As many of you know I had to say good-bye last week to my 21 year old fur child, Flower. It's been a rough few days and I really miss her. My daughters have been moping around and showing me all kinds of pictures of adoptable fur babies. Well with minimal persuasion they were able to talk us into adopting a new baby. It didn't take much because to tell you the truth, despite the fact that there were still 2 cat fur children and 2 dog fur children in the house, it just felt that something was missing in our home after Flower died.

Well I wanted to introduce you to our new fur baby. Her name is Willow and she is an 8 week old rescue kitty. She's helped fill the hole that Flower left though I still miss Flower like crazy. She's already made friends with her dog sisters but her cat sisters are still not too sure about her but I know it will come with time.

Thank you all for your thoughts and words of comfort that you left for me and my family. They truly were appreciated.

I also thought I would include pictures of Willow's cat sisters. Selena is 3 and Maryel (black cat) is 13. DH picked Maryel up off the street one day. She was in the road right next to the curb. No idea how she ever got there. I'm thinking someone threw her there. She was flea infested, had worms, literally fit into the palm of my hand and weighed only 0.8 pounds, 2 weeks after we found her. I'm sure she was less than that when DH picked her up off the street. The vet thought that she was about 4 weeks old. She's my miracle baby.
