It's a Girl!


Although we are still mourning the loss of our kitty, Kali, we decided we needed to add a new 4-legged member to our family. No disrespect for Kali, but our house just didn't feel like home without a kitty. We made a couple trips to the Humane Society. Last Thursday night we ventured over to the Buffalo location. I had been monitoring the web site and it seemed that the Buffalo location while a bit of a drive, had a larger selection of kittens. We arrived there and I went over to a cage with three kittens, 2 orange and white boys and a grey and white girl. The little girl immediately scaled the cage to see me -- almost as if to say, "here I am." We took her into a visiting room and within minutes the four of us were smitten and we said we needed to take her home. This little kitty purred her little heart out and visited every one us as if she were picking us. Sophie as we FINALLY named her has already worked her way into all our hearts. She is playful but cuddly and sweet. A wonderful new addition! She is slowly venturing out into her new home but much to my delight immensely enjoys sleeping with Bill and I at night. Who would think a little 4-pound fluff ball could be so therapeutic!
