Our Classroom Mascots


November 10, 2007


Reluctantly, we had to get rid of our previous cat that we had adopted. He was a male Tabby, Spike. We adopted him from a no-kill shelter. He had many issues that our family couldn't take anymore. We put the inevitable on hold. Praying about it and waiting for our daughter, Coco to give us the OK. He became more aggressive and neurotic. We finally had to explain to her that he needed to go. We explained to her that we tried to love him the best we could but he just wasn't willing to return the affection. God provided a great learning opportunity in this.


About three weeks later we adopted to kittens. Two brothers from a very affectionate home with a mother who loved and cared for them. They are so lovable and the difference is like night and day. Our daughter Coco says it was hard for our old cat, Spike because he was an abandoned kitten and lived at the shelter. The kittens we have now had a mother that cared for and loved them. She is so right. Here are few pictures of our two rascals...
