Sassy

I have a cat that loves to go for walks. Her name is Sassy. I found Sassy on Thanksgiving day , two years ago. As I walked my dogs on the levee that day, Sassy came out of a drainage ditch limping on a hurt leg. She ran up to me desperate for some attention. I picked her up and took her home. I never intended to keep her since I already had three dogs, a cat and two hamsters but she quickly became part of the family. She is such a sweet cat and has never been scared of our dogs. I take the dogs for a walk everyday and Sassy would always sit in the driveway and watch us leave. One day she decided to follow us and to my surprise she followed us all the way around the block. Well she’s been following us ever since. It’s been about nine months now and she goes everyday. If she gets left behind she is quite upset when we get back. My neighbors laugh when we walk by and I get stopped everyday by walkers and joggers that are amused by the sight of a cat walking with two dogs. She makes me laugh everyday, so this Thanksgiving I give thanks for my silly cat named Sassy.
