We have two cats called Midnight and Morgan. Midnight is called Midnight because her fur is mostly black, like the sky at midnight. Morgan is called Morgan because it means mornings in German, and Morgan is mostly lightly coloured like the sky is in the morning.
The reason I'm writing about the cats is because they were born in 2009, some time around August, so it's around their third birthday this month. Midnight and Morgan are the same age because they were from the same litter. When they were very little, they didn't have a proper home, so their mum moved them from shed to shed, and they had to keep moving. They came to our house a few times, so my sister and I begged to keep them. We used to have a cat called called Minke, but he went missing and we still had some cat food and a few bowls from when he was around. We just fed Midnight and Morgan at first, but it got cold in winter, and we couldn't keep them inside the house, so we made them a little shelter from an old crate in our garden, and all three of them slept there.
The cats were really shy at first, but as they grew older, they became less shy and we could stroke them. They even got brave enough to come inside the house, which they'd been too scared to do before.
Unfortunately, Midnight and Morgan's mum, Noona (Like afternoon), went missing. She still hasn't come back but we hope she's found a nice home with kind people.
The cats have grown since we first got them, but they're still small. Dad thinks it's got something to do with them being in the cold before we got them.
Morgan and Midnight are very good at catching mice. I never see any mice around here, only dead ones.
