New Friends

[c9]

- we went to a fun party last night, and we're starting to make friends -- yay!
- we're talking about adopting cats!

I would like these two cats:

	Neo
	Trinity

They're siblings, so adopting them together is of course best. Unfortunately there are two problems: they're not declawed, which is leapfish's preference to protect our couches (since a spray bottle is not quite as effective). Also (ssshhh, don't tell Vinny) they're named after characters from the Matrix.

Maybe we could rename them (to avoid the geekiness factor for Vinny) to slightly different names (to avoid confusion for them). Nemo? El Nino? Divinity? Salinity? I'd better stop now.

and we'd get him fixed... if you're willing to pay the $200+ (USD) fee.

:-) I have to save up for fixing our pets, once we have them! (Actually, most shelters in this neighbourhood appear to do the fixing for you, and just charge you the fees. Seems like a good approach.)

so are these two cute felines going to substitute for children for a few years? if so, i think that's a _great_ idea. then again, i don't know too much about your quest for kids in the first place.

perhaps one day we'll be able to chat about it...

Not for a few years necessarily, though adoption can take quite a long time, depending on (and I hate this phrase) what type of kid you're looking for. But certainly we've wanted pets, and it can't hurt to have a living thing that needs a bit of attention before moving onto the headliner.

Though of course, cats don't really *need* humans. Employ would be a better verb.
