I picked my son up from school yesterday and took him to petco. I wanted to surprise him with adopting a kitten. I contacted the lady in charge of the pet rescue and she met us up there. We saw two kittens and my son loved this one.
He was bottle fed at 10 days old and is the most loving kitten! I picked my son up from pre k today, walked in the house and the kitten ran straight to him. I'm so glad they have bonded so far. My son knew immediately he wanted this one too. He is 12 weeks old.
He also is doing well with my little poodle, they are already playing together. But, is a different story with my senior dog. Its getting there tho. It is so funny. My bigger dog will try to intimidate him. Georgie will arch his back and puff up his tail and strut right past her without a worry. Looks like Georgie is trying to rule the roost already lol

Awww, what a great picture. They both looks so cute and they really do appear to have bonded. Tuxedo cats are the bestest cats. The most devoted wonderful cat I ever had was a tuxedo cat. He was my special boy. I have had loads of wonderful cats since that have broken my heart when I had to say goodbye, but there was just something extrordinary about my Jez cat.

How darling!!! We could never have pets when raising our son because of his allergies. When he was about 11 years old a mother cat decided to have her kittens in a barn, so became accustomed to playing with them outside, taking allergy medicine. Today he is 35 living on 20 acres, 2 cats, 3 kittens, six dogs (includes their 3 AKC malamutes) a wife and a son plus the BIL, girlfriend and MIL living with them. Raising your child with a pet helps bring out the love, affection and companionship. Congratulations on such a lucky boy and cute kitten! :thumbup:
