[QUOTE="mattsmom27, post: 32489, member: 50"] Oh my word! How you could have tricked your own mind into not making that adorable fuzzbutt your own instantly is a true testament to your strength [img]:wink:[/img] ... I wanna scoop him/her right up! Gosh I'm a sucker too. My kitties (2 girls, sisters) were NOT supposed to be 2! I wanted one, singlular, non-plural, yes ONE, kitten. A woman from a newspaper ad brought over the litter to my house to choose one. There were 3 kittens, 2 girls, one boy. The male had some sort of delay and his back legs didn't work right. I fell hard but knew I wanted a girl. Back then I was still speaking with my mother, who called while the kittens were all here. She fell in love over the phone with the idea of nursing the male and helping him navigate with his leg issues. That left the 2 girls for me to choose from.
