that kitten turned out to be male.
oh rats.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

But I hate it when it's used as a "gotcha" thing (and this is far from the first group I've heard of doing that). Just say "we require all our placements to be indoor cats", ferfucksake. None of this "you're denied because you answered the secret shibboleth question wrong" business, please!
Yes, exactly this. That's what's been bothering me so much. And I knew it when I was filling out the application. I got to that question and just knew I should check "inside" rather than "both," even though they added qualfiers about how often and if it would be now or later or supervised or not. It's the damned sneakiness about it that bothers me so much.
Anyway, there are a ton of cats and kittens at the local Humane Society, but honestly I have a really hard time going to Humane Societies without ending up a snivelling mess. So I think for now the two spoiled cats flopped on my bed are off the hook. No little sister(s) for them just yet.
Thanks for all of the kind words, everyone. I think the rejection hurt just because I hate the implication that ND and I are bad pet-owners.

oh that's total bullshit then. feh.
I'm sure you guys are great pet owners and the universe has a way of providing kittens when needed. In my experience anyway.

Not bad pet owners!!! All they needed was to tell y'all not to let the cats outside.
I prefer mine inside, but one likes to run a continuous route out the door, up the tree and in the window, over and over and over. The other likes to snuggle in the monkey grass. Niether go further than the front porch. This does not make me a bad cat owner.

But you know you're not! The rescue person seems completely unreasonable. I'm involved in rescue (Labs) and driving away good applicants seems counterproductive. Do they have a kitty shortage or something?

Yes. Cause of all the gambling.

Nope, just a bias. Ah well, it's not worth dwelling on. Ima pet my kitties and wonder if maybe this was all some Jedi cat mind trick they pulled in order to avoid sharing the love.

So, I bought these new green shoes that I was in love with in the store. Now I'm wearing them for the first time and I'm less sure... What do you think? Shoes: [link] Side view: [link]

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

This, I believe. Furry little psychopaths, the lot of 'em. (I love my kitty.)

BWAH!
GC those shoes look cute from the side. Part of new shoes for me is looking down and squeeing at my cute new shoes so if the looking down doesn't make you squee maybe you should exchange them.
