The arrival of Brutus.
written by Julie R. Neidlinger 4 comments link this post
The arrival of a new little pet is always...something. A friend of mine got a new puppy which made me appreciate cats all the more.
My cat, Brutus, didn't arrive without incident, however.
My sister Janet, a veterinary technician, is always calling to try to cajole me into taking yet another dog or cat that needs a home. My guard must have been down back in July of 2004, because when she started in by saying how cute the little kitten was -- "Julie, he's really fuzzy!" -- I just couldn't say no. I can always say no; if I didn't, we'd be overrun. But for some reason...I couldn't say no. (He really was cute, by the way.)
Dad was, luckily, down visiting my sister and was able to bring the little critter back home.
The five-hour drive back may not have been a lot of fun for dad. Find out for yourself.
(Look how cute he was!!!)
(And he's still cute!!!)
(I think I've used up my allotment of the word "cute" for the day.)

Dang you, Will! I was going to say that. But more pithily. (Disclaimer for those who don't appreciate sarcasm:smile, wink, nudge, wink, smile)

Why'd you change the picture?! That's not fair. It's confuses dumb animals.
