Meet Junior (Kitty)

Meet Junior - name after Dale Earnhardt Jr. (Johnny is a huge NASCAR fan)






For awhile now, Johnny and I have been debating about getting a dog for us to raise. Our choice was suppose to be a English Bulldog. But when we were looking at the prices, we thought it was a little much for a dog. I always thought the negative point about getting a dog is destroying our living environment and having our place smell like dog. So for the past few weeks, we decided to look at other options.








For the past couple weeks we have been going to the local animal shelter to look for a kitty or a young cat. Finally, Friday we went to the Humane Society Satelite location at Petco to look at their available kitties. Yes - we found one. We named him Junior after Dale Earnhardt Jr. Johnny is a huge Junior fan. Our Junior is only 2 months ago and 2.7lbs.
Since this was our first pet, we had to go around Petco after the adoption paper were signed we had to walk around Petco to buy all the stuff for him. When we left the facility, associate told us that we need to keep Junior locked up in his spot for a week. When we got home, he came out of his carrier with no problem and openned up on his spot and environment. By the first night, he was well adjusted.
Overall, he's a very good kitty. Over at Petco today, there were three other kitties to chose from. Two out of the three had a cat conditional - polydactyl. So his siblings - one had seven toes and the other one had 6 toes.
