Say Hello To Ezzie & Graby!

Our two boys have wanted a kitten for a long time. However, up until now I knew we just didn't have time for a new pet plus we had been renting for the past few years, and we never let the boys have a cat while we were renters. Except for this one time, and that crazy cat ran away shortly thereafter.

Now that we are homeowners we can have and do whatever we want so with that in mind we took the boys to the local animal shelter this past Monday to pick out a cat. Picking out a cat is hard work. We were there for over an hour, and seriously you can't go in a shelter without wanting to take every animal home with you. Eventually we came out with 2 kittens. One boy and one girl. Now we have 2 cats in the house, 4 fish, and 1 dog outside.

I think the boys are plotting to create a farm slowly but surely.


Take a look at our newest occupants. They are the cutest little creatures.

How many pets do you have, and how long do you think it will be before there are cows & chickens in my yard?

Adorable. We currently have two dogs. Although one of them is roughly the size of a pony...so does that count as a horse?

We just got a new kitty, too. You know they say, "New House-New Baby"...LOL. Our kitty came with ours. He was under it...We named him LUCKY. I have never owned a cat in my life and until...oh, I don't know, 2 days ago I never had plans to ever do so...LOL. (BTW,a little box of "baby kitty" milk from the vet cost more than a gallon of ours...LOL.) Also, after it snuggled with me...I was hooked on keeping him.

We have three fish and 25 cats (outside, mostly in the barn). And as of today, a puppy. We are crazy people.

Your kitties are cute!
