So I'll reintroduce myself...
I'm Steve, from NE Columbus, Ohio.
I hate to brag, but I think I have the sweetest kitten in the world.
Dakota is 7 mo. old. I adopted her from a local rescue shelter here in Columbus. She's all black and quite behaved for a 7 mo. old kitten I believe.
We recently had our first vet visit last Friday and she didn't fuss, cry, scratch, bite, anything you'd expect a scared animal to do at the vet. She just sat there and took it with a "Ugh...are we done yet?" look on her face...
She's lived with me now for almost a month now. She was supposed to have a roommate, but the other kitten I was going to adopt had some health problems. A URI, then a fungus on the tail.
Needless to say, I thought I had my hands full with one kitten that first weekend, but now, I really feel that Dakota deserves a playmate instead of the toy mice and stuffed animals I have laying around for her to tackle and attack. I know I don't have nearly enough time to play with her as I would like and every where I've read, here included, has said that the best way to keep a kitten occupied is ANOTHER KITTEN!
So I stopped up at the shelter I got my Dakota at and the other kitten I had paid the adoption fee for was still there, however, still in quarantine.
They're holding her for me and will contact me when she's better.
I think in the end, I'll probably end up with that 2nd kitten. I know if I posed that question here, I'd get the same response from most of you.
I know I've promised pictures of her before, but have yet to deliver. I'll have them uploaded when I get home from work though.
