Cat Update

As you know, we named our cat Adrian. But: we had some friends over the other night, and when one of them called the cat, we realized we had misnamed her, or, rather, that we had given her an incomplete name. Our friend's beckoning made immediately clear what the cat's full name should be. So now, if you want to address our feline friend by her full and proper name, it is: 'Yo Adrian'.

For example: right now, Yo Adrian is drinking out of her water dish on the other side of the room.

UPDATE: Oh, snap! I just glanced back at the comments from the previous post and realized that Kirk had already preceded all of us with the true name, so give the man some props as well.

Stray Cat Strut

Our landlord decided that he didn't want us to have a dog, but was ok with us getting a cat, so...today we did. The day's journey took us far and wide in the Philadelphia area. We started out at our place in West Philly, went to church out on the Main Line, then drove up to North Philly to an animal shelter (and went by Rasheed Wallace's high school on the way!); their pickins were a little slim, so we drove down to a pet store in South Philly that was hosting an adoption event with animals from that same shelter, and there we found the cat that we're now calling Adrian. Yes, that sounds like a funny name for a cat at the moment, but we're hoping to get a playmate for her at some point in the future and are planning to name him Rocky. She's a sweet little cat, and so far seems to like to be around people. Here are a few pictures of her.
