When Peter returned from Iraq, he picked out a calico kitten as "his cat".  Despite all Samantha's efforts, Shadow just wasn't up for running, jumping, and tussling with her.  So, when we got to Woodbridge, we wanted to get another cat.  The first didn't work out, and went back to find a better home, and we got a replacement (better model).  The only challenge with the new model was that it took us weeks and weeks to get him to tell us his name...maybe he wasn't sure he wanted to stay. 
Check out some of their antics in the pictures below.
