Today was the day. The local kittens are six weeks old, and I was finally invited to interview them.
As I had hoped, one chose me. He left the pile of kittens in the basket, ran up my leg and sat on my shoulder, when I said, "OK! Who wants to win the lottery? I have an opening for a CAT!" He will remain with his mother for a couple of weeks more, yet, then right to the Vet, and home.  Names, names. Because he is a Tuxedo Cat, I wanted to name him "Linux", as in  , but this was vetoed by my niece, who said, "If you name him after some Geek Operating System, I'll never talk to you again!".OK.His father is a HUGE cat, so maybe: Dreadnaught? Catapotamus? Magnus? A friend suggested "Hiram". I made a wisecrack about him teaching the cat a certain Handshake, and we left it at that. This requires more thought. I am grateful for the two weeks. Because for the last few decades I have always rescued "Used Cats", I had not seen kittens for a long time. I must have laughed nonstop for fiteen minutes! I needed it, because of course there will always be an empty place from Miles. A whole basket full of clowns who have had WAY too much coffee! This is his proud godmother, the Employee of the Mother Cat..(Who will be spayed thereafter! A limited time litter offer!!)

(LOL like I really need to tell you to do that!)Looking forward to all the pics and stories I know you will bring. I felt it was appropriate to start a new thread, because this one was betraying my overboard enthusiasm, and I feared it would become triesome for people, because there was really no News... There is now. The little Tuxedo Fluffball curled up with his favorite toy, and snoozes till I visit. He has been handled a Lot! He purrs and purrs and wants his plump belly rubbed..I am TRYING to stay out of his room, and let him sleep before the Vet Trip. I have not had a kitten in decades. Someone who loves old used cats has NO DEFENSE against this Cuteness Overload!!! -------------------- Miles, my friend and Cat-Wife. 3-11-2008
