The Two of You are 2

When we adopted XingXing and FuFu from KittyKind (www.kittykind.org), they told us that they were 10 weeks old, so without a whole bunch of precision we counted backwards and decided their birthday was 8/21/2009. On their first birthday last year they strode forward from kittenhood to the fraternity of adult Catdom amongst a rousing celebration that included candles, copious volumes of Whiskas-brand artificial cat milk, marching bands, balloons, banners dragged by aircraft all across the Eastern seaboard of the USA, and fireworks displays by a number of cat-friendly municipalities within a 150-mile radius of NYC. This year, however, their landmark 2nd birthday passed without much fanfare due to their humans decamping to Europe for a vacation, a hurricane scare, and then finally another human dash to the beach over Labor Day Weekend. So with all apologies, I wish XingXing and FuFu a belated happy birthday!
