In the past two years of non-blogginess, the original Feline Overlord has departed for the Great Feline Heaven, where mice are salmon-flavoured and catnip grows on trees. Inoperable cancer near and eventually growing into her spine. Inexpressible sadness ensued, and tears were many.
Now, however, there are two of them. Life, happiness and a home are incomplete without the proper feline overlordship, and so, Hula Girl and myself hied ourselves to the local cat rescue shelter where one tabby kitten with caramel splotches greeted us with gracious head-bunts and copious purring. Her sister came home with us as well, and sadly succumbed to the cat flu before we really got a chance to know her.
More sadness, alleviated by the adoption a few weeks later of a little ginger tabby with golden eyes.
