hey
can anyone help me with my cat dilemma?
Mikhaila went to a big cat show yesterday and guess what?
no she hasn't brought any home, although she spent about a half hour on the phone with Jeff, trying to talk him into it, while I was at Petlands, getting stuff and once again wondering why I can't "save" every garter and ribbon they have
when I got back to our fully loaded zipcar, Jeff was still on the phone and there came the historic moment when I heard Jeff say:
"no cats! snakes - yes, lizards - yes, spiders and bugs - yes, but no cats!"
now I see that this rescue in CT has two Maine Coons - they're siblings - and I'm kind of wavering
we still have all our cat stuff
it's just that I'm still unpacking from the move and hadn't planned to even think about cats or dogs 'til spring
if we get cats - they'll be strictly indoors, because of the large number of strays in the hood
that means hair everywhere
oh, I don't know

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

Rhea, of COURSE you need to go adopt those cats! They need you. What's a little cat hair in trade for the kitty purrs you'll fall asleep to every night? And Jeff will adapt. Males of our species are very trainable. LOL

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

I think we've won him over
Mikhaila has to pass a test
and i have to find out, whether the cats are still available

meanwhile, I've yet another foiled snake escape story
I do need to get this sliding door thing down a bit better
it was Hermione, the red-spot mama
I was gonna feed her, but she wasn't home
thankfully she hadn't got far
AND
she proved to me once and for all
right in front of my eyes
that a snake with a 1.5cm body diameter can fit through a crack 0.15cm wide
I caught her dangling between the shelf and the wall
I thought she was stuck
but by the time I'd gotten the phillips she was hitting the road
and she bit me! hard! bleeding and all (can't say it hurt at all, but I did call her a female dog a few times, because of the battle atmosphere)
now she's in her dining hall with a little tub full of pinkies and minnows
I noticed she was just sucking down the last pinkie, while there were still minnows in the dish
I must say
I cannot help feeling a bit triumphant
I do have to figure out how to better secure those sliding door tanks

Random is my specialty. To answer your question; Yes.

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

Should you ever feel the need to smell funky again, go to a goat farm. That male goat smell will knock your socks off. When I was breeding milk goats and kept a few bucks on the farm, I could clear out a room fast... it's great when you're at the grocery store, people with one item to your 50 start going, "Oh, please, go ahead of me, really, I insist!".... LOLOL :-)
