Viktor
Today Bill and I went down to the Atlanta Persian & Siamese Rescue to see if we could find a new kitty to bring home. We knew we needed a boy kitty - too much feline estrogen last time almost caused a fight to the death between Tasha and Midori.
We were in luck. They had a truckload of kittens. Well, when we got there they had about 15 kittens. When we left they had probably close to 40. There was one little sweetie in particular that looked like her cute little face belonged on a calendar. She curled up and fell asleep in my arms. These kittens were so cute it should be illegal. However, we figured Midori would look at those tiny six week old kittens and see a tasty appetizer.
There was another little sweetie - not a kitten, but an adult flat-faced persian - that just captured my heart. She was a mess. She was the ugliest little cat you've ever seen. She has a face like a bulldog and is missing an eye. But she was so sweet and gentle and fragile that she just begged to be loved and protected. Unfortunately, female AND Midori would tear the sweet thing to pieces. It broke my heart to leave her behind.
Bill found and immediately bonded with a lovely gray kitty, about 18 months old. His fur is like an angora sweater and he LOVES to talk. We ended up adopting the little cutie and named him Viktor. He just looks like he needs a regal Russian name.
Viktor is an absolute doll. He is SO affectionate. As soon as we got him home he started purring and hasn't stopped. Midori seems to like to him. Tasha's pissed, but she's always pissed so no big deal.
So, we're now a family of five.
