Yes. Please. In fact, why don’t you make it a double?
I do have the best of both worlds, in a way… one of our cats is a teeny little runt with giant eyes. Weighing in at a whopping 6lbs of spite, she’s so tiny that she still passes for a teen-kitten (if she was human, she’d still be getting carded even though she’s nearly 40).
Thankfully, she just looks like a kitten, but she doesn’t act like one at all - so we don’t have to deal with the endless bouncing energy and destruction that comes with real kittens.
I get all gooey in the presence of kittens. However, the last couple of cats that we’ve adopted/adopted us have been teen or adult cats. My husband insists that he’s gonna pick out the next cat (he’s taking our daughter’s two cats to Virginia to live with her, now that she’s found a permanent place to live)(this will leave us with only one cat, and I insist on having at least two cats around the place), which only goes to show, I think, that I’ve a) finally turned him into a cat person and b) he doesn’t know how this cat/human thing really works yet. He’s under the impression that the human picks out the cat, AND gets to name the cat. I’ve always found it to be the other way around.
How about with olive oil? We have a squirt bottle full of water that we use to tell the kitties that the table is not a good place for them. We used to have a nearly identical squirt bottle full of olive oil for squirting on our food. Until Mr. Neville grabbed the wrong squirt bottle when Luna jumped on the table. It was a huge mess, and I had to take Luna over to Petco to get a bath. She ended up getting several baths (which had to be all kinds of fun for her and the groomer) before they could get most of the smell out.
Just counting the days. We’ve got a buyer for our house, a new house lined up, and sometime after we move I get to go KITTY SHOPPING!!!
It’s been 9 months since my last cat died, and I’m in serious withdrawal here.
Love kittens, but I made it a point to adopt an adult cat from the shelter because they are always passed over in favor of kittens. I wish I could have known Freckles as a kitten though…I bet she was a holy terror.
