Kitten Hunt 2k8 becomes Kitten Hunt 2k9

11 1/2 years ago (HOLY SHIT!) my cat Mitch had to be put to sleep :( My best friend Lindsay was volunteering at the Healdsburg Animal Shelter at the time as a Cat Cuddler (um, best job ever?). To cheer me up she brought me with her one day and there was the most spastic, beautiful kitten. All white with one green eye and one blue eye. Sprite is still going strong, killing birds/squirrels, and being cuddly.

Almost 4 years ago I ventured back to the Healdsburg Animal Shelter in search of my very own kitten (Sprite apparently belongs to the family, pffft) and little Charlie came into my life. Well, little Charlie is now BIG Charlie and she is my love. Sadly, work keeps me away a lot longer than it used to and my poor social kitty is SO lonely. She desperately wants to be Sprite's friend but he is having none of that so thus . . . Kitten Hunt!

I have literally been to EVERY shelter in the area TWICE in the last 2 weeks and I'm still empty handed. Its freaking tiring and frustrating but I just can't find a kitten that is both playful AND social. I've decided social can be learned but for the most part NONE of the kittens have felt right. Not the way Charlie did. I didn't even WANT a girl cat but when I saw Charlie I knew that was it. And that is what I'll be hunting for *sigh*

BTW, Photobucket added all these fancy new editing options like STICKERS (see above) and GLITTER TEXT!!! Oh this is going to be so awesome!
