New family member, we adopted a Dominican

(Posted by: Doug)

You read it right, after much weighing and considering, we've decided to adopt. Matter of fact our baby's home safe already. We kept quiet about this until we made our final decision/everything went through, but our new baby's now home safe and seems very happy with her new home.
We adopted her through a local orginization that helps fight the massive homeless population by finding homes for babies. We're already very much in love with our little gatita, and are currently figuring out her name. For now, though, enjoy some shots of her.


Happily napping with mom.


She's a cutie.

Her favorite spot in the apartment. She can nap but still keep an eye on all of the weird things mom and dad are always doing.

Some perspective on her size, I don't have big hands.

Still a bit awkward on her feet, she was 4 weeks old when we got her. Unfortunately mom passed away shortly after child birth and our mona was left to fend for herself.

Another shot with mom.


And one taking a nap on pops.


Pretty dirty when she came to us, we gave her a bath.
Note: she does not like baths.

(p.s. Stace still needs to catch up on this thing and do some posting. To all of her fans, I've been bugging her about it.:P)

  1. Oh how precious! =) What did you name your little gatita? Stace---I had a feeling it'd be an orange kitty. :) We are both quite partial to las gatitas oranjas! I'm so happy for you, from one animal person to another. She couldn't be a luckier kitty than to find you two!

  3. In my reader I couldn't see but just the top half of the picture so I really thought you had adopted a baby. :) Cute kitty and yay for rescuing, rescued pets are the best.
