Quite a few of our friends have remarked on how well we get along. Sammy was nearly 3 years old, when mama found me on the shoulder of a busy street.....v-e-t said I couldn't be more than a week to ten days old.
Mama really worried about how Sammy would accept me, so for my safety she fixed me a nice comfy little bed in a box and kept me closed in a room by myself for a while. Sammy spent most of his time laying on the floor just outside my door. So as soon as I was able get around a little, mama would let Sammy and I spend time together.
To make a long story short, Sammy fell immediately in love with me, and we have spent most of our time together ever since....mama says Sammy "mothered" me, but I looked at him as more of a father figure....and since adulthood, I have looked on him as my best bud.
It's been a wonderful 9 years for me, and I am so thankful for Sammy and Mama and our home.

Having a best buddy is awesome, isn't it?
Grayson was about a year old and Gandalf was only 3 weeks when Momma brought us home. Grayson immediately adored Gandalf, while Gandalf was very askeered of Grayson for a few months. They've been best buds ever since.
That's wonderful!! So glad you guys get along so well!!
I was just meant to be!
Sigh....what a lovely story! Mommy is CRAZY over those pictures of you both!!!!! Next time she is in Texas, she wants to come and visit you!
Love, uSSSSS
Awww, we think that Sammy is the best to be so sweet to little Andy! You guys are the cutest!
Adorable post! I also love your template and header - such gorgeous color!
Hugs, Beth

Aw, we love this post. We think you both are adorable and are so glad you have each other!
What a great post! We hope you have many more happy years together in your wonderful home.
Brothers are great, whether they came from the same litter as you or not!
What a wonderful thing to be grateful for, Andy!...Thanks for sharing your story and the collage that accompanied it...Really great photos; you were an adorable baby and we see why Sammy thinks you are his baby and why you love each other so much!...xo...Calle, Halle, Sukki
Friendship is something to be thankful for...and you got more than your fair share with a brother like Sammy. I'm glad it all worked out!!
It's such a wonderful story about how you were found and nurtured by your human mother, as well as your brother. Dante is also a motherly male kitty. He was very protective of Dylan when he was small and would groom him constantly.
Sammy sounds like a wonderful big brother to have. You certainly landed in the best forever home you could have wished for. Here's to many more happy years together!
What a great story! Skeeter is SO happy that you boys get along. She couldn't fathom knowing that Andy was getting bullied and Sammy, you are a kind heart for loving him like a Daddy. Thanks for all of your kind words and we send you all Tons~O~Hugs!
What a lovely post!!
And we love the fabulous collage of you!!
Hope you have lots and lots of happy time together for many years!
Andy this is a grate "Thankful Thursday".
You and Sammy really makes us smile.
We loves the new background/header! Your mommy did a spectacular job!

awww what a lovely lovely post :). You guys are meant to be with each other :).
Love the photo collage. It made my day :). Thank you.
Oh Andy what a sweet post about your big brother! It is funny, because our boy Floyd, who looked so much like Sammy, was very "mothering" to Lola when we got her - and he was about the same age (well, probably closer to 4 but still). It doesn't surprise me that a big black floofball would be so sweet at all!
What a sweet story and even more special because it is a true story.
I love the pictures.
Everyone needs a best buddy and Sammy and Andy are lucky to have each other and to have you as their mom.
Yours is a lovely story, Andy. You had lots of luck in finding such a good home with a great brofur.
That is a wonderful story. Thanks for sharing!
From the looks of it the feeling is entirely mutual. You are always so sweet together.
Andy we just loved the whittle baby picture of you and Sammy nosing you on the rear end! He was in love with you right from the start. That is pawsome, you two are so wonderful together.

That's such a sweet story. I am happy that Arthur accepted Rosie immediately and they are so well together, but my poor Pookie never forgave me to have brought a kitten home she just doesn't like Rosie.
Oh my!! I wish me and Clementine got along better!! We don't snuggle yet, but hope to one day!!
Your Austin furiends,
