Kids...lol


(Awe!!!!!) Here are our cutie pies! We were so fortunate to come upon two kittens. We got them on November 4th. They are brother and sister. They were about to be put to sleep when I saw them. Knowing this information, my heart just couldn't let that happen. I'm not a cat person. Give me a big muddy dog, I'll be happy. But Reese Jay has been wanting cats for a long time. I saw these and immediately thought of him. I went and bought food, kitty litter and toys. When Reese Jay came home from work that night he was so suprised and so estactic! For days we were trying to come up with names. We were thinking Figero and Cleo (Pinochio), also Simba and Nala (Lion King). Finally, after a week went by with nameless kittens we chose Lady (for the girl) and Chester (for the boy). Lady fit her personality perfectly. She is so dainty and petit and such a sweetheart. Chester, well, we should have named him Trouble Maker, Rascal, or Stinker! He is into everything and anything! He eats socks, cords, butter, and anything he can fit into his mouth. They get along great. They love to play and tackle each other. Their 'meows' are so angelic. You can barely hear them, they are so tiny. They are about 4 months old now. Still a lot of growing and exploring to do. Sigh.....

I am sooooo jealous!! My sister just got a kitten, and now you! We have our older cat that we totally love, but I have wanted a kitten for a couple years now. But because we live here, my parents won't allow us to get one. So we must wait until we move out :( Enjoy those cuties!
