The New Kit in Town






     Welcome to our new kitten, Parker.  She was born on March 29, and arrived in our home on June 15 of this year.  We named her after the character "Parker"  portrayed by Beth Riesgraf in the tv series "Leverage" as seen below.





Parker the person is an extremely energetic woman who likes showing up in unusual places, often upside down, who likes to steal things.

Parker the kitten is an extremely energetic cat who likes showing up in unusual places, often upside down. While she has been known to play with things that aren't technically hers, she hasn't actually stolen anything that we know of.

I actually posted this a month ago, but apparently, the system, then in transition to a new format, ate my post and never put it up.  Which also tells me I need to be more attentive to this place.

So today, we're off to the vet to get her the first in a series of kitty shots each month (and yes, there are moments when I'd LIKE to shoot her...), and make sure she's in good medical condition.

The picture at the top was taken pretty recently.  Here's a couple more pictures of her taken within a day of getting her.


So there you have it.  We are once more owned by a cat.  Yeah, as aggravating as it can be when she gets rambunctious, she's worth it.
