THE GLUE THAT HOLDS IT ALL TOGETHER:
Peter was a
Hurricane Katrina rescue. He was put up for adoption for a long period
of time, but we never had anyone interested because of his age (12 at
the time). So after a while, he just set up shop upstairs with the
girls who answer the phones. He has 2 beds and has monopolized
all the chairs and windows. He is spoiled rotten! He is part of us
now. Occasionally he helps save other cat's lives by donating blood to
anemic patients. He loves to feel important. Who would have thought
the old man who never got adopted would settle here and steal our
hearts!!
