Introducing Cadbury

Sunday, May 6, 2007Personal

I decided to go ahead and adopt a cat this weekend. I’d been thinking about it for awhile, just finally figured it was time to just do it. Meet Cadbury:

I got her from the Richmond SPCA. She’s very sweet. You can click on the above image for more pictures of her. She’s been cracking me up most of the weekend. I made sure to go out and get some toys for her and all the stuff you need to take care of a cat before I brought her home. When I first got her here, she spent a good while hiding under my bed. I eventually brought her out and she sat in my lap for a bit, then returned to under the bed. But a couple hours later she ventured out on her own and started to explore the apartment. It took her about 24 hours to start eating, but the SPCA said it wasn’t uncommon for them to take 2-3 days to start eating, so I figure that’s pretty good.

She’s definitely clinging onto me some, and I’ve been giving her lots of attention. It sort of makes me laugh because when I walk around the apartment she heels me almost like a trained dog might, heh. And when I’m watching TV in the living room, she definitely feels a need to sit in my lap and watch or curl up and go to sleep. As I type this she’s sitting in the chair with me, to my side, laying on her back sleeping. Too funny.

Anyhow, thought I’d share :)
