Well Shortly after Hairry passed I knew life at our house wasn't the same. This have been very quiet less three pets (Hairry and the two dogs). Sophie and Fuzzy have become play mates and Curly is happy Fuzzy is leaving her alone. Both Curly and Fuzzy started sleeping with me at the same time the first night Hairry was gone (Hairry was a Momma's boy and would run them off).

So I knew I would be getting another nakid just didn't know how or when and I have posted a few times that I was just leaving up to fate. Well I think fate happened! I set out emailing breeders and put out the feelers that I wanted a blue baby and would like yellow eye (I wanted one that looked NOTHING like Hairry). I got a few replies that were WAY out of my price range but knew it would take months and I was more than willing for the right one. I stumbled across a add for a rescue/re-home yesterday and after reading the info clicked on the pic.... HOLY CRAP he looked EXACTLY like Hairry! I closed the add in tears and went about my business thus something was making me go back to the add a few times until it finally clicked... This was it this was the sign.. He was something I was SO not looking for but after talking to the owner knew it was meant to be. His name is Diesel and he is about a 6.5 hour drive away in NC (one way) but that is ok. What is 6.5 hours for a life time of love. I showed my Hubby (who is still upset about Hairry) and my daughter. They both replied "if that is what you want to do" . I talked to the lady who has him all evening asking questions and filling her in on my babies and the loss of Hairry. I will be Diesel's t3rd and final home. I am planning on driving up to NC tomorrow after work and staying at a hotel then drive back home Sat morning.

So let me know what you think. I have attached a pic of Sweet Hairry Yoda and a pic of Diesel.

Go with your gut. If it's telling you it's meant to be, then it probably is. I think Diesel is a handsome fella and will be a very lucky kitty to be in your home. Do you know why this poor boy has been passed around so much?

I was told the first person got him and had him fixed and declawed to come to the conclusion she wasn't a cat person. Really these are the wrong cats for someone who doesn't know if there a cat person.... really?? So the lady I am getting him from took him because the first lady didn't want him and she has a full schedule and knew it wouldn't be his forever home.

I truly believe ^ Hairry Yoda^ Is sending you " the one" to love in his honor..
Diesel is a handsome boy - special too that he is a rehome looking for his forever home - a kind loving family to call his own.
Fate...

Have a safe trip.. Thank you for opening up your heart and home to handsome Diesel

Awww!!! I am so happy for you Nicole! Things happen a certain way for a reason and I think you are right! This guy was meant for you! I am sorry that you couldn't go with my breeder but I understand about expenses. I wouldn't be able to buy a sphynx at all if it wasn't for this girl buying a game item from me for a large amount of money! Diesel is absolutely precious! He looks like he really needs your love and I can't think of a better person to give it to him! My heart aches along with you over the loss of Hairry, but it also sings for you in finding Diesel! I can't wait to hear all sorts of stories about him and how he fits into your house hold and can't wait to see all the glorious pictures I know you will take of him along with your other naked babies! Much love! And safe Travels! xoxo

Awesome! Only you can know in your heart if it is right or not. My wife and I had the same discussion and feel that when the time is right, the situation will present itself to us as well. Congratulations and safe travels. :)

Awwwww Thank you @Yoda mom ... I am not hitting the road till about 3pm. Our branch manager is out for the day on vacation so I have to be here. I may try to sneak out at 2. I should arrive to Diesel at 9:30 ish and we will then head to the pet friendly hotel to bond and crash for the night. I am not taking my laptop so I won't stay up super late posting on the Lair. I should be home on Sat around 3pm so I will take lots of pics of our bonding road trip. I went last night and bought Diesel treats, a disposable cat box and a soft lime green blanket. Violet LOVES the blanket and was still snoozing on it this morning.

I was told all the owner got when she took in Diesel was a card with his info on it (shots, DOB & name) so that is all I have. He was born on 2/25/2013 and is current on all his vaccines. I explained that all my babies have there own blanket so I have to get Diesel his own.
