"Who can believe that there is no soul behind those luminous eyes!" Theophile Gautier
A Guest Journal Entry by Sky
Those scared olive green eyes swiftly cut through my soul just like lightning, blazing
through the darkened skies. In a flick of a finger, I found myself wanting to have YOU.
I MUST have you. Who am I to resist that
silent call to belong and be loved? Those eyes
begging for attention, wanting a home.
You had me at first sight baby...smitten by
everything that you are.
YOU are MINE.
Right that very moment I first laid my eyes on you, I knew instinctively that I shall be your
last lover. Twice you've been given away. Abandoned. Well not anymore. I shall be your home
until your very last breath. I shall put an end to your suffering and vanish that ever pressing
anxiety of being put to sleep in that shelter. A beautiful creature like you deserves to live,
to receive LOVE. I ache inside for the abandonment you went through. I despise everyone who
contributed to every bit of your suffering but at the same time, thank God and the heavens
for leading my eyes to meet yours and touching the deepest part of me enough to make me want
to have you oh so desperately.

You see my dear, I have never really been a cat owner nor have I been into cats per se. I grew
up having dogs for pets and the very day I visited the Humane Society website where your picture
appeared, I was actually looking for a dog for adoption. The very moment your picture flashed on
the screen, I ceased to look further. I knew in my heart the search for a potential pet ended right
there and then. Ironic as it may seem, but there I was wanting so much to have you. I got instantly
mesmerized by your beautiful eyes. Suddenly I had the urge to rescue you from that shelter and
give you a better place to live in.
I shall give you
EVERYTHING your tiny heart desires. You can have all the tuna,
salmon and chicken in the world if that's what pleases you. Take all the naps you want
on my cozy bed. Take everything that I have and make it your toy and you won't hear me
complain. What matters to me is that you have a good life, a truly happy life and to
enjoy living to the fullest. I shall make sure you get all the necessary health supplements
available in the market and take you to the best veterinarian in town. There is no limit to
my loving you.
From now on, I shall name you Boeboe. But surely, I shall fondly call you my baby.
At night I shall cuddle you close to me, stroking you ever so lovingly. I shall
endlessly whisper words of assurances to wash away your feline fears. Let me heal
you with my devotion and affection, now and in the coming days.
Here's to your long happy life and to the million laughters I shall have with you
