New Kitty!!

On Sunday of last week, I acquired my very own kitten! She is the baby of a friend’s cat, whose owner wasn’t too keen on having more kitties to take care of. So Sunday afternoon I get picked up and taken to this friend’s place where I was able to choose a kitten! There were three to choose from, and I picked the shy-est and gentlest one of the three (the other two were a little too…shall I say…genki?! Well, I wouldn’t want to be getting them unless they came with a mute button put it that way! Plus no-one ever picks the shy kitty!). I picked her up and she snuggled into the small of my neck and stayed there! I knew it at once.  For this reason, I’ve decided to call her “Shizuka” 静花, which means ‘gentle blossom’. I picked out the characters to mean this specifically. (She told me that she’d like to be called ‘Shizu’, or perhaps ‘Zuzu’ by her close friends though hehe)
So far she has explored my little house and has a fondness for sprawling herself across the back of my neck…like a nice fur scarf….except not…\so much so that I may consider re-naming her parrot! She’s also serving to be a good investment (hmm…even though she was free!), as she heats my cold, wintery bed at night! Sometimes I think I’ve dropped some cotton wool on the floor only to find it’s her huddled in a ball…everyone now “awwwwwwwwwwwwww!”
The cutest, cuddliest thing you’ve ever seen!
