New Beginnings

I've never been much of an animal person. When my friends dreamt of puppies and kittens I was thinking about other things... cookies mostly. However, when V and I bought our new house eight months ago it came with an unexpected surprise... three cats! It seems the old homeowners were feedings the outdoor cats and then just abandoned then when they moved. I tried for several weeks to find a shelter that would take them but most of them weren't accepting cats and then one that was had a three month waiting period. We couldn't not feed them and hope they found a new home because they had been hanging around the house for the last six months when the house was empty scrounging for food and eating anything they caught. So, we adopted them. Or they adopted us. Basically now I'm obsessed with our cats and I watch them from the window while I'm baking... cupcakes.
