Caturday!

At Easter this year the children started a concerted cat campaign.  Today that campaign ended in victory.

Sooty a black 2 year old cat joined our house!

We had an inspection by the RSPCA who deemed us a suitable home. They had warned us that she was shy and might retreat for a few days until she was used to her new surroundings.

We brought her home at lunchtime,  she was timid at first and seemed to be looking for a secluded spot.

She found it..the chimney!!!! She spent most of the afternoon and early evening sitting just up inside the chimney. A lot of soot and dust followed her down.

We managed to lose her twice this evening; black cats are invisible when they are under beds.

The girls were a little disappointed today as they were expecting the cat to settle and be purring on their laps by the end of the day.

I am sure she will bring a lot of joy!
