Meet Joe

Meet Joe, the little creature bringing me one step closer to being a crazy cat lady. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Because Joe? He is cute! We have him because we are gigantic suckers for things that are small and furry (and cute!). We saved him from the streets, indirectly through Amy, whose cat hated poor little Joe.

Joe doesn’t photograph terribly well, since is both black and blurry. Seriously, he is either sleeping or in FULL ON CRAZY mode. There was a bit of hissing from the girls they first saw him, especially Blackie. Surprisingly to us, Joe can fit under our bedroom door. So much for keeping them separate for a day or two. However, everyone is cool with him now. It’s pretty fun to watch Blackie stare at Joe as he bats at her and tries to play.

    Oh goodness. He is *so* cute – it almost makes me want to get a kitten right now! (Then I think of the neurotic dog, and I change my mind…)

    Awwwwwwwww! I want one! But alas, I have terrible allergies! :(

    You and your damn cats. Didja see KB’s blog? We’re mentioned in the blog of a journalist for the Gaurdian (British newspaper).

    awww. I want another kitten. D’ya think I’d *really* get disowned if I brought one home? Hmmm…maybe I’ll get another grey one and call it Lint

    Does he have a favorite yarn yet? :)

    Cuuute! He looks like my Franz did when he was little.

    I already met Joe! But great photos. He’s a doll and a fun little cuddler. Good on Amy for picking him up – good on you and Rob for taking him!

    Watch out for those razor-sharp teeth!

    OMG what an adorable little meowchi! I really, really, really re the day I got born into a family of cat-allergic losers. (OK, they aren’t losers. But they are stopping me from having a kitten.)

    Oh – he’s adorable!

    I usually manage to avoid having my “biological clock” start back up again whenever I see a picture of a cute baby. But a picture of a cute kitten? Fugeddaboutit!

    My husband will be cursing you tonight, as I start pestering him for another cat…

    :)

    So cute! Good of you and Rob for giving him a home.

    AWW! So teeny tiny. :)

    I’m soo glad y’all were willing to take him. I think walking outside with him on my shoulder was the only thing y’all needed. ;) I’m gonna have to come over soon and scratch some ears. :)

    Yo girly!! Hee hee, you’ll find that having three cats is no different than having two. What is the kitty limit for a crazy cat lady? Does only have two cats make you a regular cat lady and three make you crazy??? I wonder if 4 make you insane cat lady?

    Awwwww! Congrats on the new addition! He’s absolutely precious (and I love the name–that’s my little black dog’s name–it just suits him).
