i have no cat food

fat-free vanilla yogurt?
wet dog food?

Give her some milk and some lovin'. Or better yet, a plop of Reddi Whip!!!

I bet you already did.

Nice buzzwords.

Cats have nine lives.

And river people are famously hard to kill.

Don't let the levee break, hon. Get some sleep.

Here, Kitty, Kitty .

As my mama used to say, thank god we have work to do.

Yes. Name her Katrina. And give her milk. And go get a fucking bag of catfood for three bucks. Fuck, I'll buy it.(Pardon my French)

She chose you. I believe in being true to these things. She chose you.

Jeremy really, truly, doesn't want a cat. I'll find a home for her where I can still go and love on her...queenbitch?

You good lady fo' bein' good to kitty katty.

You can do what I do...take her in, love her for a while, then send her to her "forever" home. Sometimes kitties and doggies just need a place to catch their breath....before landing in a permanently soft spot. They seem to be really good at finding those earthly messengers who can help them on their way. Tag. You're it.

Maybe I can split the vet bill with the maintenance guy; he fosters at least one cat right now. They show up here, downtown, much too often. There's a very cool program here AlleyCat Advocates; there's a lot of them, and they go out every month (?) or so all over town and capture them, spay and neuter, give shots, and let them go. At least they can't make more. Yeah, I've got to at least make sure she's fixed and fed. She's working on us really hard to come in the house. AHHH!

awwwwww ...
I bet once she is in she will stay ( what happened to her ?)
schvetybetty: 09/11/2005 2:54 AM
Oh, she's all over the place, but she loves us best, so clearly, i'm feeding her and cuddling, too. She'll be fixed soon...And then, she will go to her 'real' home...damn her little pink nose!

who wouldnt like you the best ?
schvetybetty: 09/13/2005 7:57 AM
she's working it, oh, so hard. she likes Jeremy's lap best. all she wants is to sit on your lap and purr. and, she's a belly cat. that's how you know it's a good one-they gotta let you pet the belly.
