Well, I guess it had to happen eventually. Mathilda has been begging for a kitten for some (12 months) now. A tiny kitten came out from under the neighbors house a few months ago, but went back under after a few days. (Which I quickly thanked God for) The kids named it Tangerine. But he was not seen again. Then on Monday, this same cat came back out from under the neighbors house and up onto our porch and into our now cat’s bed, and hasn’t gotten out since. Needless to say, MJ has been feeding him and holding him, and begging to keep him, etc. I am still holding out hope he will go back under the neighbor’s house again, but we may have a new member of the Esplanade gang.
