Corey told me over and over, all he wanted for Christmas was a cat. So yesterday, we went to our local Humane Society and adopted this little girl. She's 8 months old and at the shelter, went by the name of Frosty. We want to rename her but haven't decided on a new name yet.
Overall it was a really great experience and very different than I thought it would be. I had never been to an animal shelter before, so I didn't quite know what to expect. A few of the animals looked a little sad, but most of them seemed cheerful and all were well taken care of. There were lots of volunteers circulating, playing with the animals and answering our questions.
She even likes her red bow tie. I got this just so that we could take a Christmas picture. I thought it would be fun if Corey and I dressed in Christmas colors and the cat wore a red satin bow tie. (We haven't taken the picture yet, but we will!) I put it on her and she seemed to like it, to my surprise. I thought it would be a struggle just to keep it on for a photo! I got the bow tie collar from
Parkside Designs via Etsy! Lots of cute handmade stuff, check it out.
Tonight's 12 Days of Christmas activity...dinner with friends and a winter beer tasting!

Sarah, I know, I love the bow tie! Lots of others to choose from in that Etsy shop is you are interested. :) And thank you!
Thanks, Maeg! She likes being photographed...perfect match, I think!
OMG Queenie would never agree to a bow tie unfortunately. Too crabby.
Bow ties are cool...especially on a cat. You know I'm a sucker for photography and these are beautiful photos.
They almost make me want a cat...but my husband would probably evict me.
