Toby Fletcher

This is our baby, Toby Fletcher. As mentioned in the previous post, he is a long haired, adorable orange and white Tabby. Travis is pumped because he matches his "pet cat" he has in his game, World of Warcraft. .. Just kidding though. He is super cuddly, all he wants to do is sit with you and purr.. constantly!! He is a lean, mean, purring machine. I don't think he has stopped since we picked him up at the pet store, which is why we picked him up. We have been wanting a kitty for Travis for a while now, as he is very lonely up here in Fort McSucky, as Christy so aptly descibred it. He is pretty leery of his new surroundings, and when we put him down he quickly hides under the bed or in the closet. But we set him up a space in the bathroom with everything he needs, and he is slowly getting a comfort zone in there. He plays with his mouse and ball toys, and he just took his first pee (in the litterbox, yay!), and is eating on his own right now. Baby steps, people! When we went to the pet store on thursday, he wasn't there, only 2 of his extremely skiddish, but cute brothers were there. He was sick and getting personal care from someone, so as a result, he is a lot more used to people, being handled, cuddlier and actually loves to be brushed. So far he has been quiet, and we are hoping for a quiet night tonight. By the way Jen, we thought of Bailey for a name, I love it, but one of our friends named he baby girl that. So that was out of the running. Travis really wanted Leroy, but it brought to mind an online World of Warcraft video where a guy yells LEERRROOYYY JEEENNKIIINNNNNSSS.... Very dumb in my opinion, Hilarious in Trav's. The bad news is that I have to go home tomorrow!! And leave my two babies behind! AAANND, I forgot my crying sunglasses!! I guess I'm just bound to get a lot of strange looks on the flight and drive home.
