Shadow the cat

Just before Halloween this year we had a little furry friend show up at our house.  He's a solid black cat that the girls named Shadow.  I for one wasn't thrilled when Ryan told the girls they could feed him, obviously we're good in the pet department.  He's been pretty easy to have around so far, and he loves the kids.  He hangs out with them in the morning when they wait for the bus, and he's there when they get home.  It's starting to get pretty cold so at night we let him sleep in the garage.  I don't have a problem having him here if he takes care of mice and other critters for us.  So far so good with our newest family member!
