On Saturday my sister and mom brought over our new kitty.  She is a stray and my sister and mom were kind enough to get her house ready…shots, spaying and declawing.  She might be around one, and she is certainly a young cat.  She seems to be a very nice cat and right now is just trying to get her bearings on the place.  She doesn’t voluntarily come up and lay on you, but if you pick her up and pet her she will sit there and purr.

She gave us a scare that she snuck out the door on Saturday.  We thought Kailan may have opened up the garage door and let her out.  Everytime we asked him we received a different answer so we weren’t quite sure if that was where she had gone.  Brian finally found her in the last place we looked.  Of course.  She had found quite the hidey hole to take a nap. Little bugger. 😉

Kailan seems very excited to have a kitty, and will pet her occassionally which is usually a quick pat on the back.  At least he isn’t pulling her tail.  She seems pretty good about it when he sticks his face in her face and yells, “KITTY!”.

Anya goes in waves as to whether she is excited and worried about the kitty.  In both of those times, she does not want to cat to touch her though.  If the cat does touch her she says, “OWIE!”  She will get used to kitty eventually.

We have decided to name her a very creative name…Kitty.  Since that is what the kids will call her, she might as well know that is her name.  It works!
