"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. " -Helen Keller

He's settled in and taken over...

Joey's little kitten, Butterball, has settled right in and he fits in with the crowd. He likes to watch video games...
He tried to steal Gabe's chili from right out of his dinner bowl. And, he's already staked claim on a bed...
Hehehehehe, Butterball's kitty bed supports a variety of sleep positions too.

It's a good thing Freddy is as mild mannered as he is because Butterball has adopted him and feels perfectly at ease in following him and climbing all over him.

Joey is doing better but we are still having moments when the loss of his Max hits him hard. It's nice to know my boy can love so deeply but it sucks seeing him in pain.

Wow! My cats never react that well to a new member of the family. EVER. I am impressed. And that is, by the way, insanely adorable. I feel for you guys. I hope this new guy comes to be just as big a part of the family.

I'm happy to hear that Butterball is fitting in so well. The new little furball will never take Max's place in Joey's heart (or yours), but I hope that in time he will help fill the void.

What a sweet kitty. And an even sweeter boy. Hugs to Joey.

Glad the new kitty is settling in well. One of my two cats is constantly trying to lay on and sleep on the other and I have lots of pictures of it. Cracks me up.
Hugs to Joey. It's so hard losing one of your furbabies.

Aww, so cute. Glad he's settled in. It's so hard to lose a family pet- it's been years since I lost my cat Katinka, and every now and then I still cry about it. I feel for you all, it's hard.
