We welcomed a new member into our family about two weeks ago, her name is Penny. This is our first cat and we're all still getting used to sharing the house with her, especially Farley. The kids have been crazy for cats for a while now and always go crazy over Aunt Mee-Mee's cat when we're back home. This cat and some of its siblings were found by someone who works with Chad's mom. She called us thinking we might be able to make a home for one. Well, how can you say no to an orphaned cat? So far so good, she's very frisky though, and I think we've all fallen victim to her claws. We will have to have her declawed pretty quickly or I may not have curtains left!
Notice that Penny is nearly at the top of the stairs making herself as small as possible. Farley hasn't been at all aggressive toward her just nosy. Penny is not a big fan of Farley.
The kids could not be happier to have Penny; she's been like new toy and new baby all at the same time! in this picture you'll see that Ben and Macy have made Penny a bed and then covered her up like a baby. Please notice the cat's face - she's practically begging for help!
