FEATURE PET:

“Chloe” by Julie Good

Shortly after me and my brother opened our eyes and meowed for the first time, my cat mommy was hit and killed by a car in
May 2018. A very nice lady rescued us and named me Juno. I was too little to remember my brother’s name, but he wasn’t a
calico like me. I must admit I’m very needy and talk (MEOW) a lot since I lost my mommy when I was a kitten.

The minute I laid eyes on my potential new mommy I turned on the charm! How could she resist me? After all, I am gorgeous
with a tricolored coat in hues of orange, black and white. It was love at first sight, I said goodbye and thank you to my foster
mommy and happily went home with my new real mommy, Julie Good.

I was a little nervous about moving to a new home and leaving my brother and all my foster kitty friends. Mommy Julie was
very reassuring and loving. I was pet so much I was tuckered out from purring so much. Soon after I settled in my new home
in Arizona, mommy and I decided Juno’s a nice name for a cat in Alaska. We pondered, meowed, purred and finally decided
on my new name: “Chloe Good”.

Little did we know we would be moving and joining Daddy Joey in Roseville, CA. My mommy and her friend took good care
of me during the drive from Arizona to California. I tried my hardest to sleep and not cry. Mommy told me what a good girl I
was. I moved into my home on Coryton Lane on April Fools Day 2019.
I love to lay in the sun and look out the window. I immediately discovered the front window and perch there as often as
possible. Mommy later told me the neighbors walking by commented on me before she met any of them. Told you I’m
gorgeous! My Uncle Bob says I’m a stunner.

I’m still very needy. Mommy says I’m just smart because I meow/talk to her when I want something (open the shutters, pet
me, feed me, play with me, etc.). I make mommy giggle because I sniff/explore anything she brings in our house. Everyday
after breakfast and dinner, I meow for my mommy and daddy to play with me. And if they take too long, I meow louder and
sometimes they meow back at me…. Like I understand them! Meow, meow. When I’m not cat napping, I like to run up and
down the hallway chasing my toy mice. My favorite hobby is watching the birdies in the back yard; if only I wasn’t an indoor
cat!

Princess Chloe is truly our little friend and family!

worldwide for their good luck.
