I went up to the airport (hour and a half away) tonight to pick up my folks. They've been on a weeks' holiday in Beliz. I got there a little late, I was caught up in the Criminal Minds epsiode where Reid is kidnapped, so I parked and went in to find them. My dad was at the baggage claim and easy to spot - he's over six feet - but couldn't see my mum. She's closer to five feet so I didn't think anything of it until I hugged my dad and asked where she was. He said she was walking around looking for me and she had my present.

My parents named her Zericote (zer-A-coat-A) and I suggested Zeri for short. They think she's about four months old but I'm not buying it. She's too small and still has her tiny little kitten teeth.
Nina is pissed as hell that there's another cat in the house (my folks have two that she's only just starting to get used to) so this brings us up to four. And they haven't even done more than seen each other from across the hall because Zeri hasn't had all her shots yet and we don't want Nina getting sick. I feel like a doctor because I have to scrub down when I'm done playing with the kitten so my cat doesn't get sick. I'm just glad its only for a few days.
