Well, I went and got myself a little kitty. Well, he isn't that little. His name is Lucky and he is about 4 months old. One of my best friend's mother has a cat and it had kittens a while back. My friend called me and asked if I wanted to come over and look at them and take one home. I said no at first, but the more I thought about it the more I wanted one. I was mainly concerned about how much it would cost to get him fixed but her mom said she would pay to get him fixed and his first round of shots. What?? I can do that. I called her back and told her I would come look at them. I think they were only a week old when I saw them the first time. THEY WERE SO CUTE! How could someone just walk away from those precious little things. I picked one out and then had to then be patient while she scheduled him to get fixed. It finally happened last week. Boys are so much easier to take care of after they get fixed then girls. When I brought him home he was jumping up on the bed and running. I know that with girls the procedure is a little more invasive. He is all good. He is so loving and loves to be around people. Everywhere I go, he goes. He doesn't like me to be out of his sight, unless he is sleeping. I have to watch my step most of the time so I don't step on him. The only issue I have is that he is very messy when it comes to his litter box. This is a recent thing too. Over the weekend I noticed that the area around his litter box was covered in litter. I thought maybe it was just an accident but after I cleaned it up it was like that again the next morning. I guess I am just going to have to get used to this. We had 2 cats growing up and none of them were this messy. I can see a little bit flying out but not this much. I think he might be doing this on purpose. Yeah, probably not. All in all I love having him around. I feel bad that I have to leave him home alone all day, but I guess he can deal with it...got no choice. Guess what??? THANKSGIVING IS ALMOST HERE!!!! Can you tell I'm excited?? Only a couple more days of work left. I know they are going to be really long days, but they will go by and then it will be turkey day! I have a feeling everyone who reads this thinks I am nuts because I am so into Thanksgiving. I am really not that crazy, but if you think I am, I can live with it. :) Peace out!!
