Magic Happens


After cat-sitting a little orange Tabby for over a month, I became attached to the idea of having a cat and Aethan was fascinated by the whole thing. After the loaner cat went home, I asked Aethan if he would like a cat of his own. I showed him some pictures off of the Humane Society's website and he decided very matter of factly that he was going to have a black cat. I took him to the shelter several days later and we picked out a 3 year old black cat named "Magic." It turns out that this cat is almost more interested in Aethan than Aethan is interested in him. He follows Aethan around and even sits next to the bathtub when Aethan is in it. He's sweet and loving, very vocal, and loves to be around people. I think this will be a benefit to Aethan, as it teaches him how to be ok with things he cannot predict or control. The smiles are amazing too!
