Welcome the Newest Members of our Family

Thursday, June 26, 2008

Thats right, we got 2 cats. Last Friday, on our way to dinner we stopped at Fred Meyer. As we were walking up we noticed this woman with 2 cats in a kennel. She was giving the cats away to a good home. They came with all the stuff. Her daughter had them in Alaska and just moved here but could not have cats at her new place. The mom couldn't keep them b/c she already had a cat and a dog. So instead of giving them to a shelter (where they might be put to sleep) she was trying to give them away. I had actually been thinking about getting a cat for some time. Remember the whole kitten ringworm fiasco last year? Well my kids still talk about those kittens. They are constantly begging me for a pet. Then right before we went to disneyland my neighbor came over with a cat and asked if we wanted it. We said yes, but she would have to keep it until we came back from Disney. Then when we got back she said nevermind, she wanted to keep the cat. So it has been in the back of my mind that we want a cat but I just haven't done anything about it. When we saw these cats iI felt it was meant to be. They have been excellent pets. The white cat, Bella, loves Ellie. She sleeps on Ellie's bed everynight. And Mimi, the gray cat is very social and lets Caden play with her. Its been great for the kids and I am just really glad we ended up with some good cats, as opposed to some naughty kittens.
