Yes, we got a kitten. Getting a pet has been a conversation between the both of us for some time and we finally decided to give it a try. We went to the Columbus Humane Society this past Thursday, but didn't find anything that we really fell in love with. Then, on Friday we made our way to the Starkville Humane Society and came home with this little guy we like to call Amos. Amos had been dropped off in a cardboard box on the porch at the Starkville Humane Society with some of his siblings. They weren't able to tell us for sure how old Amos is, but they estimated him to be about six weeks old. He is really tiny, but yes we know he isn't going to stay this small for very long. The good news is that training is going very well; we think we found ourselves a pretty good cat. :) He is very social and loves being with us wherever we are in the house. He has a pretty mild personality, but loves to play. Right now, one of his favorite things to do is to chase his shadow in and out of the bars on the bottom of our coffee tables. Also, as you can see in this picture he loves the laser pointer. This is Amos on Adam's arm waiting to pounce. I must say he has pretty good balance for a little guy.
And Amos LOVES to cuddle up in our laps. We love how social he is and of course as you can see in the pictures below he has a way of getting to our hearts when he crawls on our laps and sprawls out to take a nap :)
