Naughty Kitty FREE to Good Home

Yes, Cleo is cute. But she is also a naughty kitty! Here is a list of the things in my home that she has ruined/torn/scratched:
  • Cayman's gigantic green beanbag  --  has a hole chewed in it.
  • Wallpaper in master bathroom  --  shredded in window area.
  • Cayman's favorite stuffed animal, given to her by Uncle hours after she was born  --  nose chewed off. (This one is SERIOUS. Nobody messes with Teddy!)
  • New Balance walking shoes  -  shoestrings chewed up.
I have always left her in the bathroom during the day while we are at work (don't worry...I'm not confining her to a tiny space...it's a HUGE bathroom). However, today I am testing her and letting her roam free in the house. I hope she behaves (ie, sleeps all day)!
And by the way, we're not REALLY giving her away! She's much too cute!

My Dad

This isn't going to be a post about the drama queen. This one will instead focus on her grandfather, my dad. We found out that he has a serious issue with his lungs. It's either lung cancer or mesothelioma...the tests next week will tell us more. I haven't told Cayman yet. I wanted to get a bit more info first. I don't believe in keeping things like family illness from children. It just has to be explained in a way that she can understand. She's going to be real worried about her "Poppie". They watch Spongebob together and have snoring contests...he's just a lot of fun.
Pop is a great dad and an amazing grandfather...and we are going to rally together and beat this! If he can survive what us kids put him through, then he can survive this!!
I love you,Pop!
