Chloe's Theme Song (sung to tune of "Hello, Dolly" (with apologies to the original producer/songwriter))

Well, HELLO, Chloe! Yes, hello, Chloe, You bring such happiness into our days. I was so sad, Chloe! Now I'm glad, Chloe, And pleased to have you in so many ways! I see the plants swaying, You hear me saying "Get down from there right now, right NOW!  I say." Oh, golly gee, Chloe! Just how cute can you be, Chloe? Chloe you really steal our hearts away!

I knew Chloe would be going home with us within a day of arriving to stay at her foster home in California.  Of the three kittens, she was unquestionably the most social.  It was Chloe who snuck into our bedroom and crawled under the covers with us, content to snuggle and purr the night away.  She's everybody's favorite, although most people think her sister (Lavender) is the real beauty.   "Hah, what do they know anyway," Chloe says huffily.

What's the "T." for?  My mother decided that her middle name is Trouble!

She's our social girl.  You can count on her to be there to greet guests when they arrive. She's also relatively fearless, was the first to scale Mt. Brooklyn, and chases the squirrels when she's outdoors.  They race up the tree, and she sits below, waiting for them to come back and continue the game, unaware that they've already gone down the other side...  One evening, I saw her outside socializing with a lovely black and white cat, only to realize to my horror that it was a skunk.  When I frantically called for her to come in, she merely looked back at me, then disappeared into the hostas after the skunk.  It was almost as if she was saying "Hey, girlfriend, what a gorgeous tail!"   (And no, she didn't get sprayed, much to my amazement.)
