A new arrival....

Abby the cat joined us today, Sunday, after much deliberation about the stupidity of getting a cat.
She has been so cute to watch, and she is so cute with the kids, very gentle and loving, yet very playful.
She taught this paper a lesson! It had the nerve to wave in the air when she was walking by! As I'm writing this, she came in and mewed to get up on my lap, so I let her and now she's alseep on my lap while I type. She is so cute!
Very playful too! It is actually pretty funny how we came to get a black cat. usually very allergic to black cats, like, can't breathe, eyes red, itchy, watery for days after contact with black cats. But I have no problem with orange cats, since we lived with Willy the cat in Bellingham. Well, we started to look for a cat that was orange, and the first one we looked at, was a freak! He wouldn't even come out to see us and scratched me so bad, I think I have an infection! Plus the house he came from was dirty and gross, so we didn't want that cat, which was a shame, since we drove and hour and fourty five minutes to see it, and the same home. Then the kids were at my parents, and my dad realized the neighbors had kittens they were giving away for free. So they went to look, they had no orange cats. I went by later to take a look, not thinking I would get one, but she pointed out a little tiny black girl kitty that didn't have a home yet and I fell in love! I held her, and rubbed her fur by my face to see what would happen, and nothing did! So, we went back today and got her. She has already been a nice addition to the family!
