I feel like I am entering a new phase of blogging with this post. During my 10.5 years of blogging I have transitioned from a hopeful mom to a prospective adoptive parent to an adoptive parent to a trauma mama and now to a cat mom! I recognize that not too many people beyond my children will treasure all these cat photos the way that our family does. I also recognize that they are a primary reason I blog so... insert a cat post here or there. As I have prepped posts (I have about 47 more partially prepped posts that will be up in the next month) I have tried to do a cat heavy post for each month of photos.
OK... on with the post...
Our cats came home in mid August. The kids were so excited to take them right to their "cat room" so they could get used to their new home. We started the cats in one room most of the time. This room continues to be their home base. They sleep in their room with the door closed each night. As we could tell they felt safer we let them venture out. They have responded so well to this and now truly have a felt safety in our home. As I write this post (on January 17th) they are reaching new milestones all the time. This morning there were five preschoolers in our family room and they stayed in the family room the whole time! They are such people cats and such social cats.

Sweet Cats! |
That night after the kids went to bed Brandon and I quickly unpacked and were eager to get back to the cats room for more cuddles!
