OLIVIA

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

Adopted August 2007 from Bobbi and the Strays (and story submitted) by musicians Heidi Hepler Ramo & Michele (”Mick”) Ramo.  Please visit their website!

Magical Love came into our life one summer day as I was helping out volunteering at Bobbi and the Strays’ Atlas Park adoption center in Glendale, New York. Another rescuer walked in with a little, messy, sore looking, dirty white sweetheart. It was Olivia. We were asked to ‘foster’ her, and, she became the love of our lives forever on that hot August summer day in 2007.

Sweet, loving, kind and a great ability for adaptability, she came to our little apartment with kitties, musical instruments and packed with Love!

She has made our lives full of joy and delight. Her healing presence helps all she meets. Olivia has joined our family of cats and musical instruments. There is never a dull moment around our place!

The best way to show her life with us, and the fantastic change in her health, is to show photos.
