I can’t take one… ☹

But I’d be willing to drive one!

I live in Kansas City, so I could meet the kitten in St Louis or take it from KC to somewhere west.

That is so nice of you!

I don’t live anywhere near Ohio or I would help too if I could. If somehow there’s someone in New England who wants one and the legs can be filled up to here, I can help drive farther on to the kit’s final destination. Anywhere in CT, MA, or RI. Maybe even southern NH and ME.

Heh. We could call it the Great Pussy Brigade. I bet **Shirley** would like to participate!!

**Avabeth, lovelee,** check your emails. I’m sending the pics out. Recall that all the Buckleys look alike, so I’m only sending one Buckley picture.

Well… I’ve been considering a road trip for a while, not this weekend but next. I’ll have to discuss it with That Guy but I **love** kitties! Plus, we could use a good mouser… I don’t care what they look like but you can email me a picture if you’d like. I’d prefer if the kittie was “fixed” first, so I may have to take a girl, which is fine. I don’t really care either way. I **love** kitties!

Let’s see…the girls have appointments for their spays on May 1, assuming the Neuter Scooter people get back with me and have room in their schedule.

Heh. If I run out of LITTLE kitties, I have some big ones too! Kitties for everyone!! Two of them are crazy, though, and **todd33rpm** is sorta attached to the other…

You have to watch it with “fixed” cats. We had our cats fixed, not long after which one of the females one day walked into the living room with a kitten in her mouth …that she had presumably “found”…hmmmmm. In rapid succession she brought in four more “foundlings”; as she put each one down on the floor, she rolled over on her back and gently rubbed the back of her neck on the kitten.

Another cat from this episode, a male, continued spraying. When we took him back they did an exploratory and found that one of the testicles was still there, only it was behind the kidney, not having descended. It’s kind of like…now where did I put that testicle? There it is, right behind the kidney!!

My friend Gordon Shumway would love to bring some new kitties home. I’ll be sure to tell him!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I only get the great titles for other people. My titles must send out a secret code:

**Thread Title** _“Shirley’s Great Idea!” \*  
 **What dopers brains translate it as as** : \* " 3 day old Dead Flounder & Curdled Milk!"_

I would only be doing you a disservice. Unless you are into that kind of humiliation.

If I say yes, does that make me a thespian? 🙂

And **missbunny** wins as the dopette who has thought of nothing but **pussy** all day long. Tell her what she wins, Don Pardo!

I would take one if I could, believe me. I have three cats in a little apartment. One I got recently as a “rescue” because I’m such a softhearted cat lover.

Me too. That’s why they migrate here, I think, everytime one of them gets dumped in the neighborhood. They know a softy when they see one!

This will be an indoor kitty (assuming I get to take it in).

I think my dogs would make a good lunch of her if I let her out. 😃

Just in time for dinner.

I’m afraid I’m full up as far as felines go. I’ve got nine of them right now, although some are just temporary. They sound like nice kitties.
