TWO new cats!  At least I think I have two.  One is hiding.

I went to Petco where the local place, Cats in Need, has an adoption day.  I guess it's hard for them to place black cats, and it's hard for them to place tortoiseshells, and it's hard to place bonded pairs, cats that are two for one deals.

So I got a black and tortie bonded pair.  :)  Their names are Marbles and Marko--for now.  I always thought TS Eliot was right about letting cats name themselves, so no doubt they'll tell me later.

My tortie girl is sooo sweet and affectionate.  She was a bit scared but she's been home for about four hours, and not only is she out from behind the sofa and getting lots of cuddles, she has the rips now.  She's actually doing that Pounce thing Sim cats do.  So in less than twenty four hours, I predict that everything in the house will be hers and she'll just be letting me use it.  I can't see her with a name like Marbles permanently.  She'll probably wind up with a name like Bathilde.

Marko is hiding.  He's a lovely black boy with big yellowy orange, almost copper, eyes.

Anyway, this will probably slow down the next update, but I figure you guys won't mind.
