Introducing Finn, our sweet new kitty! The other day I made the mistake of looking in the pet section of the local classifieds. There, in black & white was a notice that said the "Humble Animal Control" is a kill facility, and that this rescue group named "More Than Angels" was desperately seeking people to foster or adopt pets. This group collects animals that have been picked up by the city, but not claimed. They work through the PetCo, and hold adoptions every Saturday and Sunday. By last Saturday afternoon, little Finn was mine. He is a sweet, mild mannered boy that loves to be held, and loves to play. Things at home though have been a little topsy turvy since I brought him home. Stella and Pinecone are quite annoyed at me, but Mickey doesn't seem to mind, and Finn certainly isn't afraid of him...which is good. I'm not sure how long this adjustment period will take, but I think it will be alright in the end.
Okay...back to quilting! I am loving all of your comments, and ideas on how you would use the fat quarter bundles from Robert Kaufman. Be sure and leave your project idea if you haven't had a chance so far. The drawing for the bundles will be on October 7th.

What a sweet face! And what a great thing to do for a cat that obviously deserved a good home.
I wish we could have a cat but, alas, we just move and travel too much.

He is just beautiful. I'm such a cat person and tabbys and pure blacks are my favourites so your Finn is a mighty handsome guy in my eyes... though he has a mischievious twinkle definitely. I so miss having a cat in the house. We have 2 doggies at the moment and I keep trying to persuade the OH that we need some kitty personality ;)

What a handsome fella!
So glad he is safe and loved in his new forever home.

Finn looks like he loves his new home. I always get our kitties from the local pound. They make the best and loyal pets.

Oh, I would love to rescue a sweet kitty! But I doubt my two dogs would feel the same! They really don't share my love of cats!

Yay! Congrats on Finn - he is QUITE the handsome boy. :) We have 3 kitties and a bunny ourselves, and couldn't get along without them. :)
Skritches to Finn!

He's beautiful. What a wonderful gift he's given you! (and you to him)
I think he looks like a cat who will park himself in the middle of your projects! LOLL

Hi: I found your blog via our Liberated Quilters yahoo group--and scrolled down to your kitty photo. He truly looks like the twin to my Martha, and I'd post a photo with this comment if I could. I'm sure you'll enjoy Finn as much as I enjoy Martha.
