A New Addition

Well there's been a new addition to the Rader family household. And while this new edition is something I've wanted for a long time, it has its minor drawbacks...For instance, I haven't seen it all that much in the last couple of days. It doesn't use the bathroom, or eat or drink (that I know of). It doesn't "talk" to me, or play with me. It's not particulary friendly.

But it sure is cute. We got a cat! It's not the kitty I've always wanted, but it's a cat nonetheless. She's a cutie. She's three years old, and that's pretty much all I can tell you about her, because I haven't SEEN her in the last day or so. She's been so scared ever since she got here and she's been hiding. It's insane. We spent the entire morning trying to pry her out from under our dishwasher, which resulted in Justin getting bit, and still no cat. And he wanted ME to stick my hand under there.....

I'll post pictures of our new addition as soon as she comes out of hiding. So...what's on the agenda this afternoon? Trying to take apart the dishwasher so we can get to what now seems to be our "stuck cat."

"Welcome to your new home, Shadow"
(By the way, not the name I picked...it came with the package and I for one think it's the dumbest name for a cat....everyone and everyone's mom names their cat shadow).

awww! Jess, I'm jelous! we're not allowed to have a kitty here, so I have to wait. I hope she comes out of hiding soon. It takes cats a while to get used to a place but then they're pretty friendly!

We got a cat before we got preggo... now we make him stay outside because I am so afraid he will hurt Gabby. He is a nice cat, but he gets into everything! I hope yours comes out soon, I also hope she is not as nosey as mine!
