First Pet

We got our very first pet!  A cute little kitty.  Some lady brought in a liter of kittens to the clinic Todd is interning at and was trying to give them away.  If nobody took them then they were just giving them to the humane society.  When Todd first called about it I thought he was joking, but he was actually somewhat serious.  So after running some errands we headed over to check them out.  I love cats and would take them in a heartbeat, but the thought of a cat in an apartment just wasn't a good one.  We talked about it, sat around for awhile, and then Todd just finally put it in a box and we took it home.


Everett LOVED him.  He loved him a little too much.  I felt so bad for the poor thing.  Sadly after 5 days we gave him away.  He was just causing too much stress in our home.  We found a family that had a lot of land and other cats so he'd have a friend.  When they came to pick him up Everett would just say "cat go?"  It was kinda cute and sad at the same time.  We just decided we made the wrong decision.  We want pets eventually, but right now just isn't the right time.  Hopefully someday though!
