Location: Gonzales, Louisiana, USA

I drove past Avery walking along the side of a busy highway when she was about six weeks old and had to turn around and go pick her up before she walked into traffic. I wasn’t planning on keeping her, but as soon as she fell asleep in my lap purring like a jet engine I was a goner! A few weeks later she has me wrapped around her paw and is happy as can be. Her hobbies include chasing ankles, climbing curtains and jumping in the dryer when my back is turned! She has a favorite little stuffed mouse that she runs around the house chasing, and I always laugh when she goes over to her food bowl and drops the mouse in so that it will be right next to her when she eats… or maybe she thinks it wants to eat too? 🙂
