We found a kitten on Sunday night in our church parking lot. Although I was going to take him to the Lexington Human Society on Monday, he was instead adopted by our friends Todd & Emily.
Dooley, named after a character in Jan Karon’s Mitford book series, is only 1.1 pounds, which means that between Eldar, Avalon and Maximus, Randy and I live with 35 times that amount of cat. I think that officially tips the scales for us on the “crazy cat people” measurement towards “eccentric” as opposed to “normal pet owners.”
I took some pictures when we went to visit last night and Dooley seems to be adjusting well.

So cute!! I love kittens!
