A few days ago, a friend of ours put out the word that he had a stray kitten that needed a permanent home. The poor thing had been found up a tree, and he and his family had tried for several days asking around their smallish town to see if anyone could claim it. They had no luck, so he started looking for a place the little furball could call home.
Being a soft touch, I headed on down there. The kitten is a Siamese, a breed I’ve always liked, is very affectionate, and is already litter trained.
Meet Crash*:
He’s quite vocal, and talked to me through the airholes in the cat carrier all the way home. He’s been thoroughly checked out by Moonshine and Bluegrass, and they seem to be OK with him. Not sure how the kitten liked the two big sniffing things, but they’ll work it out. Koshka gave him a quick sniff, but after a hiss, sulked her way down to the basement for the night. Annya hasn’t met him yet, but I expect it will take her quite a while to accept him.
So there we are. Yet another mammal in our home.
*Yes, we named him after the big event this week. It seemed fitting.

There’s a moratorium on new mammals entering my house right now, but darned if I don’t wish we had a kitten livening things up.
Koa would herniate herself, she’d be so mad.

I just now am catching up; sorry to hear about the big event and glad to hear you’re both well as can be.
Hope Koshka comes round soon.
Has he decided which person is his?
