She’s a wee thing still, just 2.5lbs and approximately 9 weeks old.

Looks little in Lorna’s hands!

Attack of the Killer Strawberry

A clerk at the post office where Lorna works told us that a kitten was at her husband’s body shop the other morning. She, the kitten, must have belonged to someone at some point because she is so tame. We took her to the vet Thursday and she checks out fine. Wormy but all kittens are.

So far her life is limited to Mike’s Big Boy Crate in the living room. We let her out today for a while (the dogs were outside) so she could explore and get into trouble. She did both just fine. She’s a quiet, calm kitten but I know that it will all come exploding out of her some day soon. She’s just not gotten to that chapter in the Manual yet.

We hadn’t come up with a name until Lorna said she caught herself thinking about “playing with Annie”. We already had a Calamity Jane so an Annie Oakley just seemed to fit.
