We got Bug one night outside of the Giant Food Store in Falls Church, VA. The store is right across the street from the Skyline mall. We came out after shopping and there was an Hispanic man with a box of kittens. He said he was looking for good homes for them. Athena picked up the grey one, then the black one, then the grey one. She then decided that she would like to have the one that had the little tuxedo on him (although at the time, we weren't sure if it was a he or a she). I went back into Giant and bought some kitten food, but they didn't have litter boxes. I drove us home while Athena held the little kitten in her lap. He seemed happy enough.
We got our new kitty home and gave him some food. Athena, ever mindful of germs, felt that it would be a good idea to give him a bath. If any of you have ever tried to wash a cat, you'll know that they aren't exactly fond of such things. Our kitten took it all in stride though. We washed him and fed him and he seemed happy. We prepared some newspaper for him to use and quickly learned that only dogs fall for that trick. The next day we were able to get him a litter box which made him very happy. He practically filled it up.
