A Crymson Life

whatta week!

What a week it’s been so far and I haven’t even finished blogging about the weekend. On Monday both Chris and I caught colds, so I’ve been trying to find the energy after work to do a million things and nothing is getting done except playing with our new kitten. Yep, the last thing I’ve been meaning to write about is bringing home our little bugger of a kitten on Saturday. Chris and I have discussed getting a cat/dog/both for a while. We decided now’s not the right time for a dog, but it’s great timing for a kitten. We went up to the pet store and they had a adoption agency there, and this little grey guy went crazy over this little toy we gave him. We got him home and he spent the entire weekend under the couch. He wouldn’t even come out to eat, the pic is from Sunday so its taken under the couch. He is slowly getting braver and has now explored the stairs and is just starting to go in the kitchen and dining room. Last night was the first time he discovered Willow. She did pretty good scaring him off, I guess he needs to work on stealth. Tonight we take him to the Vet, for a check up. Monday night we came up with the name Orion, we like it a lot. He’s definitely our little hunter. It doesn’t really roll off the tongue at all, so we started calling him Ori for short. Ori is the abbreviation for Orion. He doesn’t really seem to respond to any of our ideas. So until he lets me know what his name really is, we’ll call him Orion.
Not much has been happening bead wise lately. They are Orion’s favorite thing, even more so than the bird. I haven’t been able to focus on lacing, colds and lacing don’t go well together. So I’ve been stinging orange beads to make some more pumpkins.

His eyes are more of a yellowy green, the flash was making them change colors.  He did so well at the Vet yesterday, and he’s healthy.  Last night he jumped on the bed and slept next to us for a bit, before waking up and playing with our feet while we slept.  Then he was kicked out.  big surprise

Poor kitten must have been very afraid. Meanwhile, he might have understood that he does not need to fear anything when he is with you! Orion ... Good choice! smile
