Ok people. Board has been just a little too quiet and your hostie needs a little more excitement so:::where did you get your very first kitten (not the family cat you had as a child) but the very first one of your very own that you chose all by yourself or with your spouse. I will go first since this was my bright idea. My first kitten was Misty, a grey tabby and white kitten with green eyes and the greatest purr. Oh, we had cats when I was a kid (only so my parents would not have to get us a puppy) but they were outdoor and didn't live very long. I just thought cats died real young...hey..I was a kid. My hubby and I had dogs, he bred them. No cats, he was allergic. But I had to move about 1 hr away to go to college to further my education. My german shephard, well, he lasted about a week in the apartment before he decided that the maintanence man might be edible so he had to go home. I missed my kids, my spouse and my dog. Spouse suggested a cat. So off I went, now if you know very little where do you go to get a cat? A pet store so I went there and there was this adorable little kitten and when I picked her up she put her paws around my neck and purred and that was it, she was on sale for 19.00. Best bargain of my life. She wrapped me around her paw and here we are 20 some years later with 18 cats, 1 dog and even a hamster who belongs to one of the cats as a pet. Ok, your turn! Tell us about your first kitten!!!!!
