My house isn't much big, so we can't have a dog, so we've always had cats. But I have bad luck with pets because, every cat that I had have suffered an accident.
My first cat, what was a gift of my neighbour, he got hurt because he got hit by a car, we couldn't do much for him because he ran and hid in a near house. And my second cat, days after taking him to the vet, suddenly die, he die poisoned.
Both weren't with me for more than a year, and when the third one arrived I don't had much hope, I thought things like "when it will have an accident, it won't succeed..."
But here is, without two claws, with a part of the fur on his back discolored (due to a wound), and with a little less of the half of his tail.
I love all cats that I had, from the first to the last. But I've become more fond of my Neko.
Since that I have it, that it could be 3 years ago, he has been a important part of my family.

When he is like that I can't resist to take him pictures.
