We've Adopted!!

Lately Rob and I have been feeling that it is time to expand our family. After days and days of extensive research, we've finally adopted............two kitties!! Please meet Macy and Elli - our two new loves! After a week or so of searching for just the right cat, Rob and I came across these two sisters at the Eau Claire Humane Association. These two four-year-old girls were surrendered to the humane association in February when their owner had to move. We impulsively filled out an online application for the cats and Rob received a phone call from ECHA the very next day. While I was at work on Thursday, Rob headed to Eau Claire to "check them out." After spending a couple hours in Eau Claire, he called to let me know he was heading back to Holmen empty handed because the ECHA required a one-night waiting period for taking the cats home. We had decided we'd head to Eau Claire on Saturday instead. I arrived home after school yesterday (Thursday) and Rob helped me carry in all of the kitty supplies I had bought in anticipation of our new family member (or two.) As we walked upstairs with the supplies, I noticed that the bathroom door was shut with the light on. I immediately suspected something was up. I peeked inside and sure enough, these two sweet girls were looking up at me! What a nice surprise!

We can't wait to get to know the personalities of these sweet girls as they become more and more comfortable in their new home!

Have a great weekend!!
