Our new baby,

Meet Freddy! He is our new baby! We went to Safe Haven Humane Society and picked him up. Here's the story.

Chris and I have had a mouse coming in our house on a regular basis. Every night. He licks the peanut butter off the traps and doesn't set them off. Chris and I are fed up with our visitor.

So, Friday morning I was at work and got a text from Chris saying "looks like we're going to have to get a cat, it has to be orange striped or yellow." Shocked, I called Christopher and got the verbal version of this. He wants a mouse hunter...I've been asking since I met him if we could get a cat!

So we went a found him Friday afternoon! They said he was 8 weeksm but he's a bit bigger, so we'll see what the vet says when we go next weekend. The local vets do a free wellness check and we're going to get a couple extra vaccinations so that he's extra healthy!

This is a little backwards...isn't Lilly supposed to be in her crate?




When we took Freddy out of the carrier, Lilly wanted to play, Freddy hissed. It took a couple hours they were liking each other, they're getting along much better! I can't even think of the last purchase we made that I was this happy with =). I like to think that Chris and I give both Lilly and Freddy the best lives possible!!

You've been warned...there will be lots of kitty/puppy pictures!
