Kitty love

We love having the cats in the house. Tiger Lily is definitely the affectionate one and Darth Vader is a bit selfish and only comes to you when she wants attention. The two are almost always together.

Tiger Lily & Darth Vader

Tiger Lily & Darth Vader love laying on this throw. We got it as a gift when we lived in East Meadow and it has served many purposes. Not sure why the cats love it but they just lay down and stretch out on it, no matter where it is.

New Family Addition

We went and adopted a kitten from North Shore Animal League.

She is a black striped gray tabby, who Leah has named Tiger Lily.



It is a good thing both Matt and I agree that having a pet is a crucial component in having a family, when you have the space & time to care for it. I know that I feel lucky to have had the barrage of pets we had growing up, everything from our albino burmese python named Samantha to a wonderful toy poodle named Chop-C. We got tons of enjoyment and learned a ton about responsibility. The lessons that come from caring for another animal are invaluable.

Leah loves her. It is a 15 year committment and one we are happy to make.

Pete and Soda

Before Leah there was Pete, and then Soda.

I miss them.

Came across this picture of Soda and Pete together.
