They're baaaack!

I know I spread this picture around via email almost two years ago when Boo's second litter was born exactly one month after Nico:


It was hard but we gave them to a friend to place in a good home for us before we got too attached. She did place them together and we thought everything was fine (she is super particular about the homes she places cats at) but then we got a phone call...


The previous owners had to move shortly after the placement and she hasn't had time to find them a new home but she needs to get them out of her house because she's got too many rescue cats in after helping out another friend.

This is the picture I took yesterday:

The boys don't want to let them leave and they quickly wormed their way back into our hearts once more. Nico goes running after Leia screaming "Boo" (wrong cat sweetie) and he is totally smitten with her. He's actually been very gentle and she has been really good about putting up with him, especially considering she's only been back a couple of days. Lizzie is a bit more unsure of the whole thing but seems to settle in just fine once night hits and she can sleep on our heads.

So it looks like Lizzie and Leia will be staying with us from now on. Who could say no to these faces?

Insight from the Dalai Lama:
Meditation is needed in developing mental qualities. The mind is definitely something that can be transformed, and meditation is a means to transform it.
