katinka

TODAY.... i adopted two little kitties. i'm SO excited. they're lovely. i felt "one is for me, two are for each other". i'm not home A LOT, and it didn't seem fair to get a little kitty and leave him home all the time by himself. i think it was hard on fru, and i always regretted separating him from his brother.

these are my kitties. they're brother and sister.
the girl's name is honey, and the boy's name is pekoe.

the picture on the top is pekoe. he's a silver tabby and is slightly cross-eyed. it's adorable.

the picture on the bottom is honey. she's a brown tabby and is wheezing a little bit because she's getting over a cold.

i'm gonna have to get them fixed asap because they're siblings, and i don't want any funny business going on.

i'm really enjoying them. i drove all the way to belleville to get them. it was a nice little roadtrip, i went all by myself. i like that i just got in the car and drove – that i can do that. being an adult is really great.

i got my heart monitor off yesterday. i'm so glad, i'm allergic to the tape and my skin is all red and itchy. having this electronic device stuck on my body was a funny experience, i liked to imagine that i was undercover and was bugged.

ah, the weather is SO beautiful out. i always say i love summer, but i love spring too, and i also like fall. i drove with the window down and basked in the sunshine.

it's a hard parade,
just be courageous.

Congrats on the kittens! I'm glad they're warming your heart. My dad has a bird named Pekoe!

Now that the heart monitor's off, I hope you have a clean bill of health.

aw!!!! so great! i'm happy that you have kitties now. pekoe and honey. i hope they aren't all growed up by the summer! :D

yelsel said...

:D

i'm ridiculously happy. i'm charmed by them ;)

let's see... by summer.... they'll sort of be teenagers, they'll be about 7 months. so they'll still be pretty kitty like, maybe just in personality, but we'll see. WOO-HOO!

i think it is only natural that kitties make you gleeful. i too get a little bubble of glee about my furry friends. (what's the deal with my hallmark sentences??!)

i can't believe i actually considered giving them up...

My dad's birds are Earl and Pekoe. They came by their names because of tea and their colours. Earl is a grey cockatiel (earl grey) and Pekoe is an orange canary (orange pekoe).
