It's been a long time since I've written a 'cat' post. Riley passed in November, so it's been a while now. Jake passed in April of last year, over a year now since that sweet little girl left us. Norah and Abby don't get along well, partly (mostly?) I think because Abby was never socialized with other cats or humans - and just can't make friends. Norah I think, misses Riley. Until he got sick in the end, he used to cuddle with her and now Norah doesn't have a cuddle buddy.
Meet Emmett.
I found Emmett on Instagram, a little boy whose Momma was a stray rescued while pregnant by a nice lady who lives about 4 hours from me. There were 4 kittens born, 2 girls and 2 boys. Emmett - known as Aspen caught my eye from the moment I saw him. When he is fully weaned I will be making the drive to get him.
He has a brother I am tentatively considering as well. But since I made my daughter promise to never let me have 4 cats again, I am only considering. I am totally over-thinking the whole thing - what if Norah rejects Emmett and then he has no one? But if I bring home 2 kittens, will they only bond with each other and still leave Norah out in the cold? No way of knowing.
But Emmett. Isn't he the cutest thing?
