Ten days ago the McKibbin family adopted two kittens from the Cat House. It was a surprisingly extensive process to adopt these two, more reminiscent of a match.com experience than I expected. McKibbin indicates this is customary. Each kitten came with a three page application, family interview, microchip implant, and a diligent, friendly, cat-loving case worker.Pictured above is Ms. Maggie. Her brother, Miles, bats at the wrist strap of my camera every time I try to take his picture. Photo sessions are more of a game than anything else. I have yet to get a good mug shot of him but I have fun trying.
They're both delightful and mischievous, so, they fit right in. I guess the match.com approach really works.

Quote of My Day: "Mommy, soon the kittens won't be little anymore. They won't want to play with us because they'll have big cat things going on."
