Our Newest Addition

Going for almost a whole month without a cat is too long for our family, so this weekend we went to the Humane Society and got Cameron, a female calico. She is so sweet; we are really enjoying her and she has adapted well to our family. Here she is, hangin' with Elmo:

Todd picked her because she's pretty, and he did a good job. It's blind faith, since they don't let you take the cats out of the cages until you're adopting them, which is a little scary. Then she didn't peep the whole way home and I thought she'd died or something. She had a family, but for some reason they took her to the Humane Society; she'd been there since early November - another reason Todd picked her. She still has a lot of kitten in her. The first two nights she woke us up meowing at 4:30 a.m. so we shut her out of our bedroom at night now. She sniffs the boys and rubs her face on their hands. She's not crazy about being chased by Ethan, but she adores Todd and likes to chew on my hair. We named her after Dr. Cameron on "House," one of our favorite shows. It's nice to not be quite so outnumbered by boys now. :)
