Mom has informed me that she got Ariel’s shot records, and she is (they think) 2 years old, born in spring 2011, but no one really knows for sure. She is 7.7 lbs, which means she is about what Tunch weighed when he was 8 months old, so she is a very slender and agile kitty.
I’ve got new bowls and a new litter box, and plan to spend tomorrow vacuuming the hell out of the spare bedroom so it is nice and clean for her arrival tomorrow night. I’m really quite excited. My friends always mock me for living in the middle of nowhere, and ask me if I am ever lonely, and I guess they just don’t understand how impossible it is to get lonely with all these personalities running around. No matter what room I am in, there is a set of eyeballs on me and someone who wants to be pet. How do you get lonely? Who has time? I’m shocked that I don’t have carpal tunnel from petting animals all day.
I went through all the names you suggested, and here are the frontrunners:
1.) Ariel (I’m a dance with the girl who brung you kind of guy, so if it fits when I meet her, it will be Ariel.
2.) Marlena (my current frontrunner)
3.) Sybil
4.) Abigail
5.) Natasha
Really leaning towards Marlena, which I think is perfect.
