Well, we got a kitty on Monday...she's our first cat ever. We named her Persephone (per-sef-o-nee...pronounciation lol). We got her from the humane society nearby. She was the friendliest kitty there :) She's at least two but she's pretty small. When we went to the vet, she weighed in at 8 pounds, but the vet said she's perfectly healthy and everything. When we first got her home, she explored the whole house and (so far :p) she's been a perfect angel :D She's very affectionate and loves to be petted...is that word? I don't even know....lol, oh well. She also likes to play peek-a-boo :p. The only pics I have are her pics from her petfinder.com page...I would have more, but my camera is being stupid and doesn't want to work right now :rolleyes: Anyway, I present to you...Miss Persephone! (PS, you can click on the pics to see a bigger version)

She's so cute! Love her coloring. I think, if she were mine, I'd just call her Percy. Hope you enjoy your first cat ever :)

Awww...she's beautiful! And I love her name! I'm glad you told us how to pronounce it though. ;)

I, too, would like to say thanks for adopting an adult kitty. As you will see, she will bring you every bit as much pleasure as a kitten would. Can't wait for more pics! :D

Thanks for letting us see Persephone (is that Greek or Roman mythology - we forget! :D )
The tribe of 5 think she's a doll.
Thanks for adopting an adult kitty - sometimes they get lost in the shuffle when it comes to finding a home because there are so many little cute kittens. She looks like she'll be a wonderful companion!

The name is from Greek mythology, here's a page that tells a little about her here (http://www.pantheon.org/articles/p/persephone.html)
My mom originally wanted to call her Percy but my dad and I like the name Persephone a bit better so this name still worked out pretty good! :D

*kitty kisses* to your new baby!!!

I love calicos! I have one that still lives with my parents . . . she's built really small, always has been. Maybe it's something with calicos.
