I teach piano for a living. I volunteer at a soup kitchen. I rescue and foster kittens. I have two cats.  I bake and cook for fun. I daydream about opening a bakery. I just adopted a new kitten. I think the name "mittens" is cliche for a cat. I think you should consider adopting a cat.
Strawberries are my favorite food. I like red berries. I am a veterinary assistant. I like cats. I wish I had a cat. I like to go to the beach and collect shells.
There is a cat up for adoption near you that I think you would love! Ohh, tell me more about it?  Like what color is it? She's a calico, so she's all sorts of colors. They say she's really feisty but also really sweet. Nice, I love when a cat's fur has some character to it! Do you know how old she is? I get pretty attached, so I'm hoping she's still pretty young and will be around for a long time. She looks to be under a year old. Not exactly a kitten anymore but still not quite a full grown kitty. That's perfect for me!  What will I need to do to adopt her? I'll have to give you the number for the shelter and they'll walk you through a quick adoption process. It's not that bad honestly, they just try to make sure that pets are going to good homes. Sounds good, remind me to get that number from you before we're done talking.  Now I just got to figure out what to name her... got any ideas? Not Mittens that's for sure (she doesn't look like she has them anyway). I'd honestly wait until you get her so you can decide on a name that fits her personality. Haha, Mittens wasn't even on my radar! Don't worry I wouldn't do that to you.  I was actually thinking something like Sandy or Seashell, but I think you're right that I should wait until I meet her. I'm sure it won't take long to decide. When you get her home you'll have to send me some pics of you two. For sure I will do that! It will be so exciting to finally have my own cat.  I hope she's as sweet as you say she is!
