I took Jack to the neighborhood playground two weeks ago. It was the first nice day in a while. Halle went too, to soak up some sun while doing her school work. Jack was the only kid on the playground. Out of nowhere came this pretty little kitty up to the slide. He wanted to see Jack. I called the kitty over to pet it. He was the sweetest cat ever. I'd had a lot of cats growing up, and immediately I knew this kitten was special. I'm usually not a sucker for strays, but this little thing was obviously lost and I couldn't just leave a little kitty all out by himself. Halle also instantly fell in love, so we took him home to give him some food, with the intentions of taking him to the vet so they could find a home for him.
Arden came home from school, and she too was enamored with the kitten. Of course she thought he needed a name. Halle and I both independently came up with the name Parker, since we found him at the park. So of course that had to be his name!
Jack loves Parker, too. This cat is so sweet that he just lays there while Jack drags him around. If a cat will let a two year old choke him by the neck while picking him up then you know the cat's a keeper. There's only one problem: BRIAN. Brian doesn't hate cats, he actually kind of likes them, but he's very allergic. The first few days were okay and Brian's allergies didn't flare up, but as he hung around Parker more he started having problems. I told Halle the kitty had to go for Daddy's sake, and she started crying. It's a hard predicament because we love the kitty. So Brian said that the cat could stay as long as he kept his distance. We're hoping that it works out; otherwise the kitty has to go and we'll all be so sad. Most likely, he'll have to be an outside cat.
