This is Rico.
She is a relative
to my house cats.
Actually she is
a granddaughter to
Kyoro.
When she was born,
she was far too small
and her navel cord
far too large.
So her breeder was told
by the vet
that she would not live
longer than a week.
However, the breeder, G chan,
did not give up on her.
G chan gave milk to Rico,
and she drank it,
well actually drank a lot of it.
So G chan decided to
take full care of her
and tried everything
so that she could survive.
A week passed,
and everybody surrounding her
prayed that she would make it.
The navel cord dried,
and she was able to be breast-fed.
She made it.

Can you believe
the vet declared
her to be short-lived?
Rico started to grow,
and become
more and more beautiful.
Thank God,
she wasn't given up
by her breeder,
and thanks to the support
from the owner,
who had learned
that she was declared short-lived
and still dared to be
all the more willing to
become her owner,
Rico seemed to start
to become in full bloom. 

it has been arranged
that she should appear on TV
with an actor, Mr. Takashi Naito.
When she was born,
it seemed that
there was a long way
to go to even just survive.
But she climbed
a rocky hill up to this brilliance!
She is a great cat,
isn't she?
