Here Kitty kitty kitty

Today my husband and I went to Home Depot for a couple of items. We went into the gardening section and a beautiful orange and white striped cat crossed our path. Then we heard something move in the garden hoses. It was a kitten! The guys at Home Depot said we could get it if we wanted to, that the resident cat has several litters a year. One of the guys pointed out the Papa cat who was surveying his domain from the height of the rafters. Boy, Papa cat was huge!

It was easy enough to catch the kitten, just move the hoses and there it was in the corner of the box. Yes, it hissed at us but once we had it in our arms, the hissing stopped. After we toured the garden area we went inside and looked at tile. We saw the same guy from the garden area, he got us a box for the kitten, complete with a shop cloth to make it comfy. A little later he taped the box so we could just leave it in the buggy.

We went to Target next to get things we needed for the kitten. One litter box, box of litter box liners, kitty litter, cat food, and canned cat food made the free kitten cost a little under $20.00. Whether we keep the kitten or not depends on test results for feline leukemia.

We ate at Taco Bell on our way home (our kitchen is in the middle of remodeling) and tried to figure out where to put our Golden Kitten. We decided on the Jack-n-Jill bath (where we bathe the dogs). DH got a dog crate, we put 2 towels and a heating pad in there, cat food, water, and a litter box.

The Goldens know something new is happening, they are not too sure about it yet. Especially since earlier today Sam went to visit Auntie Irina. Hopefully Belle, Harry, and Sizzle don't think we replaced Sam.


Kitten and Goldens saw each other, they are not too happy right now. Well, kitten isn't happy. The Goldens are curious. More on that one later.
