Well, Hello Bond

If you know Hutton you know she is an animal lover. She REALLY loves reptiles and just all animals. For a while now she has said she wanted a cat, specifically a Devon Rex. During a very rough chemo session Jeremy promised her a Devon Rex kitten when she was done with chemo. In true Hutton fashion, she began researching, studying, and doing all the things to learn about Devon Rex kittens and cats and is pretty much an expert at this point. 

Well, as a reminder sometimes God may not answer some prayers (yet), but He does sometimes do things to remind you He’s still there, because recently, everything fell into place, the stars aligned, her oncologist signed off on the kitten, and we were able to give Hutton her sweet Devon Rex kitten. 

This kitten came from a breeder on the East Coast, so when we were at her PET scan appointment we were able to meet the kitten transport at UCLA to get him. We all knew that the kitten was coming except for Hutton - we told her that we were waiting for a door dash from moms favorite sandwich place in Westwood, when in fact we were waiting for the the kitten to be delivered to us at UCLA. We waited on the dining commons lawn with one of her nurses (who is an amazing friend) as well as her bestie Isha, her mom and one of her other friends who happens to be her child life specialist at UCLA. When mom went to get her “sandwich” and came back with the kitten, whom Hutton has named Bond, Hutton was shocked! She was soooooo happy to finally get her kitten. The kitten was supposed to be a celebration gift after Hutton completed chemo, God touched this breeders heart, who had the EXACT kind (color and markings) Hutton wanted, was available now, and wanted to gift it to her! So of course we said yes and turns out it was exactly when we needed him to join our family. 

We have had Bond for a little over a month now and he is the perfect addition to our crazy family.  He absolutely LOVES cuddling with Hutton, which is exactly what she wanted. He is the sweetest boy, but is also an absolute terror at the same time 😂😂 We are just so in love with him (even Jeremy 😝) Dash however….is slowly warming up to him.
