Over the weekend I went to Animal Allies with the family and added another member to the Redmond clan, Colby.

After a fun filled family day, my fiance Krystal wanted to end it by stopping by Animal Allies to look at the animals. I gave her a look and she immediately said "I promise, we'll just look." Surprise, surprise we walked out with a new kitten. My 4 year old Zoey said he looked like colby cheese, so we decided to name him Colby.

He was very shy but apparently we were the only family he went to and after seeing the look in Krystal's eyes while holding him, I knew we couldn't leave without him. Plus he's a fellow ginger and my credo is leave no ginger behind! He'll now keep our 9 year old cat Bloo company when we're at work.
