harley here to pat myself on the back as a featured adopted cat from Catales in their Spring newsletter (see excerpt below). "fiercely independent" is me alright, but i gotta say, i do love the perks of being the only cat in this quiet home mom has made for me here. she leaves for work or an adventure and i get the whole king sized bed to myself, and at night i hog the fan. hey, i know a little something about comfort, too, you know? why right now i'm bathing myself on the couch, correction MY couch, while i dictate this note to mom who so patiently dotes on me. she loves me so much i try to smile when she calls me "bug" or "harley bug", i mean, its not exactly manly is it? lol but hey, she knows what i like for toys and having the blinds open during the day, the screen door open at night, and my dish always full even if i don't finish it all i have enough and then some. i know a vet visit is due next month as she has already sat me down to prepare me. i hope i like the new doctor. mom says please go into the carrier quietly, but i saw her looking at leather gloves used for falconry in an effort to protect her arms just in case i fuss.
i want to take this opportunity to thank Deb and the great family at Catales for rescuing me and keeping me around with so much love and attention so that when mom came around she found me and took me home for good. its been over 6 weeks now and i don't jump at the sounds like i used to. apartment living is different and i did sneak out to the hall one night but made a sharp u-turn and high tailed it back inside. mom wasn't pleased with me but i can't say i blame her. i can be a sneaky pete at time.
but yea, this fame isn't going to my head at all. i mean, i was already kind of a big deal before and now mom makes me feel like i'm king of the world every day.

A story like that of Sir Sagamore, a.k.a Harley, is what keeps
all of us in the rescue community plodding on. Sometimes the
good guys do win…
Our “Saggy” was found wandering alone and brought to
Catales a fair number of years ago. Fiercely independent but
one of the most memorable characters amidst the chaos, he
always longed for a home of his own, a castle so to speak
where he could be king without having to beg for attention.
And finally, just a few weeks ago, he found his fur-ever home
with Sharon Arsego. Not only is Sharon patient, kind and
compassionate, she is also smart enough to outwit dear Saggy
as you can tell from the Internet blog she has set up called
Harley At Home. Please follow the future adventures of our
own dear friend Sir Sagamore as he learns the true meaning of
his home being his castle. Harley and Sharon can be found at:

“Harley has made my life a lot brighter. We were certainly
made for each other.” Sharon Arsego
