This weekend we adopted kittens.
Meet Lucy and Ethel.
Aren’t they just adorable?
We went to Petsmart this Saturday during adoption time. After $100 donation to the shelter and $120+ in necessities (litter, litter box, food, food dish, collars, kennel, etc.) we are proud new fur parents.
Lucy is our crazy lady. She is not shy and just loves to play. She is most often the instigator of the play cat fights. She is also a groomer. When you pet her expect to be lovingly licked in return.

Ethel is the more reserved half of the pair. She follows while Lucy leads. She also seems to crave more attention and gets lonely. You can tell when this is going on because that is when the most sad, pathetic yowling you’ve ever heard starts.
Ethel
On Saturday, after introducing the girls to their litter box, food and water, we decided to leave them along and give them full run of the downstairs while we were upstairs. We heard little foot steps darting all across the living room while they’re bells jingle jangled. After a bit I realized the noise had stopped. It made me nervous so I went to check things out. I went down stairs and couldn’t find the kittens. So then I called Bryce and made him join the hunt. Approximately 20 minutes later he starts laughing and calls me over to the recycling bin. The little buggers have burrowed down to the bottom of the recycling and that is where they are hiding.

But they are ladies after my own heart. Guess where they went to play next?

They’re sweet little kittens. They play together all evening/morning long and snooze the afternoon away. Bryce and I are glad we opened our home.
Even if they like to run across our unsealed, chalk-like fireplace before starting a cat chase across the living room…
