I wasn't really a cat person until I met Pepper. She just showed up one day in the back of the place I used to work. Sweetest disposition in the world. We later found out that she was pregnant, so we took care of her and her babies. Once the babies got adopted, I took her home.

We estimate she's at least five -- but she's graying fast, so she's probably older. She's been in excellent health, and has been a most wonderful little pet.
