That title is really really really long, huh?
I have a lot to say, so I’m going to list it to make it easier on me poor addled sleep-deprived brain. And it ain’t going to be in the order of the title either.
- Why did I get two kittens? What are their stories? Why was I even considering getting 1 kitten when I had two fiercely gorgeous bitches at home? Because I’m a sucker for a sad story and cuteness, that’s why. The woman, Bobbie, who had given me Roslin, called me 3 weeks ago in a tizzy, telling me that Roslin’s mother had given birth to a litter in her (Bobbie) neighbor’s lawn mower bag. Bobbie and the neighbor got the kittens and mommy cat situated in a box on Bobbie’s porch. All seemed well, until that afternoon. Her town was having a block party and the motorcycles spooked the mommy cat. She took one of her babies with her and left the other 3. If you recall, Roslin and her litter mates were abandoned by the same mommy. Apparently, she’s extremely skittish.* Hayden was one of the three abandoned by mommy, Nina was the one kitten that the mommy took. So, Hayden has been hand-fed since day 1. Bobbie found Nina walking around the backyard last week and brought her in the house. When I got there, I was coming for only Hayden. I wanted a boy cat and Bobbie was holding him for me. But, then I saw him cuddling with Nina. She looked up at me and I gasped. Bobbie told me that she had homes for all of the other kittens, but not for Nina. I just didn’t think and said, “I’ll take both of the babies.” And that’s how I became a crazy fucking cat lady. If someone told me a few years ago that I would have this many animals, I would have laughed in their face. Damn.
- And why aren’t people who have multiple dogs mocked and labeled? I know a lady with 6 dogs and nobody calls her crazy. Just sayin.
- I have to clean my office. Bad. You can’t see the top of my desk because of all of the junk in there. I’m sure nobody cares that I need to clean my office, but writing it hear seems like a promise to myself. It’s written down, so now I must do it. Or something like that. I’m sure I’ll put it off another week or two.
- I think I’m going to start recording podcasts again. They were fun and maybe I can talk some of my friends and family members to be guests. I’ll talk my sister into it tonight. Now, if only I could remember how to post the podcasts…
- Oh, and I found a webcam in my desk drawer. How long have I had it…who the hell knows? I’m not even sure if it’s a good one. It’s probably one of those webcams that has a delay by a second or ten and the playback is like watching a record skip. And the audio is out of time with the visual. I’ll have to check it out. Maybe I can show you how big of a bitch Stella Marie is.
- Oh, Stella Marie. She is pissed. I mean, PISSED!!!!!!!!!! She is all like, “What the fuck is in that bathroom moving around? Why must you do this to me? I am a spoiled brat and don’t want to share you with anyone? It’s bad enough you brought that pain in the ass Roslin home…two more? Bitch, I will claw you until you scream.” Roslin is so scared of Stella that I had to accompany her to use the litter box. Yes, I had to stand there while she pooped and Stella hissed like a fucking mental case. And let’s not even talk about my lack of sleep because of Stella Marie’s hissing, spitting, yowling, growling, and screaming. Such. A. Drama. Queen. I told her yesterday that she might as well get all of that foolishness out of her system right now, because the kitties are staying. She turned her back to me and walked away growling. She had dingle-berries on her butt, so that kind of diminished her haughtiness. Of course, I had to cut them out. So, I guess in some strange way she won that argument. She certainly wasn’t wiping my ass.
- I have to cook cook cook for my mother’s party tomorrow. She graduated from college, yay, and we’re throwing a gigantic party. I hate the prep, but it’s so worth it in the end. It should be a great time. I’ll try to take some pictures. All of my stinkies (Morgan, Connor, Rylee, and Colin) will be there.
- Morgan wants a kitten and is coming to visit me today to see my babies. My sister-in-law promised that if Morgan made the principle’s list she would be able to get a kitten. She already told me that she’d name that kitten Keira or Zoe. I asked her, “What if it’s a boy?” She cocked her head and gave me a raised brow, “Aunt Debbie, I don’t want a boy cat. How can I have a secret club for girls and have a boy cat?” Makes perfect sense.
