Every child needs a pet. Right?


Last week we welcomed Patches into our family. The person who we got her from said she is 8 weeks old. She currently ways 1lb 7ozs and is full of energy. Now that she has proven herself to use the litter box, she is free to roam the house.

Getting a kitten is something I've wanted to do for a long time. Previous living situations would not support the idea of getting a cat. However, now I'm the only one with a vote, and I voted "yes". I was a little unsure of how Kate would respond, but she LOVES Patches.

The day we got the kitten Kate seemed a little freaked out. After watching from afar, she is now in full play mode. She shares her toys with Patches, chases her, "hugs" aka squeezes her, etc. Best of all, this morning, she put Patches in a headlock. Now that's true love ;)

I can't wait to watch them grow up together!
