After 12 years of wanting a second kitty, we went to the animal shelter and picked out a kitten today.
We looked at lots of kitties. Friendly ones, loud ones, quiet ones, needy ones. I wanted to adopt them all. I would have liked to adopt some of the adult kitties, but with a 12 yo cat at home it seemed best to get her something she could dominate.
After much thought, I decided I wanted a boy kitty because they seem to be more cuddly and I want a cuddly kitty.
So we found the prettiest cream tabby kitty I've seen in a long time. He's about 10-14 weeks old and playful and cuddly.
The boys named him Ron Weasley (after wanting to name him OJ which made Mr. Gaia and I cringe).
He's currently confined in the boys' bedroom with a food bowl and a water bowl and his own litter box.
While we were there, some coward dropped off a box of baby kittens (barely had their eyes open, I'll bet) and then ran. There were about 6 kittens in there. I wanted to say "I'll foster them and give them their formula and raise them to be big and strong" but Mr. Gaia pulled me away fast.

Oh, my husband would have had trouble pulling me away! I've hand raised kittens before, and they turned out so sweet!
