“Chaos Walking” is headed my way!

I fear — today — it will be here to stay!

Five dreary months since our beloved pets, Huddy and Mia ‘left town’ suddenly.

Now… a switch has flicked.

Time to adopt a kitten!

An 820km trip to collect the perfect ball of chaos!

*
Two of my children are currently driving a nine hour round trip to ‘meet and greet’ and most likely adopt the ‘perfect’ kitten from the RSPCA. I’m wary, as I’m a dog lover and have never been keen on cat-scratched legs and arms!🥹

Also last night, my daughter just happened to finish reading the first book in the Chaos Walking series… the words may prove to be prophetic!😵‍💫😳🙃

The album cover pictured below, reminds me of a chaotic floor plan of our repurposed lounge room, eagerly prepared for Chaos Kitty’s arrival. Complete with: a couch; TV; coffee table shoved against the window; fancy multi-storey play-tower/ scratching post; random other furniture and an enticing long black, crinkly tunnel to race through. Maybe we should paint the floor red, to up the ante and incite a higher level of ADHD behaviour in the two month old bundle of bedlam?
