Cats=Sucker!!

You may be wondering about my title, but after I explain and if you know about my last cat, then you will understand! When we first moved here in March, a little pure white kitty showed up.  I did not quickly set up a residence for her, but just left out some water.  She came and went for the first few weeks, and I assumed she had a home and I think she did, but then she started staying and was obviously hungry so I would feed her.  Then it became apparent why she was hanging around more-she was pregnant- and may of been kicked out of her previous home. 

Can I make a quick spill?? Spay your pets!!

After this we gave her a name and figured we would take care of her!!  She really is a sweet kitty and was even named, by none other than my husband!  She is named Tina after the llama in Napoleon Dynamite (I see this as a sweet gesture-not the fat lard, come get your food gesture).

This is actually the night she had her babies, and I got permission to put this picture out! It was too cute not to take it!

Before Tina had her babies I called the vet and talked to other cat lovers, because I was really nervous about her having her babies and not knowing what to do.  I was assured that 99% of the time, cats do fine, because unlike dogs who come in all sizes, cats are pretty much one size! Well, I have decided that I am not listening to stats like that anymore, that is what they said about my last cat too!!

Anyway, Tina had a hard time and ended up having to have a, C-SECTION!!  Are you kidding me!! But in the end we ended up with two adorable little kittens (we lost one) named Pipp and Squeak (again Matthew's doing)!


Pipp

Squeak (appropriately named)
They are so cute and the kids have loved having them and taking care of them!

So, it maybe thought that I am crazy (and maybe I am a little), but I like to think, mostly, that I am just a sucker for animals that need my help!
