“Dallas” (the cat)
Here are a couple pics of the newest addition to our family:
We’ve loved and hated him a million times since bringing him home Thursday; we’ve decided to find him a new home, then give us all a few more days time to adjust about that many times as well.
Neither one of us have ever had a cat before, so it’s definitely an alien presence in our home. He seems to enjoy dumping the dogs’ water bowl over every chance he gets; he likes playing with the Christmas tree; and he must think potted plants have a big “TOY” label on them.
The dogs seems to be adjusting well. Khaki basically avoids Dallas. This morning Samoa started “kind of” playing with him – he would chase her, then she’d chase him; but neither were sure what to do when they caught the other. Dallas started playing with some balls this morning.
I think it’s safe to say that the jury is definitely still out on this one. He’s a beautiful, loving cat; I’m just not sure I enjoy having white cat hair all over everything, and, the concerns I mentioned before still hold.

I’m so not sold on this whole deal. He’s a nice cat and all… but there’s so much cat hair. And we’ve spent about an hour so far today applying and reapplying “soft claws” to protect the furniture.
