Excerpt: After foster Fanny busted through the kitchen baby gate, I found her upstairs in the bedroom with a shredded a box of tissues littering the rug. I was furious and determined to kick her out for this and previous antics, but the rescue politely asked me to hold her one more day, as they thought they had a family for her. Upstairs as I cleaned the mess, I realized it was not actually tissues at all. Fanny had peed on the rug and tried to dig to China to cover it. What I thought were tissues were actually white shreds of carpeting that were dug up from the bottom of my purple rug! Although I was really ticked, I must admit the ridiculousness of it all made me laugh, and as her imminent return to the rescue approached, and Fanny started her please don't give me back, I love you routine by approaching me and putting her head on my shoulder, I decided to let her stay...forever. -Rose Van Der Velden
