As some of you may recall, we lost our felines, Natasha and Shay-Shay, about 2 months apart last spring. On Sunday, the lovely Dianne and I adopted two new kitties, Miah (we added the 'h' to her given name be distinctive) and Sassafras (Sassy, of course). They are 6 months old.
A word about the people who provide foster homes for cats and dogs waiting to be adopted--they are quiet heroes. You may count human life more than that of pets; fine, that's a personal judgment and I wouldn't disagree. But these are folks who spend much time and money to save animals that would otherwise meet an untimely and, in all likelihood, unpleasant death. And they don't seek recognition; indeed, it seems that they prefer to remain almost invisible. What a contrast to all the attention-seekers who plague us!
Anyway, here are the kitties:
That's Miah on the left and Sassy on the right, helping Diane with her work. Despite their differing coloration, they are sisters; I guess we know what Mama and Papa looked like.
