Why a Cat?? Pavlo joins our family August 2008

I'm not sure why I got a cat, I am very allergic, I can't breathe, and I've never liked them. Well, Parker has been bugging me for over a year to get a cat. The first reason he gave was that his Grandpa Sherman has one. The next reason is his friend Asher has one. Well, one afternoon we were going to Damascus area to drop off some stuff for girls camp, get Spencer's scouting blue cards, and return Isaac's blanky he left at our house from the Baptism. We arrived at Asher's and Issac's home. Parker played with their kitten Ranger almost the whole time we were there. I even enjoyed the cats antics and personality. Well, Nicole said she was going to Utah next week, and she could pick up one of Ranger's brothers for us. She called from Utah asking what one I wanted. So here we are - with a cat from Utah. Parker made me tell the family it was only his cat, so he is very possessive of the little animal. Splash, our Saint Bernard, tolerates him. As far as she is concerned, he is just another pesty kid. Pavlo is adjusting to our family, he runs from Parker, and Cooper loves him. Cooper has always been our kid that hates animals. When we had the goats, chickens, and rabbits - he would rarely touch them or play with them. Well, who would have known he is a cat man. Russ and I are scared that he might grow up and have a house full of cats and be that really weird man down the road. We wont' give up hope. So without any further adeu - presenting Pavlo - the white tiger kitten.
