This picture of Lily was on The Ionia County Animal Shelter Website.

Sylvia and I met  Lily on our first visit to the shelter.  We were not going to adopt that day, and Lily was not yet available.  A few days later, the shelter listing was updated and had this to say about Lily:

My name is Lily and I am about 7 years old and a Siamese Lynx Point mix.  I am spayed and up to date on all my vaccines and am FELV negative.  I lived with 59 other cats in the house and they came and brought me to the shelter.  I am a very sweet girl and love getting lots of attention.  I can’t wait to find me a new home and new family to love and care for me.

Today, Sylvia and I returned to the shelter.  We visited with lily for a while and talked with the director about her.  We took care of some formalities and then we were able to bring her home.

Lily and the old man.

Once we were home, Lily went to the heated basement where she has food, water, litter and a comfy bed.  Right now, she is getting acquainted with her new surroundings.  We’ll get better acquainted with her later.
