Well I had offered to have a mum cat and her two kitties, but I realised that to have that large an influx of cats wouldn't be fair on Pippin, so unfortunately I've had to decline. I didn't find the decision too hard, when I found out that neither of the female cats liked being held, and were quite temperamental. I want to have a cat who loves being cuddled and stroked. So there is another little girl kitten, called Grace, a little black cat and about 4 months old. She's very affectionate and loves to sit on a lap and snuggle in. That sounds more like it!!!!!!!!

So tomorrow night, one of the volunteers of the Cats Protection is bringing Grace to meet me. There is no obligation on my part to take her, but if that spark between us is there, then of course I'll keep her. So wish me luck. I do so want a friend for Pippin and a friend for me too.

I don't know if I'll keep the name though, I'll have to wait to see what personality she has then decide on her forever name.
