We decided to add a new family member to our clan...

...And his name is Leo. He is of  feline descent. His full name is Leonitis; as in King Leonitis from the gladiator movie 300. He was born in August and we got him when he was barely 8 weeks old-in the middle of October. Craig and I decided it would be fun to have a pet around so I wouldn't be so lonely when Craig is gone at night. Leo is so much fun! It's fun to watch him discover things and be shown affection. This has led to us spoiling him... He has quite a few toys, as well as a kitty tower and he gets fed moist food at night (it's his favorite). It's a lot like having a toddler. He's very dependent on us and he wants our attention 24/7. I'd say it's good training for having a real child. Haha. We both have scratches all over our bodies as it's been quite an adventure to train Leo not to climb people's legs. He's growing like a weed- he used to fit in his food dish(below), but he's too big now. We think he will stay smaller than the average cat. We love Leo! It'd be hard not to love something so cute and fuzzy.

He has the cutest zebra stripes on his legs and little spots on his belly! He loves cuddling up with Craig for a nap.
