New Kids on the Block
And Then There Were....Seven?!
The Kitty Krew proudly introduces the newest members (yes, plural) of our not-so-little family!
This is Gypsy, the kitty-formerly-known-as-Tamara; a 1-year old dilute calico female:
And this is a still-to-be-renamed kitty currently-named Thor; a 6-month old white/tabby mix male:
We're blaming Noir because he and his beanmom, Tommy, posted last week about a cute little Siamese girlcat that needed a new home. The Mommy called about her but the end result was that she's being adopted this weekend by someone who called earlier than The Mommy. The Mommy was happy she was getting a home and not overly disappointed to miss out, after all, she had 5 of us already, right?
And then late Wednesday, Brian posted about his new sister that they are adopting. And so it made The Mommy start thinking some more (always a dangerous thing!), and she got on the website of a local no-kill shelter and was looking at their kitties. Uh oh! She went up there after work on Thursday, and came home with Gypsy and "Thor". Like we needed two more rugrats around here.... Sheesh.
She needs some help with re-naming "Thor" though. We've got a naming 'thing', with all our names ending in 'y' or 'ie'; for the eldest of us (Bugsy, Sassy and Callie), it wasn't intentional. For Roxy, it kind of was; for Pixie it definitely was. Some possibilities for "Thor" include Ripley, Ozzy or Ziggy. The first syllable of the name should also be good for using as a nickname (Bugs, Sass, Cal, Rox, Pix, Gyp/Gyps (okay, that one doesn't work quite so well)). Anyone have any other suggestions?
We'll have more photos of the two new kids on the block in the coming days. Please join us in welcoming them!
PS - Happy Halloween to everyone! The Mommy never got around to doing any costumes for any of us for any of the costume contests (sheesh!), so we really didn't have much to contribute for the mystique of the day today anyway...we trust you'll forgive us for instead intro'ing our new family members to everyone.
