A number of my readers have asked about the new kitty around the house, Astrid.
Well, first the big shocker. On very close inspection, Astrid is not a female cat, but male. Thus HE will be neutered and declawed next week. He is having a great time living here. He is climbing the plants, scratching my very expensive fabrics and trying to make peace with the dogs and Karma, the other cat. Right now he is crashed out on my bed after a long day of creating trouble. He sleeps with me at night, but horribly wakes up at about five a.m. and "makes bisquits" which means he kneads me with his claws. He gets thrown off the bed repeatedly, but keeps coming back for more. I have little scratch marks all over my body. Still, as only an animal can do...he has brought extra love into this house. He is happy and enjoys every moment. He is still a kitten and finds everything a big adventure. I didn't want another cat, but am so glad that Astrid is a new part of our family. LOVE AN ANIMAL...it can only enrich your life. We are getting a new camera for Xmas and will post pics. of him when we can.
