New Addition.....
« on: September 28, 2011, 03:02:20 pm »
We were passing the pet adoption agency this morning qnd it called out to us!

Now have a new kitten...
4 mos. old spayed female cutie (no name yet) extremely affectionate and very alert.
Obvious that she was not at all mistreated and curious as a kitten is supposed to be.

I think I have a new 'lap warmer' in the making.

How about Splinter?  They do both get under your skin!

My sisterinlaw had a pair of goats named Briggs & Stratton, and a huge German Shepherd named Alcatraz (nobody gets away from Alcatraz).

How about naming her after a type of wood like, Aspen, Holly, Sapele. I'm sure there are many more too

You might want to rethink that name, GB. After all what impression will people get when you exclaim, " I have a Splinter in my lap."
 :D ;D
BTW: congratulation on the new family member.

She purrs louder than my grandpa's ol' 5 horse Johnson outboard!
Happy, curious and loves to snuggle.

Have to name you Honorary Grampa since you gave us the name!
