Not One . . . but Two!

What a fun early birthday present for my grandson, CD. He'll turn 10 on the 16th of this month. A friend of the family heard the news of Simply Country's 14-year-old cat dying over the holidays and let Jen know that they had five four-month-old kitties for which she was trying find good homes. As it turns out she sent Jen a picture of two of them from her cell phone (I'm still amazed on technology these days) and Jen just "couldn't separate them . . . can we have both?" Hence, yesterday CD was quite surprised when he went to Mountain Home School to be greeted by his two new kitties. After coming up with several names such as "Tank"... "Ally"... "Sunflower" ... "Tulip" ... "Baby Face" ... "Clutches" ... he has decided to named them "Sunshine" and "Ariella."

Sunshine on the left . . . Ariella on the right
Surprised and very happy boy!
Arielle is less shy than Sunshine. Here she came out to play and meet Murray, the yellow lab.
Murray was so sweet, you can't see it but his tail was wagging 50 mph in anticipation of the playful times to come. He really misses the black kitty, Amy, and now he'll have two buddies to share his domain!
Playing with Karah.
Life is good!

Sweet! Darling! Soft and cuddly! Cute and fun!! Especially with two it will be even more fun to watch them play, wrestle and chase each other. Must have been how our Tino once looked. Lucky family!!

Aw, that picture of CD with that wonderful smile on his face just melts my heart. Those kittens are beautiful and remind me SO much of my one true-love cat that I had named Cheddar.
Please tell Jen I think she did a great job on the present selection!! :-)
