Purr-ty Pictures

Here are a few more candid shots of Dubu's first week with us:


Dubu and Sarah, looking menacing, I think

Hmmm...I wonder if we're getting too attached to this kitty...

Catnapping

It's been a while since my last update--approaching the level of blog fade. That's mostly because I've been busy at work, Sarah with finals, and unable to coherently put into words any of my chaotic stream of thoughts about how LOST is shaking out.

But now, Sarah is done with finals, my busiest two months at work are over, and we've got some more time on our hands. To help fill some of that time, we have added a new presence to our home. His name is Dubu.


Dubu



Dubu, the Korean word for tofu, is not our cat. Thus we had no hand in naming him. We are housing him for the summer, while his owner, Sarah's classmate Bia, returns to Korea for the next few months. We've had to do a little catproofing, but all has gone well on this first day of our foster parenting lives. Dubu is a cool customer.

Despite his Korean name, he is a Persian breed--flat face, slanted eyes, tiny nose--features which lend themselves to making strange breathing noises. Here he is snoring as I write this update.


Dubu going dooboo



While Dubu most likely will not be traveling with us when we visit family or friends this summer, you can all keep track of him here and on Sarah's blog, which will have more cat photos up today.
