They were the best felines, they were the worst felines, they were cats of wisdom, they were cats of foolishness.
Two kitten/cats (about 5 months old) followed us home when we went to get Josef from the bus on Friday. I thought they would go home and sure enough on Saturday morning they were gone. But when I opened the blinds Sunday morning, there they were. Karl fed them tuna and milk and the attachment was complete. They were scrawny little things and they ate like they hadn't eaten in awhile. We decided to keep them since no one came looking for them and Karl made an appointment to get them fixed (they are a boy and a girl). Last night we found out they belong to a lady who lives up the street from us. We never actually talked to the lady, but she told a friend of ours that we could keep them, she didn't have time to take care of them. Only problem is she was definitely drunk when she said it. Karl went to her house this morning to make sure that we could keep them, but she wasn't home. Karl, who is more of a softie than he will admit, decided that we are keeping them and took them to et fixed this morning. So I guess we're keeping them. Are we good samaritans or are we cat theives? You'll have to decide for yourselves. The kids named them Ben-10 and Ballet, but their Jellicle names are Mungo Jerry and Rumpleteaser.
Great Weight Loss Race update: I have been down five pounds in august, unfortunately, when I weighed myself yesterday I was only one pound lighter than I was when we started. So I didn't reach my goal, but I will keep losing 3 pounds as my goal for this month.

Oh, what a softie Karl is! Remember how much he "hated" that kitten that wanted to come in at Thanksgiving?
As far as the weight-loss race goes...I weighed myself on Thursday at Jed's doctor visit (since we accidentally left our scale in BP) and I am down 5 pounds! I didn't really have a goal but will make 5 pounds my goal again next month. Thanks for getting us started on this, Holli! It's nice to know that someone besides me is trying to work out.
Love ya!
Congrats on your new family members! Kids pick the best pet names, LOL!!! Maybe you need a new scale ;o)
I like their Jellicle names. :-)
