A cat… and no mouse

Here’s a bit of family news… we’ve got a cat! Actu­ally it’s Alison’s new cat, but we are all def­i­nitely enjoy­ing it!

At our pump­kin carv­ing party, my brother Ken asked if any­body wanted a cat. His neigh­bor in Mil­waukie had been taking care of an aban­doned cat and was look­ing for a home for it. Usu­ally when any­body asks that ques­tion, the answer is quick and def­i­nite “No, Thanks!”

But the idea had been dis­cussed at our dinner table a few weeks prior to this, so we were open to the pos­si­bil­ity. Within a day or so, Alison decided the time was right. So the arrange­ments were made, and Ken and Tonya’s neigh­bors per­son­ally deliv­ered it out here to Dundee! This man and his wife have placed sev­eral res­cued cats in the Port­land area, and really care about their well-​being.

This cat (not named yet) is very friendly (unlike our last one!) and gets to be inside (also unlike our last one!).

    Let us know when Kitty gets a name. Glad it has a friendly per­son­al­ity.

    Did you change your blog header for a reason? I loved the blink­ing “Comfort Zone”

    Kathryn E was trying to find your Yellow Truck blogs. There may be a more friendly index that I can’t find, but I did locate them and sent her the sites.

    About the header change:
    Thanks! I like that image best so far too, but I just can’t leave things alone! I have to tinker with new images and try out new tech­niques that I l am learn­ing. (Cur­rent Motto: If it ain’t broke, fix it ’til it is!)

    Find­ing the Yellow Truck post:
    The best way is to just type “Yellow” into the search box (bottom of right-​hand column), and click “Go”.
