chloe

I knew my mom had new kittens at her house so I was worried when we visited for Easter. Michael already mentioned that a friend for Izzie might be good. It would keep her off his head in the middle of the night. So, this happen. The kitten allergy test.

She passed the test. We were still going back and forth on whether or not to take her home, but as we were literally getting into the car to head home Michael told me to grab the kitten. She slept the whole way home.

I sent the above picture to our family and my sister-in-law Krista suggested the name Chloe. She looks like a Chloe so we went with it. It took a couple of days for Izzie to get used to her, but now they are the best of friends. Things get a little rough when they play, but Izzie is about two times bigger than her so it's to be expected. She's a little fluff ball and loves to cuddle. Sometimes I call her Fluffernut. I've given her a bath twice now and there is nothing to her. Friday night she hung out with me while I caught up on some tv. 

She's taken to the litter box pretty well, but there have been a few accidents. Luckily those have been on the hardwood and not the rugs. She likes to sleep on the rug right under the kitchen sink. This was last night as we're making dinner, putting away lunchboxes and eating. It's really not a good place to sleep since we almost stepped on her several times.

Izzie is doing really well. When we went to my mom's for Easter she was home alone for about 30 hours. This was the first time we left her for that long. Ever since we gotten home she's been a different cat. She's been friendlier and more accepting of the girls torture. It's like she really missed us. I make sure to give her special attention every day.

Sometimes she's just funny. This is when she got in the laundry basket and just hung out for 15 minutes or so.

This pink chair is her spot. Chloe better not try and take it from her.

We love these kitties and are glad they've joined our family. So far it's been a lot of fun. Except for the vet bills. And that time Izzie knocked the litter box over while I was cleaning the hallway. Not so fun cleaning up that mess.
