Katdid Konversation with Pearl

We are so excited to re-introduce our favourite segment ‘Katdid Konversations’ with a very special interview! I am your host, Kitty Mojito!

Please give a warm welcome to Pearl from Oakland, California!

KM: Pearl, a very warm welcome to Katdid Konversations! Thank you for chatting with me today!

Pearl: Thank you so much for having me today! I am very excited to be the first guest at your relaunch!

KM: Great to have you here. Pearl, I understand that you are 4.5 years old and live in Oakland, California! Can you tell me a bit about your life and how you came to find your human?

Pearl: Of course! Our mother dropped me, my sister and brother, in front of someone’s parked car on Camellia Street in Oakland.  We were taken in as a shared responsibility by three neighbors (@jrc2011, @aofner and Beate). JR created our Instagram account and partnered with @feralchange. Our adopter, Stephanie, adopted all three of us. Sadly, Stephanie passed away last Christmas Eve at 41.  We are now seeking our new furrever home and staying with JR temporarily.

KM: Oh, that is so devastating to lose your human! I am so sorry! I am glad you are all safe with JR! After this terrible loss, how has your life changed?

Pearl: My life has changed a lot in the last two months.  My uncle Andrew took us from our Sacramento home to his house in Paso Robles and then back to Oakland. My sister and I have our own room but other cats keep coming in and looking at us or trying to take her food. One of them sniffed me while I was asleep the other day! So insulting!

KM: That does sound annoying. I am glad you are together with your siblings though! Do you have a favorite food?

Pearl: I like kibbles. I’m getting accustomed to the food that JR keeps feeding me but it’s not really my favorite. She just doesn’t know.

KM: Well, now that you shared about it, I am sure JR will feed your favourite foods! Let’s hope she is listening! What about toys? Is there something in particular that you love?

 Pearl: I like catnip toys. Right now, it just seems like any toy in my own home would be better.

KM: I hope that there is someone out there who can give you a forever home! It is always nice to be in a place of your own! Pearl, do you have any special skills?

Pearl: I am very proficient at most office related tasks, but JR will not let me use her computer!

KM: I tell you, the nerve of these humans! All we want to do is help them do their job right and they won’t even let us do that! What do you like to do for fun? 

Pearl: I like playing with feather teasers! 

KM: You talked about your siblings at the beginning of your chat! I understand that your little brother, Onyx crossed the rainbow bridge in 2022. I am so sorry to hear that. Tell me about your relationship with your sister.

Pearl: My sister, Sapphire is my best friend, but we don’t snuggle together much at JR’s house. I like the cat tree and Sapphire likes the fleecy bed under JR’s desk. We used to sit on the back of the sofa and look out the front window at the birds at our home in Sacramento. We like sitting in the sunlight.

KM: That sounds lovely! It is always nice to have a sibling who you like! I, for one, am not fond of my brother, Lynx! I will save that story for later! Instagram is a great place to make friends. What do you like/ don’t like about social media?

Pearl: We need more friends. We are very sad without our human!

KM: Oh Pearl, I hope that everyone who reads this will reach out to be friends with you and Sapphire! Better yet, hope they can find a forever home for you both together! I think I already know the answer to this but if you could make one wish, what would it be?

Pearl: I wish that Sapphire and I could find our furrever home! 

KM: I am sure the purrfect home is out there for you both and it will come your way soon! Before we end, what is one message you would like to share with the world?

Pearl: Adopt, don’t shop! Reach out to your local shelters and rescues and give a kitty a forever home! There are many beautiful and talented kitties like my sister and I who need your love!

KM: That is a great message! I hope that all the humans out there take that to heart! Pearl, thank you so much for taking time to chat with me today! I hope that you and Sapphire find a lovely forever home soon!
