Happy Birthday, little Bean!
It was one year ago today that we brought little Bean home from the animal shelter. And what a year it's been! LOL!
John and I went to an adoption event at the shelter where we saw many kittens. And then we saw Bean. She was the runt of her litter and the only one not adopted. She was tiny, underweight and had a food allergy that was pretty much being ignored. But when she reached through the bars of the cage and grabbed onto the brim of my hat with her little paws I was lost. :-)
We'd never had a kitten before, our other cats having been adults when we adopted them, so this last year has been a learning experience! Some good, some not so good, but one look at that cute little face and we wouldn't change a thing. :-)
Speaking of changes, look how much she's grown!
Here she is, the very first day we brought her home:
And one month later: with the proper diet and lots of loving care she put on weight and is already much healthier.
And finally today, one year later: my little girl has grown up so fast!
One year down and many more to come, and I know you'll always keep us on our toes, baby Bean!
