      I love the look of Moon.

      But, personality trumps appearance. I'd, of course, pick the lover.

              nice names. Some friends named their cats Puss and Boots - which I helpfully renamed Bus and Pootsy.

                They're gorgeous, Mik. I really miss having a cat around the place.

                I was only joking

                  Yeah, I got up this morning to find my daughter's cat (visiting) outside my door eager to greet me and get pets. it was nice. We have bonded this past week.

                      Probably not a Sheltie with cats. Herding dogs are not the best choice. Maybe a sporting breed of some sort.

                        @mik Or some kind of caretaking type, like a St. Bernard? Okay, a small St. Bernard.

                        Probably you don't want a Jack Russell. "Ohboy, cats! I love cats! I could play with cats all day! Here, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty . . . "

                          No, Terriers are out. They were bred to go after small prey like that. As are St. Bernards - friendly but too big. The big breed I like is Swiss Mountain Dogs.

                            That's too bad, I know how much you love them. At any rate, I would imagine that acclimating them all early would generally be a good idea?

                              We were told not to get a cat with a Jack Russell, as if the cat gets stuck in a door or something, and makes the squeaking noise, the J.R. will completely forget how much he loves her and go into grab-and-shake mode.

                              Which, it has to be said, ours does with abandon. We have been within a whisker of homemade rabbit pie a couple of times.

                                Honey and Moon will be at an adoption event today and we are going. It is also MFR's birthday so you know how this turns out.

                                  What is an adoption event? Is it like an auction? (I hope not.)

                                  Happy Birthday to YFR.

                                  And yes! good luck at the event.

                                    They hold them all the time at big box pet stores. Rescues and no-kills bring a few pets and try to drum up some adoptions.

                                    Saw another kitten we liked this morning.. Skye

                                      Moon came home with us. Very sweet cat. Honey and Skye were both taken.

                                      Now she's hiding under a dresser.

                                        (Nodding.) She's acclimating. In no time, she'll own the house. 🙂

                                        A shame about Honey and Skye. But if there's one true thing in this world, it's that when it comes to cats, there are plenty of fish in the sea.

                                        Wait, what?

                                          Yeah, we brought her upstairs now to get used to our room as her sanctuary.

                                          I think we are going to rename her Luna.
