Meet my pride and joy, my wi'l princess! She is just as cute and adorable as can be, and I love her to pieces. She's a pouffy li'l ewok-look-alike, she's all black w/blue eyes that might be changing sometimes ooon, and she's methinks about eight weeks old. (Did I mention I love her to death?) I got her from an ad put out in the Winchester star, and although I wasn't sure of things during the brief second I met her before I could actually go pick her up, after a day or so's worth of settling in, I know her for the sweetheart she is, and she's just a wonderful wee cuddlemuffin!! (Even if she does pretend to play fight w/you while she's trying to get her play on. She'll roll on her back, hug your hand w/her paws- claws not out, and mouth your fingers gently. The second she get s'eepy she's all over you like white on rice, and purring like maaaaad. I love her so!!!) *glee*
Wanna see her irresistable visage? (Despite my crummy-dummy camera on my felly-tone:)
And lastly w/her two foster sissies, one black w/a white star on her throat, the other w/a white starburst on her chest and a round spot above her booty: "Luna/Spot" and "Una/Wikka."
Well, whaddya think? Too precious, aren't they?? *beams* (Dat's my girl, w/her face toward the camera and all cuddled up w/her sissie on the arm of the sofa.) If you want, I'll put more of the sisters up soon. :)
Plus I -might- have one more! I'm currently babysitting two kitties Greg and I picked up last week, (the 20th) at his ex-nextdoor neighbor's. They stayed w/him for a week and now they're visiting my place, and these two are sweties too. They're -just- now six weeks old, and depending on Greg's druthers, I might be keeping one of them as well. They're darling too, and although I'd be just as happy just to keep my one wee schmoomuffin I got this Sunday, it'd be just as good to keep one of these wee ones also.. to keep my boo-bear company- (and I admit it, me too! :D) Plus I've been spending time w/them the past week and a half and have come to adore them, too- so how could that be wrong?? ^_^
With all the shit that's happening w/Kevin, and all the nice stuff our landlord has done for us, Will's really adament that we not break our lease by having unregistered pets, but since as of right now (for the most part) I'm just cat-sitting, I'm not gonna sweat it tooooooooooo much. Yes, I want to find the $300 we'll need to pay our refundable pet deposit, but I'm not gonna uberly sweat it just quiiite yet. Why? Here's why: A; we're not gonna have 3 cats in a week's time. B; Kevin's no longer a problem since he came and picked up his shit DURING GAME last week (and at the end of the emonth, conveniently, ta boot). And c; 'cause I know lots of people who have had pets for litterally YEARS in apartments who never reported them and never had a single problem, doubt or issue. I still wanna get the $$ up 'cause I don't wanna break the lease or screw w/our already super-nice landlord, but w/all the shite that's going on right now, (thank you, Kevin!) I just can't afford it.
Yes, I know I could have theoretically "gotten another pet at a more appropriate time," but I've been looking for a black kitten since I was at Will's and beyond, and these opportunities presented themselves -now,- and -worked well.- Kittens needed homes and I needed kittens. I've been lonely and deeply depressed, and these guys have helped me remarkably. Plus theneeded to find good, loving homes, and I could provide one, and happily. I'm not gonna turn that away. Better yet these sweethearts are the antithesis of Smudgie the Satan-Spawn.. despite two of them being 1/4 Siamese. Plus their mom is the daughter of a litter whom I adored, and who I wanted for myself as a matter of fact. She was a black kitty w/white feet whom I called "Blackfoot" to be ironic and to remember my heritage. The other's puffier than the first two, w/unknown lineage- but we can all tell there ain't no Siamese in dat one.. phew!! Moreover they were free, we got to pick them out and choose them, which is a HUGE bonus, and we got to see their personalities BEFORE we adopted them. How many pet adoptions can you say that for nowadays? Trust me, I researched and applied to rescue orgs and went through allllllllll the motions. Even the rescue places wanted tons of money for their pets (though I understand why), plus it's awful picking pets out of just a dad-blamed photograph. Every animal can be cute. Not every animal can be gauged for personality from a photo meant to find the pet a good home. It's like judging people on looks. Yes, it might be cute, (like Smudge) but it might also hate me, just be Evil, or have other major issues, (like Smudge).
So now I ask, what should I name 'em? If I keep just the one I was thinking of a few names: Whisper, Skye, Inka, Cloud, Jewel and Princess. If I keep one of the other, younger kitties, I was thinking one could be called Wikka and mine Vudu, or the other Luna and my wee one Nula. (It's an Irish name meaning "dark," although I'm not sure I've got the spelling right.) Together they've made just the cutest pictures; a nose-to-tail kitty triantle while they slept, kitty cuddle puttles, and of course, when they're playing or just snuggling w/their mamma. *beams* (I am SUCH a proud mother!!! >^_^<) I wanna take pics of them constantly, and always find myself wishing others were here to see their unbelievable cuteness. They're so young and so sweet.. they of course are still learning and make some mistakes, but they're so wee and yet so smart, I have no doubt they'll learn all they have to and be the smartest li'l buggers around. :) Will begrudgingly adores them, and although I know he's a little resentful 'cause he's not sure about pet stm, I know he's gonna adore these kits too- almost as much as I do- while he pretends to grouse about 'em, razz 'em and gently give 'em trouble (while cuddling and schmooing them every chance he gets!) :D I mean, how can you resist the undeniable cuteness?? *glee*
Anywho, that's all I've got ftm.. I have to crash soon- but I hope you like the pic of my new li'l wee one, and maybe you'll have a name for her to help me out. :) As for now, I've got the Three Fates in kitten form sleeping softly downstairs.
:D Yay balls of fluff!!! ^_^
