Intoducing Scooter!

This weekend Kristi and I went to the Whatcom Humane Society and found a little brother for Edison. She's been really lonely since Oscar passed away a few months ago, and we thought it was time.

Turns out it's going to take time for her to warm up to her new little brother; she's always been so sweet and easy going, but this weekend has been full of hissing and growling and generally being a poor host. (We'd never even heard her growl until this!) So we're taking it slow, and only letting them hate at each other under supervision.

He's five months old and shares his birthday with my dad. He's really playful and very sweet. He might end up being our first "lap kitty"; He's already taken a good long nap on Kristi's lap!

We're looking forward to being a family of four again and hope Edison eventually sees him as the cute little ginger tabby cat playmate that he is instead of the hideous redheaded stepchild that she sees him as now.
