As we left the animal hospital after my cat’s 24-hour stay, a sweet kitten greeted us near the front desk. Perched like a tiny supervisor, she was apparently waiting impatiently for someone to power up the printer and scanner—she likes the sounds they make. Meanwhile, my own cat (not pictured here) had made a remarkable recovery during his stay. While the hospital cat kept watch over her beloved machines, I couldn’t help but smile, grateful for the care that had given my boy a second chance.
