A week after we adopted George, he got out in the middle of the night, and ran away from home. He was sleeping on the bed when we went to sleep. When we woke up in the morning, the patio door in our bedroom was ajar just enough, and he was gone. Zack had come in from work at 3:00 a.m., and I think our patio door wasn’t closed completely. When another door in the house is opened, it causes an unlatched door to get pulled open. We searched door to door, put signs up, an ad in the paper and on Craigslist, and I’ve been watching the shelters on a daily basis. No George. He was tagged and micro-chipped, so he may get back to me some day. In looking for him, I found this little guy. I was NOT looking to adopt another cat, and wasn’t even remotely tempted by all of the kittens in the shelter. As soon as I came across the picture of this red headed little guy, I knew he was mine. I even had a name for him….Shamus. I have no idea where the name came from, it just popped into my head. I got to bring Shamus home last Friday. I’ve never had a kitten before, so this is all new to me! I’m enjoying it, and I still hope to find George. I suppose I can quit saying that I’m not a cat person! LOL!
Snoring and purring
Scott’s not a cat person either. LOL!
Are you also not hamster people? You seem to be pretty good not-cat-people!
We’ve had a couple of hamsters over the years, but not since the boys were pretty young.
Awwwww; glad Mr. Douglass is adapting well! Darling photos! Sorry I didn’t respond to your texted pic; It’s been hell week & now I can’t even find it.
love you

I see you’re BOTH not cat people…at least it is equal….
We get sucked in to the evil cuteness I tell you!
He is darling! Enjoy!
And Scott thinks he’s so tough!
Oh I’m so sorry to read about George, but happy that you and Shamus have found each other. I will keep my fingers crossed that George finds his way home to you, too. Shamus is just adorable!
