i loev catte

Cats are awesome. But why are they so awesome.
Besides toxoplasmosis.

they're small enough that they're unlikely to kill you but not so small you have to worry about smashing them just by holding them like birds or hamsters

they're pre-potty trained

they make little rumbly noises when happy that lower your blood pressure

they act like they all that and then they do incredibly undignified things and look offended if you laugh

they're warm and fuzzy or warm and less fuzzy if sphinxes, and if they're sphinxes you can put them in tiny sweaters

that's pretty much it really

e: for snype here is luna trying to get her toy off the end of a foam roller

also tokomon look for TNR (trap neuter release) programs in your area please please please


I have. :(

The only program in the county that I could take them to is a $35 charge per cat. I just... really don't have that kind of money. Also, since they're not my cats and are fed/taken care of by a neighbor (who just excuses their negligence as "I really like kittens") there's other issues involved.
If I could get them to "give" me the cats and if I could find the money, I would in a heartbeat. I can't just steal them without repercussions. I've done the legwork for the neighbor, I found the program in the area, I got them the paper work, and I've asked them about it. It goes nowhere. Her husband "really likes kittens" and doesn't see the problem.

if you could get permission from their owner or whatever you'd need to, i might sponsor a cat for the $35 with the understanding that you post pictures of the cat my $35 went to as often as possible with updates

this is a good idea

the yospos 'adopt a catte' program

"call now and we'll send you a picture of a catte you can sponsor, obligation free"

Hmmm...

I might just have to discuss that with them. If anything, at least get the queens spayed. They're all super sweet cats even if they're occasionally a little skittish.

What if she's rural? She isn't rural though.

Oh, what about a houseboat? She doesn't live on a houseboat though.

She's a total hausfrau.
