Hi, I want to introduce you to our new family member, a fur baby called Ditsy Shadow.
She (at least we think she is) is 7 weeks old and is a persian cross British short hair.
She sleeps in a cat carrier at night in my bedroom and during the day her bed is either the sofa besides my eldest daughter or in a large box we turned into a play pen for her.
She has the playpen because we also have three adult fur babies who are four times her size.
My aim is to give you regular updates on her antics.

Day one, She spent most of the time asleep wrapped in a towel in my arms.

Day two, She had a pee in her litter box without having to be shown how. After her breakfast she played on my desk while in e mail checked and wrote my journal.

Day three, She's made herself at home, she chewed and smudged (with her nose on the watercolour drawing) the journal page I was on. She also had her first poo. OK so maybe that last bit wasn't interesting to you, but it does mean her little plumbing is all working ok.

Day four (today) So far she's commandeered a paintbrush as a toy, stepped in her milk and is now crashed out asleep and dreaming on my desk.
