true story: here kitty, kitty

A family decides to get a cat.
After weeks of searching, they find an ad with TWO adorable kittens (brother & sister) needing adoption. The family decides not to separate them, even though their original plan was to get a female, and they bring home both.
The gray striped kitten they name Elvis.
The female kitten that is black with chocolate tips is named Elvira.
The family is happy with their selection. All is splendid.
Approximately EIGHT weeks later the kittens are taken to be spayed/neutered, have nails trimmed, rabies shot administered, and micro- chips implanted.
A call from the clinic after procedures are carried out goes a little something like this:
"Good news is your cats are out of surgery and everything went great.... (long pause) The bad news is that Elvira IS A MALE. So you have two male cats. You can come get them after one today. Thank you!"
