I never thought I’d see the day where I would be a cat owner. Yes, we went to the Humane Society on Sat, “just to look”, and mainly at dogs. But then the kids got to looking at the cats, and were instantly in love! Before we left Downey, there was a baby stray cat that we took in for a few weeks in the end there. Victoria loved it. Also, Dillon is allergic to cats, so we let him play with the one we were interested in to see if he had any allergic reaction. We told the kids we would go home talk it over and make a decision the next day. We pretty much talked through everything and the kids’ responsibilities and everyone was in agreement (for now), so we went for it. He’s a tuxedo looking, black and white cat. He’s not quite a year old and is very good with kids. We tested that out really well when Victoria held it every which way and it didn’t mind. So, here we are…done w/ the baby thing and onto pets! I’m very nervous and have NEVER liked cats. And to think, I’m stuck here at home all day, by myself, with this feline…egads! He is a sweet cat and everyone else is already in love with him. There was a fight, and maybe still is on what to name him. Victoria wants to name him Licorice. Dillon wants to name him Niger…LOL. Yes, he’s David’s child indeed! So, as of last night, each was calling him their own name for him…poor cat!
Anyway…pray for me!!!
