This is my cat, TBJ, who was rescued from a garbage can, at one and a half months old. He had no fur, fleas really bad, and was sick a good long time. Somebody just put he and his brother thomas in a bag and threw them away, alive. I got him from the Animal Rescue league for my daughter when she was eight years old. She was starting not to believe in Santa, and one night I heard her praying to god "God if there is a Santa, I am telling you a secret, Santa will bring me a little black cat". So, the people from ARL dressed up as elves, showed up on Christmas Eve with Tucker in a big box with wrapping paper, no top though, and her eyes about bugged out of her head. However, my son who was five at the time, looked outside and said "Where's Santa's sleigh, Mommy, Santa is driving a buick"! Anyway, I have been taking pictures of the house, and the animals, and thought I would share. Syyd

Great picture! I love the contrast, too. Not believe in Santa!?!? I'm crushed! Still, it's a great story and wonderful of them to dress up and deliver the cat. My cable modem finally works (for now) so maybe I can post some of the photos I've been taking while I had no connection. :)

Oh, cool. I love the way the indoor plants merges and contrasts the tree outside!!

Mmm this is pretty. Wish our cat would sit still for long enough to get a photo. He's too shy..and afraid of boots.

Great photo Syyd and thats a terrific story with it, we had a beautiful white/ blue eye cat that died a few months ago and I still miss her. Cant bring myself to get another yet but my little girl is wanting a kitten.

i like the pic and the story. you renewed my faith in Santa. thanks, gary

You did a beautiful thing Syyd. pic is Beautiful too. This would be even better, if that background tree would be removed. (digitally, not by axe)
