So we go up to my mother’s house in the interior of BC to pick up our son this weekend, and along the way up we talk a lot about getting another cat. Once we got to my mom’s and mentioned it to her, she put a call into her friends at the SPCA and found out that there were three being fostered by the local pet store.
On Saturday we went down and we saw three kittens asleep in a box behind the glass. Lila stuck her face up to the glass and the cutest little calico cat peeked out, looked right at her, and jumped up and went straight to the glass and nose to nose with her! I guess we can say that she picked us! 
She’s the cutest thing, and even her and Joey have been playing very well – albeit a bit rough.
So what did we call her? Don’t laugh, but her name is “n00b” or “n00bie” in a cute way. Sometimes we even call her n00blet. Yes, as Bryton put’s it, “That’s an ‘n’ and ‘two zeroes’ with a ‘b’.”
Paul says:
That kitty looks so sweet. I have a longing to get a male calico sometime. They are rare though so it will have to be when I have a little more money I can drop on it.
