ARAGON & SHADOWFAX
I just wanted 2 thank Michelle 4 suggesting I adopt 2 kittens from the litter of 4 she helped me with from the super urgent list despite the fact they had heart murmurs. Having lost 3 cats this year, I was afraid at first, especially since 1 died of a stroke we believe was I caused by a clot frm his heart. I was only going to take Aragon, after I got past my fear of taking kittens with heart murmurs I also took Shadowfax, fka Devon Blue.
They r 2 of the smartest most affectionate kittens I have ever had the great fortune 2 have - they r constantly glued 2 my side n follow me around like puppies, not kittens and seem 2 have miraculously outgrown their heart murmurs.
.Aragon n Shadowfax are btr than any antidepressant coulld ever be and helped me find happiness again. So thank u from the bottom of my heart .
Thank you n God bless you for all your good work in saving those who are lost and cannot save themselves. Adine Hamlin
