Finch

For my 20th Birthday Aaron bought me a little orange kitten. I named him Finch like Aticus Finch in To Kill a Mocking Bird. I like him.I may be a dork for liking him as much as I do, but he's a funny cat. I like dogs and cats, but cats do better at just taking care of themselves, they don't need as much attentions as dogs do. Finch is an intersting Cat. I think the only reason he's lasted this long without Aaron killing him is because he's fun. Some might say he's a wierd cat which is true but he's entertaining. I am writing all this down because when we have our baby, I more than likly will not feel the same about Finch when we have a baby, which is expected.

Top 10 Things We Like about Finch:
1. He's orange. All the best cats have orange fur.
2.He's declawed. This may be a wierd thing to like about a cat, but its funny to watch him pat at things and nothing happens.
3. He jumps really high. Every morning when I brush me teeth I lean one hand against the wall and wait for finch to jump the 4 and a half feet to try and attack my arm. Its really funny to watch.
4. He's lays on his back. If Finch is laying on the floor its on his back. I just think its cute.
5.He always greets me at the door when I come home from work.
6. He carries a little stuffed teddy bear around the house.
7. He sprints from one end of the house to other.
8. He can survive being thrown 8 feet across a room.
9.He's soft and snuggly.
10. He likes to sleep in wierd places like under the TV or the shower. He even still sleeps in the shower after Aaron locked him in there and turned on the water hehe.

The Top 7 Things We don't like about Finch:
1. He's naughty. He always jumps on the counters. I will walk into the kitchen and there he is, but as soon as he see's me he's off like a bullet. I have learned to stop leaving glass cups on the counter because he knocks them off.
2. He's a bitter.
3. He's a cord chewer. He chewed through our Christmas Tree lights last year. I am surprised he survived the shock.
4.Cat Box... need I say more.
5.He likes to wake us up by attacking our hands.
6. He likes to pounce at our legs in the middle of the night on a trip to the bathroom, which I have to admitt is pretty funny, but annoying.
7. He likes to be right in your face when your on the the computer, drives me crazy