- Blog Drama. Or better yet, Blogworld Drama or whatever you want to call it. I’ve read about 5 posts in the past day dealing with it and I’m like, what the hell, and creeped out. Does anyone take this blog shit (or life!) that seriously? I mean, come on people. It’s the one way you can be sure I will lose my interest in your blog, write about blog drama or posts dedicated to haters or whatever. I used to do that and then I realized that it was retarded. So retarded. I have haters and I don’t give a shit if they come to my blog 100 times a day. Happy reading to all, even the people who hate me. Maybe that’s why my blog isn’t as popular as it used to be. I don’t care about the blogdrama crap and I’m certainly not signing up for that club. It’s so tedious and middle school and I have better things to do, like clean my office or learn ninja moves or poopy-scoop 4 litter boxes or masturbate or clean my bellybutton. When I read a blog, I want to hear about a person’s days or thoughts on politics or how good he/she were fucked the night before or some creative stories or something that challenges my believe system and makes me go and learn something new…that type of shit. Who buys into this form of Blogs of Our Lives bullshit? It’s kind of disturbing. Stop it. Stop writing about it. You’ll be happier.
- I just realized that my whole family will be at my mom’s tomorrow for the party. Oy vey.
*Mommy cat was fixed last week, thankfully.
I swear female cats are th worst ones for drama. They are also more high maitenance. I think you will absolutely love your little boy. I’ve got two female cats and three male cats. The females are prisses (I still love them though) but my boys are so cuddly and lovey. They’re better with the baby too.
Congrats on your mom graduating!!! Hope the party goes well. And I completely agree with you on blog drama stuff. Who cares?!
Morgan is hysterical and very logical.
I thin tht if you can afford to take care of and to love four cats so that they all have a happy life then go for if.
When you start muttering to yourself then I will be worried.
I just love your blog, and I am sure you will have LOTS to say about the party, so please make sure and post about it. And the kitties are way cute. You’re your own person, so who cares what anyone thinks about you or how many cats you own?? Hell, if you owned 20 cats, that’s your business. I say do what makes you happy.
I think the crazy “cat ladies” are actually people who collect animals but then can’t take care of them. Yours are in a great home, I’m sure. Good luck with the new babies!
You rule! That is all…
Personally, I think having just one pet is bad if you’re have to leave the house for work like most people do. Especially in the case of dogs, who are very tribal, packy, social animals. Dogs are never supposed to be alone and they fucking HATE being alone even for five minutes. That’s just how they’re wired. Cats can deal a little better because they’re so antisocial but anyone who has just one dog and is gone for 8-10 hours a day is an asshole. Period.
So I’ve never had a problem with people having more than one pet. Now, if you start talking about SIX … I dunno. I might could dig six, I just dunno. More than six? Sorry but the crazy brush is coming out. LMFAO. But you’re up to what? 3? 4? You still have ways to go so you’re cool.
Not that I spend my time counting peoples pets and judging them, it’s just if I’m confronted with a number then I have a gut reaction like the above depending on the number in question.
I have six cats so I guess that makes me crazy, too! Although no one ever said so to my face. Anyway, I never meant to have that many cats but I love every one of them can’t imagine life without them!. Your kitties are so adorable
My name is Fyrchk and I’m an asshole. 🙂
Seriously though, my surrogate mom has three cats. She takes so good care of them that I’m kind of jealous. Her sister has 26 cats. TWENTY-SIX. At least that was the last count. If you go that route then I’ll call the men with the white jackets.
I’m sure that if there were a such thing as a pet census, it would show that far more people have six cats than six dogs.
Oh by the way, my father loved the shoes AND he’s actually wearing them! Thanks again for the assist!
Super congrats to your mom 🙂 I hope the party was (is) fun 🙂
You can get mad at kittens, but as soon as they put a paw on your hand or nuzzle you, all is lost 😛
There is a stigma behind having cats, like if you dont get married your gonna be an old lady living in an old house with 100s of cats! I love cats and have 4 so I dont see anything bad with that! lol
