Xena came walking out of the shrubs at a camp site when she was 6 weeks old. Mother was nowhere to be found, so the Cat Care Society, a local rescue organisation in Dordrecht, was called in. Peter, one of their volunteers (and a moderator at my cat forum), took her in.

He published some pics of her on the forum and I fell in love with her straightaway.
My first meeting with the warrior princess

She grew up so quickly

But she remains very naughty
