the BEAST

So, before we got married Richard talked about getting a cat. Of course I told him he could have one, he wanted one so bad...but then this last week, Wednesday, he decided now was a good time. Even though our house is still not totally organized. So I was coming home from work on Wednesday and Richard told me to stop at Wal-mart and he would meet me there. We got all this stuff for the cat. Oh man! Richard was way excited and me...not so much!
His name is Mr. Big...and it is that for a reason. Although we have resorted to calling him Pig, or The Pig. I don't know why, but that is his name. So as I said he is called Mr. Big for a reason...he is big. He is three years old, and is a good looking cat. I am still getting use to him, but Richard loves him. But I think the cat likes me more than Richard...hehehe!
I am getting use to having the cat around. The first morning (Thursday morning), I went downstairs and he had left a surprise for us on the carpet...um...yeah! I think we figured out he was sick to his stomach, he didn't eat much yesterday. But he has done good so far, uses his litter box and everything.
I am learning to love this cat. His favorite spot at night is right at my feet, on the corner of the bed. The first night I woke up with him there, it scared the livin daylights out of me. But he is great. It is just the whole pet thing, I am not use to it.
I will post pictures soon of this cat, the BEAST, as we call him. Hopefully we will have some fun stories to tell in the future of our first "baby"...
