Introducing Henry

Well, I've gone and gotten a kitten.

I wasn't planning on getting another cat, but the more time passed with Fee as an Only Cat, the more I realized she was lonely and bored.

Fee would like me to tell you she is really not-sure about this small creature made of springs and teeth. His kitty manners are particularly lacking. He has an annoying habit of smacking her in the back of the head when he walks by. He tries to eat her food. He's taken over some of her favorite spots. She has worn herself out hissing at him; it's the only way she has to tell him what he can and can't do.

Then again, he's warm, happy, funny, and very entertaining to watch. He seems to be...getting bigger. Maybe he is not going to stay a kitten for much longer? Maybe he will learn some kitty manners? She is not so easily annoyed with him anymore. The house seems warmer and happier. It is good to have a friend.

She is no longer bored. Was she ever able to jump that high? How can he be in such an incessantly good mood?

This is Henry. Henry is about six months old now and has lived with us since July. He was left in a flower-pot at a tile store, rescued, and is quite happy with his new home.
