I dropped Minette off to her new family this morning. I am sad to see her go, but happy knowing that she's in a great place. They have LOTS of low windows for her to look through, She found one right away and sat contentedly. I was so certain my daughter was going to have a kitty go to college with her! I never thought Minette would be adopted, and here she is, at her new forever home!

She was great during her physcial. Very patient and tolerant. Which is great - if she can handle all the poking and proding the vet did without so much as a dirty look, she'll do fine with a sweet little girl who kept her distance from Minette and approached her cautiously.

Funny thing, as we got out of the car, Minette coughed up a huge hairball.

Oh, and her new name is Emerald.... Emmy for short. I like that. It fits her better than Minette does.
