New Christmas kitty

 We have been talking for a few months about getting another cat to replace our cat Haylie who died in April. Haylie was very sweet and affectionate and since she left the house our other cat, Milo (the all black one) has seemed lonely--and extra annoying and needy.

The Tuesday before Christmas Auntie Alexis and I went to the Ithaca SPCA and picked our our new kitty. Originally named Luna, which Jeff hated, she is now named Holly. She's very sweet and affectionate and seems to be warming up to all of us.

Milo is about twice her size, both length and weight, but seems very spooked by her. Wednesday she peed on the floor when I guess she felt cornered by tiny little Holly. So far they have staked out their own areas of the house: Milo downstairs and in the basement, and Holly upstairs. We're in the process of moving Holly's litter and food downstairs to the basement as well.

More pictures of Holly to come. This is a video of Beckett inside the cat carrier that I used to bring Holly home. Theo originally figured out he could fit inside and for him, it's a little more comfortable of a fit. Beck, less so...
