A New Arrival...
Today Dorothy, Owen and I brought home a new cat to join our family. Here she is hiding under Dorothy's bed... probably in shock from moving to yet another location, with lots of people and other animals. Houdini has sniffed her and is now curled up in the box that she arrived in. Poor Suki just wants her to feel welcome and keeps trying to play tag with her, so we have to keep her in a separate room for now.
Dorothy has been wanting to adopt a kitten from one of the local shelters for a while. This one is about one year old, just barely a kitten really, but she is soooo pretty! Her eyes are closed here, but she has really neat eyes...kind of amber. And she has a beautiful puffy tail which you can't see. She also has a nasty injury to one of her ears, possibly from frost bite - she was a stray. She has been spayed, has all of her shots and is microchipped. The shelter named her "Paisley" but Dorothy is trying to think of a better name. Any Ideas???
