Another Happy Tale
Simon's story is definitely a "Happy Tail" considering its sad beginning.
My boyfriend and I
adopted Simon in March 2010 from MCHS. He was placed in a foster home
after being in the shelter for a couple of days. According to his
history, he was purchased from a pet store when he was 4 months old and
given up to the shelter at 10 months old. The foster home was his 5th
home in 10 months and we were to be his 6th.
