Introduction

Wow! What a busy summer already. I'm way behind in everything, including updating this blog. I still have so much to share! But I'm beginning to loathe time spent indoors at the computer. I still love blogging, but somehow we need to figure out a way I can do it outside! (Yeah, I know. Laptop. Maybe someday.)

So good grief, I haven't even had a chance to introduce you to Mittens. We've had her a while. Going on three weeks already. She is our second attempt at having a mouser on the property. We're keeping her inside until she's big enough to handle herself. Our neighbors have informed us that owls and coyotes in this area really like kitties. It's actually been quite fun having this little tabby around. She's playful and cute and super-friendly. She's also got the patience of a saint. This kitty has been thrown from top bunks, held around the neck or by the tail, locked into play kitchen ovens, and probably a million other things I don't know about...multiple times. She's learned to run from Madison. Brooklyn's still pretty quick for her though!

Got caught playing with the string for the blinds.

This is her favorite spot to take a nap. Our bed.
Okay, maybe this is her favorite spot for a nap. This cat is always good for a cuddle.
