The Kitties

  Well we finally gave in to our children's request to get a cat.  Draco came home and was none to happy.  Our cute little black cat was a bit aggressive when playing.  He would stalk us from corners and inflict serious damage.  Surely, it was not on purpose, nevertheless it was painful to his victims.  We decided to get him a playmate.  Luna our white kitty is adorable and she has certainly tamed Draco.  The problem is she is a severe scratcher.  Our beautiful home is now full of white hairs and scratches can be found on all  of the furniture.

   Ironically,  my husband and I are more attached to the little beasts than the kids are.  These kitties could live for years.  My home that I took such pride in, is not quite as awesome as it used to be.  I am constantly vacuuming and the couches can't be replaced as they will simply destroy those too.  I could never declaw the beasties.

   Another added bonus, is that we now need to fight with the kids over maintaining the cat litter, water, and food.  I truly resent this little matter, as there is plenty else to fight with them about.

   If  I had a crystal ball I would have never gotten them.  Too late now.  I love those kitties.  In short we are stuck like chuck!
