“you can get a kitten," I promised my seven-year-old daughter, Cali."As soon as we get settled in our new apartment." Her life had been uprooted when her father and I divorced. So one morning, we headed to North Bay Animal Services to pick out her new pet.
There were plenty of cats to choose from, but Cali had her heart set on two orange and white kittens. The attendant told us they were brothers called Caramel and Butter. They played like best friends. When they tired out, they curled around each other, their identical markings creating what looked like a heart.
Cali wanted to take them both. But the landlord had made it clear that we could only have one pet in the apartment. Finally, we decided to bring Caramel home. Cali renamed him Ozzy. That night I watched Ozzy and Cali fall asleep together telling myself they'd forget about the other kitten soon. How wrong I was! Ozzy did seem lonely without his twin. No matter how Cali and I tried to distract him over the next few days, he wandered around the apartment, crying,as if looking for his brother. After two weeks of being like this, I broke down. We drove back to the shelter, only to be told Butter had been adopted four days ago.
Cali was sad, and I was so desperate to calm her down that I said something foolish. "We'll find Butter and adopt him too," I said. "What are you doing " I asked myself. I knew I'd never be able to fulfill that promise. But it was the only thing that seemed to bring my daughter some peace. With time, Ozzy got used to being on his own. And Cali stopped asking about the other kitten. Our new life was working-out just as I'd hoped. I even started dating again. Brian, who had lost his wife four years ago, seemed promising. He had a daughter, Ruby, just a year older than Cali. I'd met him online and talked to him for months before we planned a dinner at his home.
