New Year, New Cat!

Meet Manny Von Popcicle! Our newest member to the family! We saw him at the animal shelter, and I was immediately in love. He's a manx, with a stubby tail, and a LOVER! He's already really good with the boy's, and they are really good with him.

The story of his name? The shelter named him Manny, and last night, Mike suggested we keep that name, I was already calling him Mr. Man, so it fits! The Von Popcicle part? Well.....I was explaining to the boy's how our new cat was getting neutered at the vet on Tuesday, I was explaining what they do, and why (they get their testicles fixed is basically as far as I went on explanation of the procedure). In the morning, I was reminding them that we would be picking up our new cat at the vet later that day, and River say's to me: "Did he get his, um....popci.....um....popcic.......uh, popcicles fixed?"
Too funny, right?!! So, Grampa said we should call him popcicle! I knew we should put it in his name somehow, so there it is! Manny Von Popcicle!
