My son got a new kitten this last weekend. It is such a cute tiny fuzz ball. It will be nice company for him too. Anyway, he had me come over yesterday to see her. When I was getting ready to leave he was in the kitchen and asked me to come in there for a minute. I went in and he opened 2 of the cabinet doors.

I need a minute to compose myself here before I continue.......




Okay, inside the two cabinets was FULL of canned food. From back to front. :wub:


So, even if they never say anything, some things we preach to them may eventially seep in. He knows I'm prepping for both of us during the long haul but just knowing he is prepared for the short term, until he gets here...was worth more than gold. I'm going to get him a case of water to store under his bed too.

Actually, I'm giving myself more credit than I deserve. His job has cut back to 4 days a week for 2 months and that is really what put the bee in his bonnet ball cap.

Wow -- good for him !!!! There is something about an "empty cupboard" that just does not sit right ! Men sometimes do not care about it---but women----oh my, will NEVER stand for it. Cupboards at my house beg to be filled !

That empty cabinet gave me shivers.

Not only were his filled from back to front but he had the cans stacked up to the top of the cabinet. He said he liked the looks of it and was going to keep it that way. It was a proud day for me. :sad-smiley-012:
