This was Sammy in February, 2000 (just weeks old and newly adopted from shelter!)
This is Teddy in February, 2017 (11 months old and newly adopted from shelter!)
THIS IS OUR STORY
First of all, WELCOME! I’m Angel Sammy………….My Mom started this blog some years ago when I was an only cat in the house……….I’d been adopted in February 2000 and spent almost 17 years being TOP CAT at my house before being called to the Rainbow Bridge on December 2, 2016. It was a very sad Christmas for my Mom and Dad. They knew they would want to get another kitty but needed time to grieve and get used to NOT having me with them after so many years. At the end of January Mom was checking the shelter website where she and Dad had adopted me all those years ago and on February 10th, the site posted that they had three kittens for adoption but there were NO photos available! Mom and Dad went down the very next day and were first to go into the kitty room when it opened and there was my baby brother Teddy…………a GINGER and WHITE guy just like me! Imagine that! What they didn’t know is that I had been very busy looking for the RIGHT KITTY for them and when I found him, I made sure he was at the shelter in time for them…….they fell in love with him immediately. He was 11 months old and looked SOO much like me it was like we were twins.
Teddy was born on March 4, 2016. He’s a bundle of energy and fun. He owns all three floors of our house and runs up and down all those stairs like I used to when I was young before I got old and unable to run! I am enjoying being his “mentor” and most of all his GUARDIAN ANGEL as I watch from the Rainbow Bridge with pride and love. I will always be here for him – just as I am for my Mom and Dad.
Both of us will now be blogging here. Our blog title changed to TWOspoiledcats but our blog address remains ONESPOILEDCAT. We hope you enjoy following our antics.
So, that’s all about us……..we hope you will subscribe to our blog and leave comments when you feel like it.
Heavenly Hugs, Angel Sammy
(with help from both my Mom and Teddy)

Hi Miss Layla! Mom and I LOVE your website…….you always have such fun postings and pictures. That Odin is a wild (Wilde?) and crazy boy but I was like that when I was his age too. I have a special feeling about Domino – I still remember the old guy cat who we named Toby that wandered into our yard one day and was our “yard cat” until he died. He was my first really good friend but he was very old and tired when he came so we knew he’d not be with us for long. Anyway, thank you so much for visiting my blog. I have a lot of fun thinking of things to say every morning! Mom said to tell you she DID give me extra treats today because I was a very, very good boy at the vets this morning. I’ll probably talk about it tomorrow on my blog…you know me….I’m one spoiled cat but I’m also one spoiled cat that BLOGS!!!
Hugs to you and your kitties!

I love hearing Sammy’s perspective on things. My sister in law’s dogs write a blog as well, but I think they have help. I’m looking after my son’s cat right now. She likes to curl up on my lap and use mental telepathy to influence me while I’m at the computer. Looking forward to reading more of your blog! Terri

Hi Miss Terri! Welcome to my world. Never a dull moment in my house. Someone has to keep my old parents on the move and on their toes and I guess that’s ME! Mental telepathy is our best way of communicating with humans….sometimes that “brain email” works best but other times what I call “THE LOOK” works too. You know – when you catch your cat’s eye across the room and just KNOW what he or she wants???? Cats are pretty darn crafty that way. Hope you visit again soon!
