I think we are going to have to get a two bedroom and keep the second one just for the boys!
WOOHOO!!!!! I'm so pleased for you! I'm sure he'll be a wonderful boy, and it will be great if you can meet him and spend some time with him over the next few months - it will definitely make things easier on him

you also might see if you can bring one of his back for your guys, too.

IA. If you need me, just meow..
Congrats on the new furball! It was fate that brought him to you. I bet he'll turn out the be one of the greatest cats in the world!
Oh yeah, don't worry about your breakables, Abbys like to knock things off of places (so they say) and I have yet to see that of Rocket. He's a great and hyper cat!

I think the Lord had planned for you to say something out loud at work and for you to find this boy.

I would think that with 8-bit, your house would already be kitty-proofed.

Oh goody! I didn't want to say anything - I hear Tonkinese are great though. But I think they are those cats that are about smarter than most people, LOL.
