our recent loss...but a new beginning

We lost our first little monkey "Sam" this year and I was completely devestated. She was my little furry companion when Brad was working, so needless to say it was pretty lonely around here for a while when she let herself outside to wander away. We put up signs and spent many days outside walking around our neighborhood calling for her. People must have thought we were crazy!!! We loved her and she brought us great joy. 

So, for an early birthday present, my wonderful husband, decided that a new kitten would be an excellent gift, and it was. We had been looking at the local shelter's website for several weeks after losing Sam, hoping to find her when we discovered two adorable baby girl kittens. We fell in love immediately and went that morning to see them. They fit EXACTLY what we were looking for, a girl that did not resemble Sam. But, of course, we came home with a boy that looks almost exactly like her. 
We couldn't help ourselves...he was absolutely ADORABLE!!! He was so calm and so loving. He purred when you put your hand near him and he would actually wear a collar (so different from the other one). He became part of our family immediately and we loved him right away. 

We named him MYLES!!!
And like I said earlier....he is so calm!!! haha
