Sadly, two weeks ago our sweet little Shiloh went missing.
She didn't come in one night, which isn't uncommon, but we also heard a massive cat fight off in the woods which we assumed was a coyote getting at her... A month ago our neighbour's cat was attacked by a coyote and managed to get away but they had also heard a cat fight the night their cat was injured. So it makes the most sense to us that this is what happened to Shiloh.
It was especially upsetting as she was due with her first litter of kittens at the end of September and we were all looking forward to her 'cubs' (as Delilah kept calling them).
Well, after Shiloh had been gone for two nights a woman I used to do Bible study with had posted some kittens for sale on Facebook. I excitedly showed Will and contacted her to explain our situation. We agreed that she would save the last one to be claimed for us to have.
We spent the next few days eagerly looking forward to adding a kitten to our house, despite the circumstances. And once we came home from our Labour Day weekend camping trip we went to pick him up!
Here's some photos of our first week with him:
The first few hours with him at home.
Snuggly little guy
We named him Mozzy, after the Mossberg gun. 😛
The first morning with Mozzy. 💛
What does James think?
He is thrilled!
Just a wee little kitten.
Jonah shrieked with excitement when he first saw Mozzy
Under the couches is his favourite place to be! He's found that he can climb up into our black couch and there the kids can't find him. ;)
He looked so adorable sleeping with his paws crossed.

Delilah loves to tote him around and is just about always holding onto him.
