Those are gudgud idearments, but Fred is now strongly leaning towards "Diana" fur the mother. She was the Goddess of the hunt, you know. Then there's the connection wif Diana Spencer who made such a wonderful impression on the world, and should not be forgotten. Yup, Diana would be a gudgud name fur her. Maybe she'll post soon. Still there's not the foggiest noshum ov what to call the kid. hooman note: I managed to take some digital photos this morning when the cats came close to the window and on the couch. They needed to be in bright light of my cheap digital "Pencam" wouldn't work. As it is there are serious problems with the high contrast in the photos and *someone's* finger over the lense in a large number of the photos. The cats spent the first night exploring and several times Diana woke me asking for more food. They have gone through 6 or 7 small tins of food in one 24 hour period, and these are not large cats. I expect it was the excitement. By one o'clock this afternoon, they finally tired out and slept right through till 6:00pm. Awww, sound almost like hooman kittens. I hope things work out, it would be so good if mother and daughter could stay together. I adopted a brother and sister (I was only going to get the brother, but the sister wouldn't let go of him and kept looking at me. And, I had my 10 year old at the time son) Let me just say I am convinced family members should stay together if at all possible. They are over a year old now and still sleep next to each other a lot. Yeah. I had some doubts last night; not about the cats but about my ability to care for them. By the way, it's a mother and son, not a mother and daughter. But today I was able to handle everything and make some progress on the housework. I also dug up Jetadiah's insulated house and removed the moth balls that I had been using to keep the skunks out. Jetadiah was turning up on the porch still smelling of them and I thought it might be not good for him, or at least unpleasant. His place should be warm and comfortable now. I've named the newcomers now. The mum is "Daina" and the son,... Well I just got my Satellite dish hooked up and was watching Tottenham Hutspur against Arsenal this morning, (needed the football fix), and the kitten was fascinated and ever so cute watching it and practically batting at the ball on the screen. That intensity can only be rewarded by the name of a football hero, and since I'm a Manchester United fan first, I decided to call him Ryan, after Ryan Giggs, one of my favourite players. So there we are; Diana and Ryan. (OK, it's an odd couple, but they were named independantly, and they seem to fit). They did the afternoon sleep again today, It seems like it's going to be a tradition, for a while anyway. Later I found out that Ryan is just fascinated by the TV, regardless of what show is on. They are settling down and starting to treat the house like it's a onetruehome. -- Fred (Remove FFFf from my email address to reply if by email) |

whoops! Sorry Ryan for the gender error...I really hope things work
out. I have seven rescues and two humankittens (12 and 14). My idea of housework at this point is using the rake indoors. |

Well, we've arrived and our "one home" and I'm not aat all sure about the "true" part. The rescuer and Fred held both me and Ryan and squirted stuff in out ears, (as if they weren't troublesome enough already). I hid under the bed fur half an hour to show my disgust at such treatment. Effentuly I came out fur som fuud that Fred put down and maybe I'll fingk about forgiving him. My dumb soccer crazy son, Ryan, was upset fur all ov 5 seconds and thenm staerted chasin that mouse onne string like nothing wuz wrong,... shaking his head effurry so offen. The Fred openned up tha bassment doors and we both went explorin down there. Ryan is upset that the Real Madrid game issn't on the TV. I'm fuury glad that although I had most ov my litter taken away, they didn't take my Ryan frum me, an we can be togeffer now. Effurry so offen he gets off by hisownself and I get scared and call out fur him. This startles Fred. It wuz embarrassing when I wuz crying fur him an he wussn't answering and I cried sum more, an Fred came an lifted up the bedcover, an there wuz Ryan, unnder the bed not a foot frum me! The little rascal wuzzn't tellin me he wuz right there. Kids these days!!!
