The memory I am writing about is the day I got my new kitten. She is a black cat with a white diamond on her chest. Therefore, I named her Diamond.

My best friend in the whole world, Corey, called me up one day when I didn't have school and told me that we were going to go look at cats. He really wanted to make me happy, and he figured looking or possibly getting a cat would make me smile. He informed me there were only two left. I begged and pleaded with my dad before Corey arrived to get me. I wanted one so bad because I had just put my cat of 15.5 years to sleep and I was very upset, but my parents would not agree to let me get one.

When we got to the person's house we sat and played with the two last kittens. Corey ended up picking the runt of the litter. He named her Aura. I decided to call and plead with my family; these kittens were just too cute. I knew I had to get one. Luckily I got a hold of my mom, who is super lenient, instead of my dad, who is really strict. After much pleading and tears I finally got the kitten I had been wanting.

We thanked the lady, and headed right on home. On the way home we tried and tried to figure out what to call her. Corey picked up and looked at her chest and saw the little diamond. "Diamond, call her Diamond." he said. I fell in love with the name immediately. Now I bring Diamond to Corey's house to play with Aura.

I still have my little kitty, and I love her a lot even though she makes me get out of bed early to feed her and even though her litter box really smells, that day will always be one of my favorite memories considering the fact made a new best friend; my kitten, Diamond.
