Here I Sit

So, there has been quite a bit that has happened since my last post. I know that no one reads my posts, but I will post anyway. It's nice to have a good outlet from time to time.

I got cleared by my apartment complex for a medical needs cat, or one that a doctor has signed off for me to get. I know that sentence sounds weird and every time I bring it up in conversation people ask me if I am going to get a cat with medical needs. That's a NO. I am torn between a couple of different friendly felines.

I have been going to the shelter to play with the animals and love on them. I am mostly trying to do my part and help these helpless animals get some love and attention. I hate to see them all locked up in cages like they are. I would love to be able to take them all home with me. But, alas, I cannot. Not until I move into another apartment. My current, or one of, roommates is highly allergic to cats. One cannot stand them, and the other, well, I don't know her too well since she just moved in.

She strikes me as someone who would be kind to the animal but not all that receptive. Anyhoo. Here are some pictures:

This is Radar, 1yo, M, very sweet

These two are F, 3mo and 2mo, respectively; Snuggles and Jenny.

This is Domino, 3yo, M, super lovey (aka attention HOG).

I don't remember this one's name. I'm going to call him Dr. Who. 2yo, M, lovable but not good with other animals.

This cat is Mr. Bigglesworth; he is my favorite. He's 6yo, M, and makes a funny noise to get your attention. It's not a normal meow. It's more like EUGHHHN. He's AWESOME.

This is Maggie. She's 8mo, super sweet and she wraps her paw around your finger and gently scratches to show her love back, otherwise, she just sits there and looks at ya.

I really like them all. I am aiming for a M, between 1 and 3yo. But, If I get really attached to one of the other animals I will go outside my comfort zone for them.

Oh and did I mention that when you scratch Mr. Bigglesworth's ears or chin for a fair amount of time he starts to drool. And then proceeds to shake his head, thus, covering you in slobber :D

I spent friday night in the emergency room with a friend. Turns out she had kidney stones. I can totally relate to that as I have gone through passing them. Her's were obviously large and obstructing. She was so violently physically ill that I had to take her in. They got it figured out and she was discharged almost 3 hours after I left her with her mother.

I am anxiously awaiting my job orientation on friday. I can't wait to start working again. I hate not having something to do. That is why I signed up for a summer class. It's a technical writing intensive course but I think I will do just fine. I love to write.

It's 3 AM and I'm going to go finish my movie "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry". Have a wonderful rest of your day and happy memorial day to everyone.

Good Night Stay Strong and Speak Up
