We are adopting a new kitty!!!

YAY!!!!

This little one came up to me in the driveway about three weeks ago. I saw her in the front yard, she blended in with the fall leaves, she is a little tortise kitty. I rattled the mail slot on the front door and she came running up to me, and almost came right in the house!!

It was love at first purr. But we already have the Good Queen Muff, and so we decided we couldn't take on another, and we thought she belonged to the people down the street. So we shooed her away.

Well, this morning I was leaving for work, and my neighbor from down the street was going into her dad's house which is next door. We chatted a bit, and then she said that she wanted to show me what she has hidden away in the vacant house (her dad has moved up north with his other daughter).

There was little stripey kitty!!!! (this is what DH and I have called her since we saw her the first time)

She has been feeding it and keeping it in the house until she found a home for it. She has 2 massive dogs and 3 cats, so she couldn't take another.

I went home to tell DH, and at first he said no, but then I guess I looked a bit sad, so he said - ok, this is your Christmas present! Go tell her we will take the little stripey kitty!

So we will make all the vet appointments for both the Muffin Cat and new kitty so we can finally bring her home!!!YAY!!!!!!!

Here are some photos:

They are a bit dark because I didn't want to use a flash on her, and the lighting is not great in that house.

Just a drive by update!!!

Vroooom!!!

Filed Simon's immigration paperwork today!! YAY! It only took us 2.5 months!!

Now we wait for him to receive an adjustment to his residency status, document to travel outside the country, and most importantly permission to FINALLY work for pay!!! It will be so nice to finally be a two income household!

Then about three years till he gets is green card. Which is now white apparently. Go figure.

Hope everyone is well and happy!
Love to all,
