Summertime & Snuggles!

It's been too long! Sorry I haven't been back writing anything since April! School is always nuts the last 2 months and needless to say I was a slacker with my blog. So to the few that occasionally take a look, I'm sorry!
We have a new addition to our gang! As some of you may remember, our chubby cat Casey, passed away in October from complications from her diabetes. We were all so sad and had thought long and hard about another four footed friend. Well my weekend job, which I will talk about next, happens to be right next to a Petsmart. I sometimes go in and look at the animals for adoption. I always adopted my cats, saving a life made me feel good! Anyway, I was looking at all the kittens, now seriously who doesn't love a kitten, they're cute, fuzzy, cuddly and just plain adorable. I would have the kitty fixed, but I was on the fence about declawing. Yes, I've done it in the past, but I'm older and wiser and wasn't sure how I felt about it. The $600 plus price tag for spaying/neutering and declawing was a bit daunting as well. They had a cute calio cat they had named Boots J, she's 1 year old, spayed and declawed. She was left at a veterinarian's parking lot. He took her home and his Jack Russell chased her everywhere! The vet felt bad and put her up for adoption. So.......I'm sure you can guess where this is headed right? Welcome to our family Snuggles (Boots J, really?!)!
She's so cool! So cuddly, and fun! The girls love her and so do we! She fit right in from the beginning and keeps us smiling everyday!
My weekend gig! I am still working as a demonstrator for a national craft company! It is so fun! The store I am at is great! The employees are so friendly and nice! I may not have sold TONS of stuff, but it's nice to have fun at your job! We have a few weeks off, and then back to work!
