Since my nest is officially empty -- Casey is all settled in Philadelphia now -- I thought I needed a little fuzzy somebody to keep me company. Enter Ozzie -- my adorable three-month old kitten. I went through a local rescue organization (OC Small Paws) who did everything but have me give blood to make sure I would be a good cat parent. I had to give two references that were called and grilled interviewed about my pet ownership history. Luckily I passed the test and brought the little guy home Saturday. He's very social and follows me around most of the day. Of course, I'm totally smitten and I can't believe I waited this long to get another cat. I will try to keep the cute kitty photos to a minimum!
