On a side note, Widget has a nasty little kitten cold. You don’t understand the true joys of pet ownership until you have a kitten with a stuffed nose sniffling directly in your ear all night because she insists on sleeping on your pillow. Its time she got acquainted with her new vet…
Note: I promise not to become one of those bloggers who does nothing but blog about their cat, but I felt it was necessary to post the results of the kitten-naming.

Cats look like rats. Cats were probably invented by the devil.
In the field of disgusting pets, cats are mostly rivaled by those fish with legs that can walk out of water, and hissing Madagascar cockroaches. Oh, and rats.
