We saw lots 'o babies last night. Not only did we see our Pastor's new baby (she was SO SWEET...I want a baby girl!!), we also saw my sis-in-law's baby kitties. Her cat had 5 babies about 4 weeks ago, and Michael dragged me in there to see them to try and change my mind about wanting a cat. I am NOT a cat person, and I don't want little razor sharp kitty claws damaging what few nice things I DO have. But then Terri said something about taking them to the pound, and I'm like NOOOOOO! So out of PITY, and NOTHING MORE, I agreed to take one off her hands. We already picked out a name and everything. We just have to wait 'til they're 6 weeks old before we can bring one home.

But then that takes us to the next dilemma. The week we'd be able to take her is the same week we are going on vacation. Now Terri COULD hold onto her for another week while we're gone, BUT the only problem is that Terri is going to be gone for 5 weeks on some job training in Minnesota. So basically, she has NO ONE to look in on the cats or her dog. The dog can go to the kennel, no problem, but the cats, well, that's a different story. We NEED to find SOMEONE that can go to her house every day for that one week WE are going to be gone, to look in after those cats and make sure they are eating and stuff. OR we need to find someone (besides the pound) that will take the mama cat AND her babies, for that one week, until we get back from vacation. Talk about bad timing. The week we are leaving for vacation is the same week she is leaving for her job training, and she was wanting us to look in after her animals while she's gone. ANY suggestions would be appreciated, because we don't wanna see those kitties go to the pound, and no, we can't change our vacation plans because we'll lose a lotta money. So, anybody want 6 cats?
