We got a new kitten. Ben's sister has two full-bred Siamese cats who had kittens this spring, and she was kind enough to give us one. He is so beautiful and adorable...the kids absolutely love him. They really get a kick out of seeing him do kitten things like chase his tail, and pounce on every little thing that moves or makes noise. He is so funny to watch. So far he is nameless, but I am thinking that out of the suggestions so far, Sonic is the one that is going to stick. My Cinders cat is still unsure of him. She's rather old (12 this year, like Buddy and Missy), and when he wants to bat at her and play kitten-style she thinks she's under attack and hisses at him. She is slowly warming up, though, I think, and hopefully soon they'll be best friends. The one thing she has enjoyed about having him around, though, is his food. She keeps sneaking into Buddy's room where the kitten chow is and eating it. Naughty cat.
I can't wait to see the darling cards I know I'll get in return! That's the most exciting part...well, that and sending them and making everyone think you had all the cute ideas.
