So did you ever think the animal shelter would have a Buy One Get One Free Special on Kittens? We took a trip down to our local shelter to check out the kittens. (Our black cat, Molly, was hit by a car 2 months ago. The kids have been wanting another kitten but I was trying to wait until school was out and we would be home for a while.) So today was the day! We found the white and orange kitten first and then Zane really liked the black and white kitten. They both kept meowing hysterically at us. The orange one even tapped Kaylee on the shoulder from inside the cage. We were only going to adopt one but Zane really wanted the one "with the little mustache"
So, after some deliberation, cell phone calls to Dad and promises to help mom we brought home TWO...... Of course the workers are trained well and know just when to throw comments into the conversation like "They really do better in pairs" "The price is the same for 1 or 2" "If you get one now and then try to introduce another kitten later to an adult cat it could be bad"
So here we are home with Izzy and Webster. Izzy is the Black and white female and Webster is the Orange and white male. Both have been respectivley neutered and spayed. David and I had different ideas about the name for the Mustache cat..... I voted for Groucho and David voted for Adolf.
There has been one major advantage, the amount of time spent holding a cat has been increased.
