My name!
I got my name from my Ebony. He is one of six kittens that I rescued from a barn when they were about 2 to 3 weeks old. I hand fed and took round the clock care of these kittens and it was sure a lot of work but the most rewarding work I have ever done. I had several cats at the time and sure did not need another one however there was one kitten in the bunch that was solid black and while all the kittens were attached to me and thought I was their mother, this one black one was exceptional. I found wonderful homes for all the kittens and know how they are doing to this day. I had to keep the black one and thus named him Ebony. He is the most wonderful cat I have ever owned and I have owned many cats in my 52 years. Many very expensive pure bred ones as well and while I loved them all, Ebony is so unique. He does think I am his mother. I have to literally hold his food bowl for him daily. He still likes to cradle on my chest and he is about 4 and a half years old now and most likely weighs 18 to 20 pds. He is hefty!! He is spoiled terribly and knows it too! He is the biggest baby and so I am Ebonysmom. Also mom to my yorkie Dixie, my two bichons Missy and Prissy, also mom to himalayans Katie, Korie and Sassy. These are all my personal four leggers and the two legger around here that I am mom to are Heather and Megan, twin girls age almost 20 and Ethan who is 17. Oh and Mom and wife to Hugh, my darling Husband. A crazy life but I love it!!!!!!:) |
