Early Christmas Present

In early December my wonderful friend, Tammy, emailed me some pictures of some kittens that a friend of her's was trying to give away in Red Deer.  Well, I couldn't resist!  Little Kfer (K for kitty) came to live with us about a week before Christmas.  I was too chicken to tell Curtis and I couldn't tell Claire because she can't keep a secret to save her life, so, I told Daniel and he and I counted down to arrival day.  On the way home from Edmonton with the kitty, I called home to tell Claire we were on our way and she heard the kitten meow.  After I hung up with Claire, my cell phone rang again, less than a minute later.  I said to Daniel, "the jig is up!"  Yes, she told her Dad in that small amount of time!!  

Kfer came for my own selfish reasons because I haven't had a kitten since Freedom was a baby and also for practical purposes as I have decided to retire Freedom from his cat testing duties and Shaylee has never been good at that job.  They are living very happily in the basement and come up each morning for "snacks".  So far Kfer is everything I wanted in a kitty.  She is super cuddly and has no fear of the dogs, as you can see in the picture.  She even plays with Tipper now and Tipper plays back!!  

We just love her to pieces.  How could you not!!

She certainly seems comfy and much bigger than the first picture we saw. I have to say, I admire your justification abilities.
