Gavin Wesley Zimmer born March 8th 2007.  I never thought I could love anything as much as my cats (much to my husband's dismay, of course :)) until my son was born.  Gavin was born to love Ragdolls too just like his Mommy. 

I love my little kitty, she makes my house a home. She always is my best friend, I never feel alone. She makes me smile, she makes me laugh, She fills my heart with love... Did some breeder breed her, or did she fall down from above? I've never been a breeder, seen life through their eyes, I hold my little kitty and just sit and criticize. I've never know their anguish, I've never felt their pain, The caring of their charges, through snow or wind or rain. I've never sat the whole night through, waiting for babies to be born, The stress and trepidation when they're still not there by dawn. I've never felt the heartache, of a little life in my hands, This darling little baby, who weighs but 60 grams. Should you do that instead of this...or this instead of that, Alone you fight, and hope one day, he'll grow to be a cat, and bring joy to another being, and make a house a home, You know it's all just up to you, you'll fight this fight alone. Formula, bottles, heating pads, you've got to get this right, Two hourly feeds for this little guy, throughout the day and night. In your heart you know, you're almost sure to lose the fight, to save this little baby, but God willing...you just MIGHT. Day one he's in there fighting, you say a silent prayer, Day two & three, he's doing well, with lots of love and care. Day four & five...he's still alive, your hopes soar to the heavens, Day six he slips away again, dies in your hands day seven. You take this little angel, and bury him alone, With aching heart and burning tears, and an exhausted groan, You ask yourself "Why do this?...why suffer all this pain?" But see the joy your kittens bring...it really self explains. So, when you think of breeders and label them with "greed", Think about what they endure to fill another's need. When you buy a kitten and with your precious dollars part, You only pay with money...we pay with our heart. Author unknown

Even though I do not believe in the practice of declawing the front nails I would rather educate you than prohibit this procedure and have it done behind my back anyway.  Please visit the link below before you decide declawing is right for your cat.
