i_got_a_cat_named_spooky birdmad (now with THREE black cats) little black cat with a loose approximation of a white diamond blaze on her chest she's got a little head with enormous anime eyes, big wide set ears, whip tail skinny, was hostile and unsocial at first, but is now the perfect lap-cat (is a bit clingy in fact...so it's funny that i seem to have turned her from a fuzzy little hate machine into a total baby) a few more days to manage the whole "protective isolation of new kitty" routine 080623 ... unhinged you make me want a fuzzy *pout* black cats need some lovin too 080623 ... birdmad hmmm, dilemmas... all of tonya and shadow's favorite spots to curl up and nap are also spooky's favorite spots after only two days of being freed from the bathroom to this end, tonya has a scratch on her nose and spooky has one behind her right ear and shadow has taken to her familiar hiding spot between my right speaker tower and the TV cabinet...not so much from fear of spooky or tonya but because she has no taste for the drama, where tonya and spooky will sit on either side of the baby-gate in very close proximity to each other, lying on the floor with their heads on their paws and growl softly at each other in what may well be the laziest display of hostility in the entire universe 080708 ... unhinged eventually the new_world_order will be established 080708 ... birdmad it will either be the result of or the cause of the_kittypocalypse 080708 ... bird all purrs the second i scoop her up off the floor apropos of nothing else 080708 ... birdmad and the exploding kitty jeebus, apparently before i brought her in, she got herself knocked the hell up again, the hoover-like vacuuming of food and the now disproportionately round belly are a dead giveaway (I thought i had brought her in while she was just going back into heat after weaning away her first litter, but i noticed when i caught her that night that she was no longer yowling, which can only mean that Iceberg, the big stray Flame-point Siamese who prowls the complex and the trailer park next door serviced her before i could secure the little beast) 080710 ... grendel Thirteen pounds of adorable pushover. Damn near cannonballed her way through the window a couple of days ago in pursuit of that_bird_over_there Currently retreated in kitchen after a scuffle with Tonya MrAAAow? 120604 ... birdmad Now_give_me_back_my_hand 121202 ... birdmad Seven kilos of fuzzy, high velocity love...and stray hair And bitemarks 160503 ... birdmad ...and MORE hair (seriously, for being a shorthair, it's like she's a walking portal to a dimension filled with infinite cat hair) 160503 ... birdmad Sixteen pounds of aggressive affection ("pet me now or I will bite you" "pet me THERE or I will bite you some more" "harder motherfucker") And an endless supply of grey undercoat 13 years old and still kicking 200625 ... birdmad I_had_a_cat_named_spooky Bye_kitty 210714 what's it to you? who go blather from
