Bates Family +1

You will all be happy to know that we have added to the Bates Family. A girl this time.

She's about 6 pounds and covered in fur and is adept at saying "meow".

We are in negotiations on the name, but some top contenders are "Ember", "Emerald", "Amy". We had to put our foot down on names derived from Pokemon characters (although Rosie was a good suggestion). It seems that J, Ryan and I can agree on any number of names, but P feels strongly and objects to most names.

This little bundle of fur is a 1 year old ivory short hair tabby who seems really sweet and not completely freaked out by the dog. They both spent the night in our room (kitty under the bed and Maggie on her usual bed), so we considered that a success.

Did you think I was talking about something else when I said we had added to the Bates family?
