\u00a0So Castro came to live in Mississippi, too.<\/p>\n<p>When #1 Son moved, he actually moved to Mississippi. \u00a0He was a student at Mississippi State University. \u00a0Through a very long story that we&#8217;re just going to skip, Castro lived a short while with him in his apartment close to the University.<\/p>\n<p>Then, one day Castro went missing!<\/p>\n<p>We looked everywhere for Castro. \u00a0We made phone calls. \u00a0Put up handbills. \u00a0Walked all over the place calling for him&#8230;after about a month, we came to the conclusion that Castro had used up all 9 of his kitty lives. \u00a0We were sad but it happens.<\/p>\n<p>Three or four months after this, we received a phone call at our home. \u00a0It was about 4:30 in the afternoon. \u00a0I remember this because I was getting dinner ready. \u00a0It was the University!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you have a white cat named Castro?&#8221; said the voice over the phone.<\/p>\n<p>We explained that we used to but he had gone missing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, we have him. \u00a0He has been living in the ceiling tiles above the cafeteria in one of the dorms. \u00a0We finally caught him and you have a half hour to come get him or we&#8217;re sending him to the pound.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Oh!<\/p>\n<p>Well, dinner got put on hold that day because MFH hopped in the car and drove to Starkville, Mississippi, to get that cat.<\/p>\n<p>When he had moved into the apartment with #1 Son, he was a regular sized cat. \u00a0When we picked him up, he was HUGE!!! \u00a0That cat had been eating very well after the college students had gone to bed! \u00a0#oink<\/p>\n<p>Castro is now living with us. \u00a0No more dorm life for him. \u00a0That was 3 or 4 years ago, I guess. \u00a0He&#8217;s a happy cat these days.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s Castro&#8217;s story.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/?attachment_id=3819\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3819\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3819\" alt=\"12974279_969426233177513_1902614880695584316_n\" src=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12974279_969426233177513_1902614880695584316_n.jpg\" width=\"366\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12974279_969426233177513_1902614880695584316_n.jpg 366w, http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12974279_969426233177513_1902614880695584316_n-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 366px) 100vw, 366px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>#IRun4Aiden<\/p>\n<p>#teamZensah<\/p>\n<p>#AbbottWMM<\/p>\n<p>#MoveItMonday<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/?attachment_id=3791\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3791\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3791\" alt=\"61a9061b-4e19-43de-a64b-c2f81e63d48d\" src=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/61a9061b-4e19-43de-a64b-c2f81e63d48d.png\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/61a9061b-4e19-43de-a64b-c2f81e63d48d.png 800w, http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/61a9061b-4e19-43de-a64b-c2f81e63d48d-150x150.png 150w, http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/61a9061b-4e19-43de-a64b-c2f81e63d48d-300x300.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>#SweatPink<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/?attachment_id=3802\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3802\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3802\" alt=\"NEW-SPA-badge\" src=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/NEW-SPA-badge.png\" width=\"250\" height=\"258\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Castro is one of our two cats.
