For those of you who do not know, there was a time, while I was pregnant, that I wanted to name Joshua, "Atticus." No one liked the name but me, and Dan vetoed it completly.
Well today while driving, I found a baby kitten in the road. So very tiny...I didn't even know it was a kitten for awhile. I called Dan and we went to the vet, found out he is just days old (still has umbilical cord and eyes are still shut). He is strong, but needs a mommy. So we bought a bottle, some formula, and took down some phone numbers. We are still looking for his mommy, but if that doesn't pan out we have found a woman who has two nursing cats and is willing to let this one join the brood. He is staying with Dan over night (Joshua is a bit jealous) and he will leave us tomorrow...but until then, we agreed on calling this little guy Atticus :)

Kristen, too bad Dan doesn't adopt him...
All I can say is thank goodness you didn't get to name Joshua that - - - yeech. However the cat is adorable!
I think Atticus is a great name. Glad you finally got to use it. Joshua looks more like a Joshua than an Atticus, though.
Atticus is a cutie! But that big lug who's holding him . . . YIKES!
Good thing that kitten can't see yet.
Oh yeah, btw, an Atticus update would be appreciated!
