Meet Tigger!

     This past Friday, my friend Brittany and I visited the local SPCA where I volunteer to look at the kittens that they had because my friend has been considering adopting one.  For those of you that don’t know, the SPCA is an animal shelter.  The first cat we saw – Kandy Korn – was an orange and white short hair that we both absolutely fell in love with.  We went into the playroom with him and he was so friendly!  He couldn’t stop climbing into our laps to cuddle and he was purring up a storm the entire time we were with him.

     We looked at other cats too while we were there and while we did find many kittens that Brittany liked, none of them compared to Kandy Korn.  We asked a few questions about him and about the adoption process in general, and the next thing we knew, Brittany was filling out an adoption application and we were approved right on the spot.  Brittany called her parents and they agreed to let her adopt the kitten, so the next thing we knew, Brittany became the owner of a kitten!

     On Monday we brought Tigger, the kitten’s new name, home to Brittany’s apartment after he was neutered at the vet. He was a little out of it because of the anesthesia, but overall he was doing great.  He was pretty playful considering what a rough morning he’s had, and we had a great time playing and cuddling with him all night.

     The next morning, Brittany said that he had been acting really strangely, so she ended up taking him to the vet again.  They found out that he had a mild respiratory infection – something that takes care of itself.  So, he’s been a little miserable and not as playful the past few days, but overall he’s doing well and we can already see that he’s recovering. 

     So meet Tigger! The newest animal in my life!  I hope everyone is doing well and that you all have fabulous days!
