Our pets
we are a pet-loving household.
when we moved in together, tim brought his cat, Kibby, with him to the house. she spent her final two years with us. after her death, paul and tim decided they needed a break from animals to recover from her loss.
six months later, the house felt empty and we needed new animals to love on. we went to the shelter, where tim's sister works, to select our next two kitty-kids. We went for two and came home with three (tim's sister knew we'd be suckers). We adopted tommy, sweeney, and gypsy and brought them home to be our new additions.
thinking we were done for a while, a year and a half later, we went to a family christmas and a small, precious kitty had SNEAKED his way into tim's cousin's house. she lives on a farm and was going to put him out in the barn, but we felt (again, suckers) the cat deserved a better life than just a barn life. So, we brought him home and added Charlie to our household.
When naming our cats, we continued the "y" sound in Kibby's name, but wanted to name these new additions after musicals (which we enjoy).
Tommy (age 7) - the who's tommy
sweeney (Age 6.5) - sweeney todd, the demon barber of fleet street
gypsy (Age 6.5) - gypsy
Charlie (age 5) - you're a good man, charlie brown
they have all adjusted well and are living their best lives with treats everyday, lactose-free milk in the morning, plenty of food, and lots of cuddles, snuggles, and love.
