That's right, I lied.

Cayman didn't REALLY follow me home. (But you knew that, right?) A couple of days ago I was innocently purchasing a bag of cat food at our vet clinic when I noticed five little kittens behind the counter. The clinic accepts "rescued" cats, checks them over and then gives them away to good homes. I had a feeling that Scott's reluctance to bring home a new kitten would melt away as soon as he saw this brood. I ran to the car and dragged Scott into the clinic. After about twenty minutes of handling the kittens, Scott made his choice. Basically, Cayman came free with a bag of cat food.


Here's the little bugger now, doing a very poor job of making friends with Molly:



Undeterred by several open-pawed swats to the face, Cayman tried the same approach with Trooper:



And while I'm on the topic of pets (when am I not?), I thought I would share with you a couple of images of Max, the pug who has been wreaking havoc on our floors and our olfactory organs:



Last but not least, here is a photo of Max sleeping on the sofa with his leg down the back of my jeans.


Now that's what I call a hind leg.

Aw great pics! What is he, about 4-5 months old? Soooo cute. I love the backstory too. Technically, he didn't "follow" you home but you still got picked!

I didn't know that, I am so gullable.

The nuns at my old Catholic school said it was a sin to lie, but they were psychotics, so who gives a damn what they think?

Nice kitty.

Totally cute menagerie.... Are you getting any sleep or is the wee'bit of a kitten engaging in nocturnal nonsense and play?
