Did he just go to a shelter and pick the first kitten he saw? Or was there something special about Tinky that caught his attention? Or did he know someone who had a cat who had kittens? We know she was a Christmas present for you, Sara, but how did he choose her for you?
*blushes*

Well *yes* I wanted a kitty for Christmas... and he said that the pound was out of kittens every time that he went up there. Well one day they called him and told him that they got some kittens in. Eric went up there with his mom so she could help him and there were I guess three in one cage and there was a little grey one climbing all over the place and he was going to get that one because it looked real healthy... BUT ... a couple of cages down was my little baby girl!.... He said she was all huddled up in the corner and was all dirty. His mom didn't want him to get her at first because she wasn't moving around and they didn't want to get me a sick kitty just in case it wasn't going to make it.... BUT... he said he had to get THAT ONE, that he KNEW it was the one for me! I don't know how he knew.. And they asked the guy at the shelter if they could hold her and he said she was so scared and jumped out of his hands and landed in her water bowl (makes me wanna cry ) (i bet she was so sad and scared) and he said that a couple of days later he went back up there to pick her up for me! She was cleaned up and had a bow on her collar when he gave her to me..... but they said she was soooo dirty and scared in that mean ol pound...... NOW SHE IS MY SPECIAL LITTLE BABY GIRL!!!!!!!! I LOVE HER (AND MY BIG OL JUPITER) SOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!
