Not the greatest pic but this is my new kitty, 'Maow' (as we have taken to calling her, my daughter calls her that), or Sooty. She already loves sitting on the computer, must be cos its warm...

I have finally got a kitten! After wanting one for years and years... I have been contemplating it for a while now, as I wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do since we have 2 young kids. But as soon as I went to view these 3 kittens nearby, I fell in love. She's part Russian Blue, part domestic. She's black with white paws and a white belly. She's just gorgeous. I called her Sooty (I know, how original, lol) after a phonecall to my mum to ask what I should call her. I don't know how my husband is going to be about it though, he didn't particulary want one, but he said if I wanted one so desperately, I could go for it. He hasn't even seen her yet, I'll take her to pick him up after work. The kids love her too, Ava won't let her leave her sight, and Liam has been saying HELLO to her and waving his hand. I haven't let him get near her yet though! If any cat owners read this, any advice you have would be great!!! I'm so excited!
