Our New Babies

We have added two new members to our family! As many of you know, we lost our dog Emma earlier this year. We have really missed having a pet, but were enjoying the ease with which we could leave the house! So while we were considering another dog, a cat seemed like a wiser choice, since they don't seem to mind being left alone as much as dogs do. We both work all day, so we decided to get TWO kitties, so they could keep each other company. We bought a 5 month old ragdoll kitten, and a 1 1/2 year old retired breeder -- also a ragdoll. They are beautiful cats, with sweet temperments. Ragdolls are typically a large breed, with males often tipping the scales at 20 pounds. They have a very soft rabbit like coat, and are very docile. Here are a couple pictures! Mischa, shown below, is the older, momma kitty. She had one litter, but had a very difficult time delivering, so she was spayed. The younger cat, yet unnamed, is a bundle of energy and often runs so fast he slips and slides on our wood floor. It is fun to watch them play.
