Does anyone remember when we kind of had chickens last year? Well anyhow in case you don’t remember, the neighbors who live right behind us used to have chickens and they’d fly over the fence and hang out in our backyard all the time. It was kind of cute and kind of a pain in the butt. Well, the chickens have long since gone (I really don’t want to know what happened to them), and the neighbor’s have kitties now! Much less obnoxious to us, but much more irritating to Jojo because they like to romp all over the porch roof and make noise.

So a few weeks ago Eric found one of their kitties trapped in the storage shed and he rescued it. Ever since then it’s become our best friend, when the dogs are safely in the house. We call her Girl Kitty and she likes to come out at night for lovins and snuggles. Every night I make her a little blanket nest on her favorite lawn chair and she snuggles down for mimis (sleep). She’s super cute. She has white paws and bright yellow eyes! She has a brother kitty who’s not quite so friendly, but every so often he comes out for pets. This morning he came to say hello to Eric and we got this great photo:

Aww- he’s got a look that says, “I desire snuggles”, huh? Girl Kitty is much more girly looking, but since she mostly comes out at night we don’t have any photos of her yet. Although yesterday afternoon we had her romping around chasing a piece of rope, which she then attacked and dragged off behind the house to destroy. It was SO cute. I’m sure I’ll be on the make for photos of Girl Kitty now!

Happy Wednesday!!
