Bob the Second

I was bug hunting with my youngest niece the other night and what do we find in the yard...a little kitten.

It looked like it has just been weaned and it also looked like it hadn't eaten in days.

My sister lives in the country and people are constantly dumping dogs and cats out there. Seriously people take them to the pound. They may be put to sleep but at least it's humane and not like starving, or getting hit by a car, or getting eaten by coyotes.

Anyway we named the cat Bob the Second. As Bob the First has gone to kitty heaven. My sister and I are allergic to cats, so Bob the First lived outside as will Bob the Second.

Bob the Second now has a dog house to live in and lots of kitty food and water. And he has the Bob name. Bob the First lived a long, adventure-filled life: he was hit by a car twice, he got into numerous fights with other animals and he got to explore the great outdoors. He would also bring back presents in the form of rats and birds...such a nice kitty.

I hope that Bob the Second also lives a long, adventure-filled life.
