A little something Mu


We would like to welcome the newest member of our family Mu.  On Saturday Nathan asked me to go out to the orchard with him to cut back weeds from around the sprinklers that he was going to be running later that day. We drove out there in the jeep and parked on the west side of the orchard near one of the neighbors houses.  The neighbors were out in there garden when we pulled up.  He held up two kittens in his hands and asked if we wanted one.  I said the famous last words.... I just want to look!  After about an hour of talking to the neighbors and cuddling with the gray one. We found out the the kittens were abandoned by their mother. The gray kitten just loved cuddling and she purred almost the whole time I held her.  After sending a few text messages to Karen to see if they would mind adding a kitten to the five cats we have.  I said we would take the kitten home, I think Nathan was very surprised.  He is the cat person out of the two of us but, well I just couldn't say no to that adoreable face.  So, she helped me cut back the weeds from around the sprinklers and then we headed home.  She absolutely loves to cuddle, sleep on your lap, neck, stomach, or shoulder.  She does have a bit of a foot thing, but she is so cute and sweet.  She makes the cutest little mewing noises and that how we decided on her name.  Mu, like the greek letter and it sounds just like what she says.
