Picture Time


Here's Barron making his "scary" Halloween face
Baron is so lovely, he is Dave's cat. When we went to the humane society to get Joely we were going to get another cat too but he was sick and didn't make it. Dave walked into the cat room and when he walked by Barron stuck his little paw out and grabbed dave so Dave said I want him.

Ever since we have had Baron he is IN LOVE with Dave he rubs all over his face, gives him kisses, and Follows him everywhere... Baron is a sweet cat and Dave's baby!!!!!!

This is Mendel. Look at that sweet face! Mendel (I got this name from the movie Price of rubies it was the name of the jewish husband and I just fell in love with that name ever since) {so Mendel is my little jewish baby} is the new addition to the family. When Leland (I miss you so much) past away I thought about getting a new kitten. I wanted a all white one like Leland but I called places and they kept telling me it wasn't kitty season. So I was kind of like inpatient and I found a place that was like in MILWAUKEE no not Wisconsin OREGON and it was about 40 minutes away. I got lost going there but that's another story for a later time. That's when I got MENDEL .. he is a monster too. He has adapted well. He is like the king of the house. He plays with all the cats and beats up on Maceo and follows Baron everywhere...

He is a black fur ball.


The new little kitty, Zane. He is so adorable!

Well next is Zane, He is so cute.. Look at that face. He is 9 weeks old and I think he has the cutest face ever! I got him at a pet store in downtown Vancouver.
I walked into this store and they had 7 kittens in a Aquarium. What the heck a aquarium poor babies. But I made the guy like pick up three kittens checking to see if they were male or not. The first two were female. I wanted a grey and white one, so there was only one left and I thought to myself please be a male......It was..so I said I will take him. When the guy gave him to me I noticed he had fleas and I was like UGH not fleas but I was okay with it. I paid my 40 dollars cash and off I was... I wasn't thinking about a name for him at that moment. I was just worried about getting him checked out at the Vet. So I drove to our vet. I told them to do a complete check up on him. So we decided to do the Feline leukemia test on him... They draw blood from the vein in the leg.. Awww poor little guy.. The test takes 10 mins to come back. So I waited in the lobby with the little guy and 10 mins go by and the Vet comes out and says POSITIVE!!!!!!!! I didn't know what to say or think... I don't want a new kitten that is sick.... I don't want my other cats to get sick.. I was really shocked.. So the vet said that we should go ahead and take another test and try a different kit. So poor little guy had to get blood taken again but in the other leg.. 10 mins goes by Vet comes back and says Negative.. I am thoroughly confused now.. I have no idea what to think.
The vet says that it could just be a fluke.... I have to keep the kitten separate from the other cats for 3 weeks and have him tested again.
So I came home and was really upset and I told dave and he said that he didn't want to get attached to him.
I decided to name him Zane I always liked that name..... Everytime I hear it though I think of Billy Zane (cutie) and Everytime I think of Billy Zane I think of Demon Knight he was really good in that movie..
So Zane is now home his room is the upstairs hall bathroom. He has his bed, toys, food bowls and his litter box . He cries all the time and he is so loud.. But I take him out as much as I can. The second day he was here I had to work on the yard pulling weeds. I wanted him to go outside with me to get out of that bathroom so I tried to make him a little caged area so he could play but it was quite windy and the walls kept falling down... Plus he was a climber and kept trying to escape. So I put Zane up on my shoulder and pulled weeds.... I guess my mom would probably be saying CRAZY cat lady right now but I don't think I am crazy I just love my pets :)
I keep telling Zane how many days are left till he gets tested again and he is able to play with the big kids (I'm HOPING).
Tonight Zane and I played in the office with Starr. Zane was actually get all frisky and attacking starr. It was really funny. Starr was really enjoying it, she was being really good too.. THINK KING KONG AND STUART LITTLE !!!!! HA I had a few laughs! Well I have been writing for a hour I think I've done the deed!
PEACE OUT!!!!!!
