My Handsome Brady

I can't believe I have not told you earlier about my new addition to life. Brady - my kitty. I did not have any intentions on getting a kitty while here, since giving up Zeus and Aphordite was one of the most gut-renching things I could have done. But God had a different plan.

I really felt like something was missing without having a cat. They just make life better in every way, shape, and form, especially when you live on your own. I would be lying if I didn't play with the idea of getting a cat but I just couldn't do it.

Thankfully I have several friends who do have cats and I get to cat-sit when they are away. Brady was one of them. I always joked with my friends' children that Brady was my cat. Well they ended up having to leave Costa Rica due to a family emergency and Brady needed a home. That is how he became my kitty.

Brady has presented challenges. I feel bad since my place is so tiny and he was used to a big place and could play outside. Nights were rough with Brady and I decided that he would need another home. But that really didn't work out. (Thank goodness!) I had to finally allow him to go outside (which I hate having an outdoor cat.) But it's working and I'm learning to let him have his freedome outside, although it makes him super dirty!

God brought him to me at a time I really needed him and I'm so thankful to have him to come home to. I just now feel bad that I will be leaving him alone for 4 days as I travel. Hopefully he doesn't go too crazy!

Enjoy some more photos of my handsome kitty.
