taken yesterday evening. I’m so glad it all worked out with his new buddy, Loki. I just love watching those two together.

Happy Birthday Azar!
Let’s have lots more birthdays together, okay?
