Kitten!

A friend sent up a plea on Facebook a few weeks ago. In the middle of a heavy rainstorm, a stray kitten was running in and out of traffic. Being a kind animal loving soul, she scooped it up, saving its life and needed someone to adopt the kitten because her house was full of animals already. Mike and I said sure, we haven’t had a kitten in forever so we added this little girl to our house of four cats. Mike named her Bonnie Bee in honor of his mother who passed in March. She is just as cute in real life as these pictures depict. Purrrrrrrrrrr…………

Valentine’s Day

The last time I checked in here, Thanksgiving and Christmas were upon us. Then I woke up Thanksgiving with a nasty head cold than merged with allergies and I spent the next month plus mostly in bed and sick, sick, sick.

So now it’s almost Valentine’s Day. I managed to make some special edition catnip snake cat toys so that your cats don’t feel left out come February 14.
