My Babies

Okay, so I'm bored. I'm off work tonight, I have gotten everything done that needed to be done, and I have nothing else to do. I sat here for atleast five minutes trying to think of something creative to write, but came up blank. So, I'll just let you in on another piece of my life: my babies. If you have read my very first blog, you know that I don't have children. In this case, my babies are my two kitties! Kitkat and Snickers. For a long time, I had wanted cats. My husband though, didn't. He said he hated cats! Finally, I was able to talk him into letting me get them. My Aunt Terri's cat had a litter, and I went to her house to pick out my babies. Before even getting there, I knew one that I wanted for sure, and that is the one I call Snickers. When the kittens were born, one was born without a tail! So, I picked her, and Kitkat I picked because she was the runt. We have had them since July 12, 2008. They are the cutest little things, and each has their own personality. Kitkat is very loving, but only to me and my husband. Anyone else, she runs and hides, and if you try to pet her, she will hiss and scratch at. But at the same time, she's the biggest scaredy-cat that I have ever seen. She is scared to death of.....clothes! LOL. If you toss a sock or shirt at her, she jumps back like 10 feet. If I'm doing laundry, she'll sneak past the pile of clothes on the floor, crouching way down, walking slowly and staring at it until she's past it, then she takes off running. I'll have to get a video of this soon and post it. It's hilarious. As for Snickers, she's the cutest cat I've ever seen. She follows my husband around EVERY WHERE! She just loves him to death. She's very playful and loves to talk. She can even tell you what she wants. If she wants to go outside on the balcony, she'll walk over to the door and meow. If she wants her litter box cleaned, she goes next to it and meows. If she wants the blinds open so that she can hop up in the window sill and look outside, she'll stare up at it and meow. It's so cute. Both of them absolutely LOVE bedtime. Anytime my husband and I go to bed, they both run behind us and hop up in the bed and start "pawwing" at the blankets. Snickers is also an alarm clock. Several times, she has woken up my husband when he has overslept for work. She takes her paw and lightly bats at your nose to wake you up. Of course, she also does this if she's just bored and wants petted or played with, but you are asleep. So, sorry if this is a corny blog. Again, I'm bored and I love my cats to death so I thought I'd share them with the world!
