Cosette's Story


Today is my cat Cosette’s 6th birthday. That’s her in the photo (Ignore the un-vacuumed carpet!). Cosette is actually an answer to prayer. My cat Paislee had died in July 1999. About a year later I had been considering getting another cat, but I wasn’t sure if I should. I prayed that if it was God’s will for me to get a cat, that he would find a way to bring me one. Well, less than a week later on Oct. 20, 2000, I was working in dispatch one night when a man came into the lobby with a kitten. He had found her with 2-3 other dead kittens, and the mother was no where in sight. Usually we turned animals over to animal control, but I knew she was my answered prayer, so I agreed to care for her. She was only about 2 weeks old at the time, and I didn’t even know how to care for such a small kitten. But I bought her a kitten bottle and kitty formula and fed her for quite a while. Obviously, she’s with me still. I have the strongest bond w/ her than any other cat I have ever had.
Unfortunately she is very sick right now. She was diagnosed with an intestinal inflection 1 ½ weeks ago, but now she has quit eating. I will probably have to take her back to the vet by the end of this week if she doesn’t improve. I’m really worried. If any one is actually reading this, and you believe in prayer, please pray that God will heal my cat, Cosette. Thank you!
