I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

Yeah, I really need my cats to try to eat each other!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm not sure about the factualness of that New York Marriage article, because he says The Waltons was based on Truman Capote's childhood. Wasn't it based on Earl Hamner's childhood?

I'm not sure about the factualness of the article due to the identity of its writer. I regard his grip on reality as only slightly less tenuous than Glenn Beck's.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

'Cat, food' made me laugh! Good luck with that, flea... I'm on my phone, on the train, after paying a stupid tax -- I had this voucher to use for part of th ticket, but that almost made up for the difference between the advance and last-minute fares. Eh.

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

Oh, der, I just got that.

Thrive to spite them

flea I've had to introduce 2 kittens (my own) to another cat (Mom's). It kinda helped that Mom's was indoor/outdoor, so when her cat was outside we let mine roam around the house.

But what we did was keep my cats confined to a room for most of the time. Then for the first week let them roam around when her cat wasn't around. (You could probably do this by closing your cat in a room). And then we did some gradual introductions by letting one of mine out and letting Mom's cat in and watching them closely.

We didn't try to force them to get too close to each other and we limited the time.

Once they were doing okay together we'd still separate them when we had to be out of the house for a long period of time.

Just in case.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

flea, the things that worked for us when we introduced the boykitties into the house with Trinian were keeping the boys separate and integrating them slowly, those Feliway diffusers, and Rescue Remedy drops to put in the water dishes.

Of course, Trinian is so dim that even now, 5 years later, she seems to forget there are other cats in the house, then freaks out when she sees one of the boys.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Hell, my cats do that at least once a day.
