Sophie the kitten

One day while we were on a golf cart ride we heard a kitten meowing in the woods just outside our neighborhood (sounding clearly distressed). Eric pulled over, walked to the tree line, reached in and pulled out the tiniest little kitten. We stayed for a while looking everywhere for a mama kitty or any other siblings nearby and found nothing. We weren't entirely sure what to do so we brought the kitten home.

We took some pictures of her and posted on our neighborhood Facebook page to see if anyone was missing a kitten. We thought briefly about keeping her but realized quickly it was a commitment we were not ready to make with two little ones at home and (at the time) still getting little sleep. Thankfully we had a couple people reach out on Facebook saying they would be happy to take the kitten in. 

We enjoyed a little time with her before Eric took her to her new home. As you can imagine, Bonnie was over the moon to hold an actual real live kitten. 


We told her to "say cheese!" and she immediately grabbed kitty's face, pointed it at the camera and said so sweetly "Say cheese kitty!"

As excited as she was, she also handled the hand off surprisingly well. The new owners have named her Sophie and have since sent pictures. She is very happy in her new home.
