Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm truly more concerned about 3 hours of anaesthesia on a small animal than about the tattoo.

Yeah. Although the animal was no doubt in pain for days....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think the tattoo's gorgeous, but that in no way makes it a good idea.

I'm not so concerned with the pain, I've had tattoos and the pain once it's done is relatively minor. I'm more concerned that 1) doing anasthesia on an animal is not to be done lightly and the people doing it are far from professionals, they could easily kill the cat and 2) there is a much higher chance of infection setting in on an animal than on a human, we can at least bandage it and tend it properly, the cat can't.

It's mean.

lisah, can you give me the skinny on the Alameda? I don't know so much.

(It's weird because I grew up right off an Alameda, went to Alameda Elementary and just have cog. diss. that there is one in Baltimore.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

billytea - when you are around again, Mo Willems wrote a children's book for you. It's called "Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed" and it is currently Emeline's favorite bedtime book. Last night she eschewed "Madeline" for "NAKED MOLE RAT, MOMMA!"

Oh wow. That is awesome. I've never come across this author before. His other books look interesting too. Apparently there's this pigeon, found a hot dog or something. We should look into that.

Is that the same pigeon who has issues regarding the desirability of it driving a bus?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I really think it's a bad idea to let the pigeon have control of the bus. I don't even see why it's a question.

It's not a mature pigeon.

And it doesn't have opposable thumbs.

I dunno - a book was written. They must have figured people needed warning.

I think the book endorses the principle.

Bad thing. Bad bad thing.
