I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Wow undiscussed adoption of a new cat. Interesting choice mr. Flea.

It's been raining here since 4am. My rain collection bins are full.

Uh yeah. I mean, we've sort of talked about kittens for a few months now, but we had not reached any sort of decision yet.

If it had been a dog, I would have sent him back, so at least he has some sense.

Because books.

Yikes, flea. Um, use the trick you're supposed to use bringing new babies home? Get Simon's scent all over something and introduce it to the girl cat? Let her get used to that before introducing the actual animals?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

My cat woke me up by bringing a bird into the house. A little bird, and not into the bedroom, blut still, adrenaline rush. Got it out the front door and it flew away, much to Jadzia's disappointment.

Female cats are sometimes very blasé about male cats moving in. Good luck with that, flea.

You need to keep 'em separated for a few days at least, preferably in a room with a door that they can sniff at each other under. Then let the door open, and give them free rein for a few hours, let them proceed as they wish, then put new kitty back for several hours.

It's better when it's gradual and the old kitty doesn't feel like an interloper is totally glomming in on her space.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Michael ran out to get cat food and was gone an hour. I figured he'd stopped for a leisurely coffee or something. Nope - he adopted a cat.

Oops! (You know how in cartoons when someone swats a fly on a price tag and changes it from $100 to $1.00? I'm picturing a situation like that where a smudge on the list changed it from "cat food" to "cat, food")

It seems all the supermarkets in the area have stopped carrying Tasty Kakes, so I can't get my weekly treat. I am put out quite a bit in proportion to how minor a weekly treat it is. Le Sigh.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Congrats, flea! We are also stopping by the shelter today to see if we can get an Avon Meowsdale.
