Friday Oscar


Pets 108

We were driving back from my mother's house in Georgia two years ago on Oscar weekend. We normally stop at the state line rest area on this trip, and this time was no exception. As we walked to the restrooms, we saw a very friendly cat - a kitten, really. Being animal people, we stopped and petted the cat, looked around for an owner, checked for tags, etc. It was pretty obvious the cat was a stray or a dropoff. We hemmed and hawed over it for a minute, then went on to the restroom. When we came out, it was still strolling around the parking lot. We petted it a bit more before finally deciding to pick her up and stick her in the car. Mrs P always travels with a pillow for comfort - in this case, the comfort belonged to Oscar, the newest member of the Pierce clan. BTW, Oscar is a girl-kitty.
