She's about two or three, so given that I haven't been struck with inspiration, the name will likely stick.

So far she doesn't seem interested in the cat (or the cat's food) which is all to the good. But is likely also a factor of still being a little freaked at new places/new people.

This org, Project Rescue Chicago, got her from a traditional shelter, then she was boarding at a daycare for a while. In either case, not much human contact, so they got her into a home and said it took about two weeks for her to get comfortable and warm up, after which she was sweet and warm. The rescue people were all "no really, please believe us!" Makes me wonder if people backed off from her before because she wasn't all cuddly.

She's definitely shy, but not scared or flinchy or anything so I think getting settled shouldn't take too long. She was with the fosters for about two months, but from her paperwork it looks like she's been in shelter/foster since at least September. Poor wee girl.

Cat is displeased, but not hissy or anything. She's hiding under the bed at present, but she was doing that for three hours before she got here, so.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It is like unto an oven in Dallas right now. Hubs and I are about to see some stupid movie or another just for the freezer that is a theater. Movie starts at 7 or 7:30. Also, they have a bar. Also.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It finally started being sunny here, s I have books out drying and have planted tomatoes. The hose is f*cked though, so I can't water them without carting the water from my apartment. The sprayer is broken and does not wrk, but it will not come off, even with a wrench. It is my downstairs naightbor's hose, so I don't want to mess with it too much.

I do not think we even got 5 minutes of rain. I also do not think it cooled off much. I am sweating in the house if I do much more than sit still.

Aw, brenda, very happy for you and your new pup.

Storms moved through early enough for a swim. But they didn't do much about the humidity. It's maybe a teeny bit better, but certainly didn't break this ooky weather. So this is my dinner: [link]
