Lily The Wonder Kitten
She leaps through the air. She tumbles. She jumps from high above. She's Lily the Wonder Kitten. We adopted her from the Animal Refuge League in Westbrook http://www.arlgp.org/
It's been several years since we've had a pet. My husband produces Pets of The Week:
http://www.yourtownscable.com/petsoftheweek.html So, every week he would come home and tell me about the adorable animals he had seen and threatened to bring one home. So, before he did that I decided that I wanted some say in the matter. We were talking about adopting a cranky old curmudgeon of a cat. Well, Lily the Kitten has remarkable marketing skills. As we were walking around the shelter, she stuck her little paws out of her cage at me and rolled around adorably. How could we resist? Now our house is littered with cat toys and Lily has become the pampered princess. We take more photos of her than our sons. The above photo is the latest as she sdmires her video on our computer screen in the LOL cat style http://icanhascheezburger.com/
If you can't adopt an animal but would still like to help, there are many different ways to aid your local animal shelter. Many shelters are in desperate need of food, funds and volunteers. The Animal Refuge League has a wish list with everthing from hay and canned food to old towels and blankets: http://www.arlgp.org/support/wish/holiday%20wish%20list.pdf
