When we first arrived at the Etowah Valley Humane Society we went to the kitty room. We picked out Uno and took him to the room to play with him a little. Isaac bent down to him and said, "Hi, my name is Isaac." Abigail of course then introduced herself, "I'm Abigail." After a few minutes of playing with him I decided he would make a good first pet. So I took the kids from the playroom to start filling out the paperwork to adopt him. Isaac was very upset to leave and said, "Wait, we forgot to get Uno." I told him he had to wait until we paid for him so we could get him.
On the way home Jake and I asked Isaac if he wanted to keep the name Uno or change it. He said he wanted to change it so we started suggesting names like Thomas or Zoro. After each suggestion Isaac would say, "Well, that's a boy name, but it isn't a kitty name." So in the end we stuck with the name Uno.
Later we went to Stevie B's and when we were leaving Isaac said, "Wait! We forgot to get food for Uno." And when Isaac got home with his new Thomas the Train tunnel he let Uno play with it. "Mommy, Uno pushed the train through the tunnel!" Isaac exclaimed. He also put in a call to Mima to let her know all about his new kitty. I think he said "Uno the kitty" a few hundred times during the call.
Abigail still isn't too sure about Uno. She likes him, but he thinks she is the perfect size for chasing. So when she runs, he follows. She ran to me crying one time and I asked her what was wrong, "Uno sneezed at me," she cried. It's true he did sneeze, but I have no idea why that was tear inducing.
