Yes, she was the runt of the litter. Yes, she is still small. Yes, her mother went out of her way to get a nipple to the tiny "runtcat" to help her survive with three large male kittens always pushing her out of the way. Yes, we were getting rid of her when she fooled everybody and survived.

But NO, we have never regretted keeping Shiloh aka Sweet Babycakes. She is just a wonderful little girl cat and tough as nails chasing bugs and other strange stuff.

Yeah, I know she had maybe zero chance to survive as a street cat but she never had to try that.

She's just a beautiful, gentle girl and a joy to be near.

She is the "White Blur" - what Mom Nature did not give her for size and camouflage she received in speed.

That little girl does stairs with a quickness that is mind-boggling.

And oftentimes she will come over to me while I'm sitting at my desk and go all "archy-back" wile rubbing up against my leg. And then she'll walk away and look over her shoulder at me with just a nice expression of happiness on her face.
