He scurried into our lives (aka... into our apartment) a couple of days ago. He has frequented our home enough times that we have gifted him with a plate of milk as an offering of friendship. We hope he chooses to live with us, instead of next door with the four year old girl who actually sounds and acts much like a cat herself. She wants to name the cat Snowball. That's lame. And it's predictable. Scott thinks the cat will have an identity crisis.
Fact is... we don't know where he came from. But he's here. The first time he came over, he walked right in, and we couldn't really do anything about it. Now he waits outside our door and greets us when we come home from work! The greatest part is that Scotty and I now have a kitty (it's a kitten, not a cat... when it's a cat... I'll hate it), but the woman (mother o' catkid) has purchased all the essentials. Litterbox (in HER kitchen). Cat food (we simply part with a smidge of milk). And the cat sleeps at her home (because Scott said he drew the line at the strange, wandering cat sitting/sleeping/walking/licking itself on or anywhere near our bed.... I guess I can understand that. But we have a neighborhood cat!!!! Wahoo! Oh, I wasn't savy enough with the camera to catch our kitty sipping with glee from the milk dish, but he goes right to the spot where it usually sits. Yay for Taco!
I forgot to mention that Scott looks like a little Elf.
And to Margy and Oliver, who just decided to up and fly to Bermuda... LAME! We need to coordinate with these trips... go together.... and pick a place that works for all of us. You guys could have spent Spring break with us in Vernal. Except they closed the dinosaur stuff... so Vernal may have lost its appeal. We could have gone to BAKERSFIELD! Just kidding. How fun! You guys deserve a good trip! I hope you have a wonderful trip! Can't wait to hear all about it... send us pictures!
Fun cat! And Scott does look like an elf. Yes, we should coordinate trips (sorry, this was last minute!). It was so beautiful!!
