Introducing My FurBabies (Day of Blogs ’08 #14)

Rachel @ Blog-Wise is blogging for PAWS Atlanta, and she’s posting stories about people’s pets.  I thought I’d take a break from writing about literacy related things and introduce my pets (which is also #31 in the Day of Blogs Writing Prompts)!

My kittens just turned 1 year old last week.  They’re brothers, and I adopted them from AARF.  A vet who works with AARF found them (along with their sister) in a box at her front door one day.  The vet kept the little girl and gave the boys to AARF.  They had a very hard time finding a home because they are very attached to each other and AARF really preferred that they be adopted together.

My Christmas present from my parents this year was a pair of kittens.  I looked at several shelters before I met my babies.  Once I heard how much they needed to be together, I knew that they should go home with me.  I wanted an orange kitten, so I was a little sad that they were both black and white, and with such angular (part-Siamese) faces.  However, now that I’ve had them, I know that was so silly!  They are so incredibly loving and well-behaved.  They love each other and they think the world revolves around me, LOL!

I named them Oscar and Miles after the jazz musicians Oscar Peterson and Miles Davis.  I can’t imagine having taken any other kittens!

Oscar!
