This is Sprite. Sprite's color and pattern lends to her name. She has spots on one side of her body and stripes on the other. Sprite is sort of a mix of those words, but you can also think of her as a light and airy sprite of lore (small, human in form, playful, having magical powers). Her foster names were "Bailey" and "Sabrina". Not suitable kitty names!

Sprite is Steve's doing. I never would have suggested (out loud) getting two. Until a year ago we had 4 cats. Suddenly we were down to one. I could go along with his argument that there are only two laps here, so there should be only two kitties. HE is the one who said, upon playing with "Sabrina", that we could get two...
Sprite was being billed as shy and timid, a project. Steve had a good feeling about her, and since he is home during the day right now, has time for a "project".
Boy, was the foster home wrong about this one! She came out of her shell so fast it disintegrated into a pile of sand! AND she wants to be buddy-buddy with Sophia! She's rubbing on her, trying to lie down with her. Sophia is very nervous, and is turning her head away, sending "calming signals". Of course, they don't speak the same language. It is going to be so FUN to watch this relationship blossom. (Just imagine the pictures we are going to be able to get!)
This kitty is a Persi/Cheerio kitty amalgam. But she is all Sprite.
