New Kitten Fun!!!

One of Seamus's favorite toys

Forget what I said yesterday about getting the kitten after Oireachtas. We got him last night! We had such a fun time watching him explore his new surroundings. His routine is: eat. go to the bathroom. play. clean self. sleep. He slept all night. No meowing. When Sally first saw him, she hissed about four times, and growled loudly, so I took her away. Now she's more scared of him than angry. If she sees him, she'll run away! Now why would a three year old cat be scared of such a tiny little baby?
We're taking him to the vet this afternoon. He's very playful and sweet! I think he's going to go back to his old home and stay during our trip to Columbus- Sally will be ok here on her own. It was suggested that she went with Seamus, but no, she would definately run away. She does not like new people. And she's just shy of her new brother. I remind her how nice Sandy was to her when she came! All Sandy did was sit and look at her wide eyed for a while. But I think she'll make friends soon. She's just freaked out by the smell. "That's not Sandy!"
I liked all those other kittens too...(especially Vincenzo and Gordy, though I never met little G.) but I love Seamus the most! He has the most personality of all of them! He's such a cute little guy.

We've found one!!!!


Yesterday, Isabel & Miranda performed at a benefit concert some friends were having. (Sese and I were at dance so we couldn't go.) One of the other families that were performing just had some kittens, they're keeping one but were giving a kitten for a donation they would give to the Nursing Home this whole thing was for. We found our kitten in this litter! He was cuddly and friendly and licked Izzy on the face. She is holding him in the picture above and the blond girl is holding him in the first picture. The other kitten's his sister. He will be named 'Seamus.' Sally and Seamus. We'll be getting him in a few weeks when we come back from the Oireachtas. (We don't want to leave a kitten practically alone for a very long time when it's still new to its surroundings. We did that with Sandy once and she got mad and made a mess all over.)
We may still get another cat...but we're not sure. Thanks for all the comments so far on the last post! It seems Baker's a favorite. What do you think of this one?? ;)

Kitten-Hunting

You all have probably all heard the sad news about Sandy. :( But we've had a lot of fun kitten hunting this past week!
This Saturday, Mom, Sese and I went to the Animal Shelter in New Market- also a feed store. There were cats waiting to be adopted EVERYWHERE. And they all wanted attention! The one we came to see was Vincenzo. He's a baby boy kitten. He was friendly, cuddly, and playful! He actually came running to us when we came up to him. We would have taken him home right then but there was another family who was interested in him as well-and they were first in line!! He can't come for 3 weeks anyway since he has to be neutered but wish us luck on that one! He's our favorite favorite.

Later that day all of us went to see the family above. We especially wanted Sam...all of them were so adorable! But they were so busy! When they were awake, they were running around and playing...and we need a cuddle cat. Also, Sammy had a little cold and we don't want a sick cat either.

We just found Gordy and Pumpkin on the Pet finder website today. I hope we can visit them soon! We'd get both of them if we liked their personality.
Baker's adorable too, isn't he? Please leave a comment! Tell us which is your favorite kitten!!
