I'll meet him for the first time later this afternoon. 
His name is Elvis because they say he acts like Elvis. Maybe he shakes his hips and sneers a lot? 
As described to me, Elvis is solid black and has long hair. He was abducted from a feral mother and raised with other cats and dogs before being neutered.

Elvis is adjusting well to his new home. He hid under the bed for the first couple of days. I coaxed him out with kitty treats at first, but that's no longer necessary. He comes when I call him now.
He's an earnest kitteh, if a bit hyper. I need to fatten him up so he'll get lazy.
Elvis wears a little halter that I can pick him up by if he goes somewhere I don't want him to go. He usually learns after being denied access a few times. Here he is napping peacefully after a busy day of driving me up the wall.

I'm getting another kitty. ANOTHER KITTEHHHHH!!!
Elvis needs someone to play with, so I'm getting a second one from the same mother.
Dude.

She's 8 weeks old. I'll have to get her spayed myself 3 months from now. The cat lady told me about a place that does it for $48.
I also get to name her myself. I'm considering Audrey, but I want to wait and see if her personality suggests a more appropriate name.

Hopeless to fight against the toxoplasmosis now!!!!!!!!!
I've been around cats for so long, I probably already have it.
More than 40 million men, women, and children in the U.S. carry the Toxoplasma parasite, but very few have symptoms because the immune system usually keeps the parasite from causing illness.

Not saying dogs aren't great too, but they serve a different purpose in the world.

I don't use clay litter, I use pine and cedar litter because clay litter makes me sneeze and it's just really bad for humans and animals to breathe it. You can mix in chicken feed (the crumbles kind, not the kind with actual pieces of corn in it) and make the pine litter last longer.
When my cat gets in there and pees, it's super loud... I call it "kitty peepee" and I think it's sooooooo cute, it's like a tinkly little song.
The cat lady is bringing muh other kitteh this afternoon!

It's rare I come across a kitty that doesn't give me an allergic reaction if I pet them and don't immediately wash my hands, and kissing them used to be totally off limits. But I actually have a kitty who doesn't make me sneeze or anything for the first time in my life. So I've just been marveling in being able to rub my face all in the belly fur, the kitty really likes me and rolls over all the time to be petted and even sleeps that way. Cutest kitty ever, for sure.

It's a calico though I will say that...
And all calicoes are female. If they're male, they have a genetic deformity and can't reproduce. I never knew that before!
