Picture with Santa

This was the first time I have ever taken a pet (let alone THREE) to have a picture taken with Santa. But, the organization where we got Pete and Lily from, Hobbes House Feline Rescue, was having a fund raiser today at Pet Smart where 50% of the price of the photo went to their cause.

So, off we went!

First of all, Pete and Lily's foster mom Christy was there and she was SO excited to see them, in particular, Lily (she had wanted to keep Lily (AKA Velma J.) but she and her husband already have four cats of their own (in addition to all of their fosters)). Brian, her husband, seems to miss Pete (AKA Scooby) the most. BTW, Christy, in anticipation that we'd show up, actually had Christmas presents for the kittens.

Anyway, we decided it would be easier for all of us to be in the picture of Santa. As you can expect, we couldn't get one shot where everyone "looked good" (or was looking at the camera).

This is the best of the bunch! Everyone looks okay; and Lily looks as though she's whispering "Get me the you know what out of here!" in my ear.

BTW, Santa is Brian (their foster dad)! As we were leaving, Mr. B jokingly said, "Are you sure both of them are in the carrier?"
