For the last month or so I have been contemplating getting another animal. While I love love love dogs, I have to admit that I'm not responsible enough. I just can't make the final commitment there.
So, I dropped the subject for a while, and then...
Last week I went ot lunch with a vendor contact, and at the end she looked at me and asked if I was an animal lover. The next thing you know she is showing me pictures of a little tabby kitty she rescued that is 8 weeks old, and I melted.
I really don't need another cat.
My current cat is very used to and happy with her situation.
I haven't had to deal with a kitten in years and years.
But, of course I said yes. I'm picking up the little bugger on Wednesday. I stayed up late last night researching on the internet kitten care and how to introduce a kitten to an older cat.
I'm seriously crossing my fingers my Penny doesn't take out the new addition to the family. We are going to baby step it and put the kitten in another room and gradually bring her out.
I want to give the baby kitty a good home, and the girl who rescued it said if it doesn't work out, she will always take it back. So, I do have a backup plan.
Who knows, Penny might have some deeply hidden mothering needs or something. (I seriously highly doubt this, but one can dream.)

I love kitties!! There will be an adjustment period and then all should be swell. Good luck and congratulations!
Yeah, I think you are seriously dreamin' on that one... Although Oz and Meeks are going better, so I guess anything's possible.
So, how's it going with the new kitty?
