Well with only 4 little monster kitties in the house, it seemed we had room in our home and hearts to add to the family.
We got a call from a friend of ours who works with Feline Rescue in Minneapolis and they had found a white kitty sitting outside a foreclosed home. They called the owners who no longer wanted her so they asked if we could foster her for a while until a permanent home could be found.
Foster??? I am not sure I understand that word --especially when it comes to animals and kids. I grow way to attached to quickly and giving them back is never an option.
So we adopted Spice, changed her name to Pinochle and nickname Peanut. She is shy and already has made the underside of the box spring her new home. She is slowly coming out of her shell thanks in part to Pebbles!
Pebbles - Well here is her scoop. So we are working with Pinochle "Peanut" and had her for less than 14 hours when our "friend" calls Suzan and says "there is a little kitty in the street that looks like a small Rockefeller, can you help?" Rock is the only male cat in the house and he looks like Sylvester - black and white.
9am - I get a call with the question, "How about two?" Say hello to Pebbles.
Why the names?
Well the friends we got Spice from are our Pinochle Card Playing Friends so in honor of their friendship and fun we renamed Spice to Pinochle - Peanut for short.
What do you call a small rock at the beach? A pebble, right? So since this little black and white one is full of trouble like our male kitty Rock, her name is now Pebbles.
As I write this they are playing together, chasing each other around and just being kitties. The kitty family is now complete again.
If you have room in your heart as well as your home, adopt an animal today!
