After a great deal of discussion at Wiltshire Towers which has lasted for close to 4 years, we decided it was time to expand our family. Despite my previous assertions that I was happy with two children, I did feel that another small person could only add to the mix.
As a result, we have adopted a two year old. She has made her mark in many ways, settling in and slowly taking over the entire household. She is developing relationships with each of us in her own way; she intuitively knows to give The Boy more space than she would anyone else, and will sit next to him quietly. She has contained The Ex and forced him to relax more of an evening, distracting him from his Football Manager game. She is devoted to Lid, who is puzzled yet delighted at having someone who is equally adamant that they are in charge as she is.
All in all, it has been a good decision and she is even managing to help calm my mad.
It has been a long time since we had a cat at The Towers and it is fitting that, in a house of lost souls and damaged people, the newest member of the Wiltshire family found her way to us after having been abandoned herself.
So I introduce you to Gizmo Wiltshire; Cattersea moggy extradinaire, newest member of Wiltshire Towers, and all round supercat.
