THE HAPPIEST DAY OF OUR LIVES!!!!!!



Yeah, our wedding was cool, too, but WE GOT THE CATS!!!!!!! In keeping with the prison theme, I'd hoped to post a picture of a chain gang and/or draft something that Morgan Freeman might narrate (not including vile ‘Bucket List’ phone-in). Oh well.

We were worried our boys toughened up in the big house. Tama is small and shifty-eyed. With a red handkerchief on his head and a shiv in his paw, he might be ok, but Blue would be someone’s bitch.

Thankfully both cats are fine and Blue has even lost a bit of weight. Blue wasn’t quite sure what to do when he saw us: he got a bit poofy, but was also purring. Tama developed a disturbing guttural meow (no doubt from some rough time in the hole) which disappeared, thankfully.

(Shelby: imagine Mo Sil’s meow suddenly coming out of Tucka!)

They adapted almost immediately to their new home, eagerly exploring every room (meowing every few seconds to make sure we were still there). We made a little hiding spot for them in the closet, and bought them a cheap blanket (featuring the cast of High School Musical!) but of course they ignored it and went right for the shelves in the hall closet.

It was a little awkward when our friendly neighborhood kitty came ‘round (he’s been visiting daily). I wanted to go outside and say hello, but felt badly because Blue & Tama can’t go outside yet. The cats all seem eager to meet each other, which was interesting! Although neighborhood kitty looks totally confused by Blue's overt gestures.

After an hour or two of checking out their new digs, the cats did what all cats do: went to bed and ignored us for the rest of the night.

Perfect!!!!!!

Awwwaaawwwwww! They look SO happy to be home. The neighborhood cat looks super friendly--he's excited to have some new friends that look like him! So...will you guys have 3 cats soon?!@#???

I sense from the pictures that both cats deeply resent your flirtations with other felines during their time in the kitty klank.

Don't rule out the possibility of retaliation.
