Meet Mimsy


JABBERWOCKY

Lewis Carroll

(from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872)

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
  Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
  And the mome raths outgrabe.


Our newest household member, Mimsy, joined us today after staying for awhile with the neighbors next door. They already have 4 cats so one more wasn't on. She's a dear little stray who we hope has no feline leukemia virus or kittens in the offing. She has yet to meet Potter - one hopes fur won't fly when that happens.


We have a couple weeks - she's in for shots, etc. tomorrow, but can't be spayed until a couple weeks after that.


Soon I'll post a picture where you can see her eyes.

  1. What a sweetie, and so pretty! Congratulations!
    Almost a female tortoiseshell, of which I understand there is no such thing!
