Considering Beth's attachment to animals this summer, we shouldn't be surprised but Beth is obsessed with our new kittens. She's constantly asking to hold them or for help getting them out of their many hiding places. You see we have two scaredy cats. They hide from us and never come to us willingly. We figure it's a combination of personality and living with three kids under 5. It's a bit of a bummer at times but maybe best considering our family. And Beth doesn't care, she still wants to hold them and play with them all the time. So regardless of their nature, she has developed a way of catching them and carrying them and she holds them more than anyone. We don't know how she does it. She disappears into a bedroom and emerges later carrying a cat. Her only scratches are from holding them too near Adam when he screams and they flee with full force (as do many adults at the sound of his screeching!) She is developing a bond with them but if you ask her she'll tell you she still wants a dog :)
As for their names...Jason kept the name from the shelter. So our more outgoing (and that's not saying much) kitten is Chantelle. Beth's kitten (the super-shy skittish one) is Jasmine...this week. Last week she was Cinderella and next week...we'll keep you posted :)
