Buddy Lee Beardsly

This is Buddy Lee our cat. You can see by the pictures as a kitten why we fell in love with him. OK, when we saw the pictures as a kitten everyone thought he was a he. I took Buddy to the vet to be neutered. I left him for his surgery and then sat in the car and cried. I had fallen hard for that kitten. I prayed for the Dr. and for the surgery to go well. The receptionist told me the Dr. will call about 1:00 to give a report. So off to Buffalo Grille to comfort myself with some eggs and grits. Got home and around 11:00 the Dr. called. My heart was in my throat and it was way too soon for a call. When he said, I have news for you concerning Buddy of course my thoughts go straight to Buddy died in surgery. I sat down to take the news... tissue in hand. Dr. Hopper reported Buddy is a Budette. What? He is a she. Did I want to continue with the surgery? Of course. I sat there in shock and then called Roy. I told him Buddy is a girl, which he said oh surgery went well? No...he is a she...a female. He wasn't shocked at all by this news, he said "Buddy never acted like a male cat." Like Roy has been around a lot of cats. But, we love Buddy and she brings us great joy and happiness. She follows me from room to room when I am at home. She sleeps at the end of our bed but sometime in the night she moves up and sleeps right under my chin. Just thought I would share my Buddy or Buddie Leigh with you all.
