Default OT - 2 new QIs rescued

Competition between them can be a good thing though, as long as they don't
let it make them lose site of the fact that there are other competitors. It
will keep them on their toes and help them learn what to look out for from
the other competitors. I am really excited for them. I know they will do
great. Give them big hugs for me and tell them "good luck" for the next
competition.

Oh absolutely! She's worked hard but is going to have some stiff
competition from DD2 once she gets some practice up!

They are so cute Sharon. They look so cuddly and squeezable. Congrats to
Maddy with her go-kart goal too. I know you're proud.

Yuppers, while I was slaving away at work today DH took the DDs to the
local
animal shelter to see the cats (something we've been doing since Merlot
passed). Maddy had reached the go-kart goal she'd been set and all
systems
were go.

Please allow me to introduce to you..... Maisie the Majestic (warning -
not
her best photo)

and Sampson the Sexy

Maisie (2 years old) is Sampson's (18 months) mum, he was born when

she
was just six months old and he is now double her size. They were found
abandoned in an old box at a factory and when they were found (October

05)
Sampson was still suckling mum!! Plus she was pregnant with another
litter
which the shelter, by law, had to abort. They had cat flu and so had

not
been put on display and by the time they were over the flu, again by

law,
the shelter was unable to put them on display because they'd had them
longer
than the 28 days they are allowed to keep all abandoned animals. So
they'd
had them out the back. DH found their pictures on the shelter's
website
and
went in and asked to see them.

The poor volunteers were in floods of tears when we adopted them and

gave
the cats lots of parting gifts, they were that happy to see them homed.

So at the moment Maisie is downstairs and Sampson is upstairs sleeping.
They should settle in quite well I think.

So a bit of advice, if you need a QI, visit a shelter.
