Hello Everyone!
This post is dedicated to my fluffy bundle of joy. Happy 5 months Jerry!
Just before Christmas me and my family got a kitten. At the time this little cutie was only 11 weeks old, he is now 5 months old and has grown so much since we first got him. If it was up to me I would stop him from growing and keep him little forever, but in a nice non-mean way. :)
In the short time we've had him, you would definitely know we had a kitten as he definitely lives up to the name. He has attacked and broken many toys, more or less ripped apart his scratching post and completely pulled down the Christmas tree twice whilst trying to climb it to grab a bauble. Along with those, he also likes to jump up the curtains and hang from them, my dads curtains are.... well very holey and well not very good at keeping your privacy. And the nets in my room are non existent after he pulled them down. The amount of times we've told him off, and still he keeps on, but I'm sure (hoping) that when he's older he will learn not to do it. Such a little pickle, who I love so very much.
The reason we got a kitten was because sadly our previous cat, Tom, died suddenly of renal failure. Not too sure what it is exactly all I know is that it made him very sad and he just didn't want to do anything so my dad made the difficult decision to save him and let him be put down. With much sadness and pain for weeks, we decided that we are a family who needs a pet (as we have always had at least one animal around) and once again needed a pet to fill that space. This is where Jerry came into our lives, and not quietly! aha The reasoning behind his name, which was my sisters choice, was that our last cat was called Tom (so Tom & Jerry- like the cartoon), we used to have a dog called Ben (so Ben & Jerry- like the Ice Cream), and we had guinea pigs called chocolate and cookie which ties all the names together. Clever thinking there Jess!
This little bundle of joy has brought our family so much happiness and laughter. Even when he does something bad, he finds a way to counteract it and do something silly, putting us all in hysterics. Also recently we decided to put him in a collar as he will be allowed outside soon, he really did not like this accessory, actually taking it off within hours of first putting it on. After putting it back on multiple times, each time he managed to find a way to get it off. He has now just given up on the idea of not wearing it and realised that no matter how many times he squirms out of it, we will put it back on.

Do you guys have any pets? Have they done any funny/naughty things that always seem to put a smile on your face? Let me know. :D
Lots of Love, x
