New Kitten

Well, we went out and got a new kitten the other day. I had joked a few times with Chris that we should get a cat and over the weekend, he was like let's go look. So Saturday after dinner we drove to the closest pet stores we could find. I didn't wand to jump at the first cute one without meeting it and trying to learn it's personality. So by the time we got done with that it was basically closing time for these places, so we came on home. Sunday we got up and had breakfast and Chris said we could go out and look again, so we went to the pound to see what they had. They had several cats listed online and I seen a couple that looked promising. I was hoping to get one that was a bit older, fixed, and declawed. Even though the couches are 2 1/2 years old, they're still new to me. LOL!
They had tons of cats at the pound, but none that really stuck out to us. There was one that Chris & the kids had been watching this one kitten play at Petsmart on Saturday, so I was like, ok, let's stop at the first place we were at to get a reminder of what they have and if we don't like any of those we'll go back and get that one (who had been named Trainy....don't ask me where they get these names....we saw one at the pound named Lime. LOL!).
So we stopped back by the Pet Co, but their cats couldn't be adopted until today (Tuesday) and Chris was sort of in a now or never mood. LOL! So we went back to Petsmart. We looked at an older cat first, but she was sort of skiddish, so we look at Trainy. This little kitten went crazy! She was climing on all of us and purring and going crazy over the laser light. Chris said it was up to me which one we got, so I was like, ok, Trainy's personality is way better than the older cats. LOL! And I wanted one with a good personality. So we had to go get all the cat stuff and some cash and then we went back and got her.
One of the first things we did was change her name. LOL! She is now named Sadie, which is way better than Trainy. LOL! She did really good when we got her home...she didn't run and hide, although she still doesn't like the dog much. LOL! But I think we did really good picking her. She's really loveable and loves to play. She's 4 months old, so she's eating normal food and knows how to use the litter box. We just keep showing her where it's at so there aren't any accidents. LOL!
Here's a picture of her:
