Description
Hello All!!
I wasn't going to put this one up cause I have so much of Janel up in my gallery, but had it in the forum ( not as postworked hope I didnt overpostwork it ) and was told I should put it in my gallery ...
This one goes with a true story ;
We were heartbroken. Ringo our new male ragdoll kitty was missing for a week . We thought he was a goner when we talked to the neighbors who told us coyotes got a whole bunch of cats at night recently ( there were missing cat signs everywhere on our street hanging up ). Dinner time came and we heard a faint meowwww ..-got out the albacore tuna ... he soon followed the smell. Tired, real dirty ,and compleatly exausted . Ringo was hungry , thirtsy and REALLY needed a bath ( I let Mike do the bath part lol) ...
SO A happy Christmas this year -we got our beautiful ragdoll kitty back although a bit skinnier and humbled a bit now back in our warm home with food and love now I think...
( the nieghbor up the hill told us he was living up under their redwood deck and that their big husky was gaurding him - and probally keeping him from comming back too ...lol)
I am thankful this holiday . Janel is the biggest kitty lover of all and she was spontaniously hugging him here after the bath ...( she didn't know I had a cam in hand or didnt pose for this shot here when I took it)
Sometimes the best gifts are that of the love you share within your home and heart!. This pic is very special to my heart and thought I would share it with you...Taken with my canon and postworked and softened to add to the mood of it ...it was much sharper but I wanted to equally try and give it the spiritual mood that I feel when I look at it ...
Thank you for all your time and comments I am finally not sick anymore and the kids are aways from the computer playing thier new game cube games so I can actually come on here yeaaaa~~ lol
Love to you all!!
((( Big Hugs )))

Love it! Such sweet and beautiful young lady! Superb done!*****!
Great moment: very nice and kind!!! Lovely shot!!!
Interesting history and excellent photo my friend.....!!!
Love the story, Kimmers! And isn't it amazing how pets can struggle to find their way home. Well, the guard dog probably did his best to prevent it while carrying out his "guard duty" - but most likely with good intentions. LOL! Glad for your daughter's sake. Her Xmas must've really perked up bigtime. Happy holidays and thanks for sharing the photo and the true story!
Fabulous capture and I like the postwork too. It's good to hear a pleasant ending story, especially around Yultide! Great capture and background info!!
Very lovely pic and so happy you found your cat. Sure is very happy again now.. she love him so much. Congratulations
What a purrrrrrrfect Christmas story and beatiful presentation as always
So adorable scene and excellent composition !!! :)
A very special photo - a perfect moment of such pure love. When I was a teen our wire-haired terrier, Laddie, suddenly came home after being gone for three weeks. We left the door slightly open and one day in he walked, tiried, filthy, hungry, and very happy to be home. I'll never forget the joy. :o) CC
What a wonderful christmas gift...to find a missing friend! Im happy for you Kimmie!
Oh Kimmie, what wonderful news that you have him back, so glad for you!

A beautiful ,moving moment in time, you've captured. I had the same thing happen with one of my most beloved cats one Christmas, only to have the local radio station call 2 days before Christmas to say he had been found. It was the best gift ever. LoL. Yes Love is the best gift ever:0)bonita
Oh, Kim, this is GREAT NEWS!!!! Oh, the poor baby and then to know a dog was 'guarding' him too! LOL I love you gave him Albacore :) Plain ole chicken of the sea just isn't good enuf for Ringo. :) HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU! (HUGS!)
