Instead of sending out an annual update with my Christmas cards this year, I've decided to create this blog so that you, my friends and family, can follow me as often or as little as you like all year long! As the title suggests, I am always on the go and can't wait to share my experiences with everyone and hear about yours too!

My Chubby Princess



The original title of this post was "My Princess GiGi," but as I write this my legs are falling asleep because of the weight of my chubby kitty sleeping on my legs, so I thought it was fitting to change the title.

I want to introduce the newest member to my family. Gidget, aka "GiGi." She came with that name Gidget, but it reminded me of how much trouble I got for chopping off the hair of my mother's vintage Barbie doll named Gidget when I was a child so I went for a more sassy nickname.

I got GiGi in April when she was about a year old. She was found under a trailer park home in the snow in January. It was rumored that she had been bullied severely by the male cats in the trailer park. As a result, she was quite skittish when I first got her, but something about her appearance and timid demeanor tugged on my heart strings.

I am happy to say that while she is still a shy cat around other people, but she is very loving and attached to me. She has made an excellent companion for me and I am happy that I was able to provide her a calm, loving home.
