Meet our newest baby, Orbit!
So, we went garage sale hopping on Saturday morning and ended up coming home with a new baby! Meet Orbit!
When I walked up to the sale, he pounced right up to me and started licking my toes! I immediately fell in love right about the time that the woman (who was having the sale) told me he was free! She told us that he was a stray and the poor thing was COMPLETELY covered in fleas. Fico and I debated over whether or not it was a good decision to take him home for a good 30 minutes in this woman's driveway, and ended up coming to the conclusion that we would 100% regret it if we were to leave without him. The woman that was giving him away literally gave us a litter box, a carrier, and food and water bowls for free along with the kitty. We kinda got hooked up, haha. She just really wanted us to take him because she could tell how much we all loved him, including the boys. They fell in love almost as quickly as I did.
He is seriously the perfect pet for our family. So far he is super loving and cuddly, playful, curious, friendly, and hilarious to watch. The boys have so much fun with him. Casen is doing really well with him so far, but Anders in another story. He's kinda hilarious with the cat, but he also scares the crap outta me, we are trying to teach him that it is not okay to carry the kitty around by his neck or his ear or his leg for that matter. I'm kind of kidding, but seriously, he gets a little bit TOO excited with him. Orbit doesn't seem to mind. They get along so well, regardless.
We really couldn't be happier with him and we already love him so much!

Vaguely similar to the Story of Pepper. I'm glad that your mother showed me the path of cats.
