Decision 08

I am an animal lover. I was the girl in school everyone thought would end up on a farm just to hold all the animals I would take in. I've had the best dog in the world and the best cat. When my dog, Coco, died my junior year of high school, I was done with dogs. I mean why get another one if you've already had the best? When my cat, Munch, got a kidney disease we had to put her to sleep when her kidneys shut down a month before my oldest daughter was born. This was the hardest thing I have EVER had to do. So much so I have had no desire for another pet. Still don't, but the pressure is on.

We've had a cat take up with us and she is a mommy with young ones. We've tried to follow her to find the kittens, but to no avail. She's sneaky. The girls are in love with her. They are so gentle and sweet, it has even convinced my not-so-cat-friendly and often-allergic-to-cats husband to give it a try. Today, Jamie came home and told me our mystery cat has owners. A Hispanic family that lives next door. Relief! No more pressure to take in a cat.

We took a walk up to their house to see the kittens. They are so sweet!!! 3 grey and black tabby and 1 solid black. The owners said "You want? One month ready, ok???" Which is exactly when Bella's birthday is...hmmm...but Em needs one too right?...hmmm...decisions decisions.
