Gratitude and Good News
Emmett: We want you all to know how grateful we are for all the supportive emails,
the lovely tribute badge, comments and donations
when we lost our sweet Pip.
You are all amazing, wonderful friends and cannot know how much it meant to all of us.
Like Pip, I am a special needs cat too,
I have the wobblies, but can function just fine – thank you very much.
There is something about the special needs cats like Pip and I
that touches a tender place in our Mom & Dad’s heart.
That and being gorgeous mancat house panthers of course.
Emmett: But today it is all about how gorgeous I am,
as well as some good news that Mom wants to share.
Take it away Mom!
GREAT NEWS!
HB 1818, which would create a civil penalty for Texas pet stores selling
puppies and kittens from puppy mills, is one step closer to
becoming a law as it passed through the Texas House, 85-54!
Cat Mom: Texas is moving forward on the humane treatment of animals;
most cities and towns have Spay & Neuter laws in place,
recognize the need and benefits of TNR,
and there are low cost clinics popping up all over the state.
Each step forward is such a victory for all
who have been fighting for these changes over the years.
Thanks to all who keep up with issues that they are passionate about
and get involved with their local and national politics
to make this world a better place for everyone.
Yay to all who recognize the importance of the phrase
‘Of the people, by the people for the people’!

HI there, Emmett! You sure are handsome, buddy, and we are super grateful that you have such an amazing and loving forever family.

Paws together that Texas will move forward and go All The Way with this very important legislation. It is vital that we care for those who cannot care for themselves ~ as said by another “all creatures great and small” ~ indeed, they
need us all.

Well, We are maybe a teensy weeny bit biased when it comes to black panfurs, (Trixie’s influence, no doubt) but We certainly agree you are a furry handsome little panfur mancat indeed!
