Our New Cat, Bianca

So we were looking into getting a guinea pig or 2, we think they are so adorable, but they need hay & I'm allergic to grass/hay. So we decided to not get them. Anthony said if you really want another pet why don't we just get another cat. So that's what we decided. We went to Salem Animal rescue league in Salem, NH & we picked out a cat named Crumpet. She is 1 years old & seems really sweet. She came up from SC. They have a bunch of high kill shelters there & in other places in the south, GA & TN. It makes me so sad that they are like that & this actually happens in our country. People from NH & MA go down there & get as many animals as they can & bring them back here. I'm so glad that they do that. I think it would be really cool to go with them & rescue the animals. It's a long trip for the pets. They said that Crumpet was in a truck for 16 hours. So about her name, we didn't totally love it & Anthony was whining because he never gets to name anything (lol), so we let him pick an Italian name & we chose Bianca. It means white in Italian. We might keep Crumpet as her middle name, but they said that they just named her that before they sent her up here, so it hasn't always been her name.

This was in the shelter when we 1st met her, so I thought that was pretty special that she was sniffing/kissing Tara.

This was this morning when we were adopting her. She was laying on some papers on the desk.

She hasn't met Kizmet yet, we have to introduce them slowly, so it might be a few days. We have Bianca in our bedroom & there's a door that goes to the bathroom where we are keeping her cat box.
