lblanchard tells me there's an app which converts all pictures of Donald Trump into pictures of kittens. This is excellent. But why not take the idea further- and whenever Trump crops up in our conversations or thoughts imagine him as a delightful little ginger kitten- and when he's doing something particularly destructive have him be playing with a ball of wool and getting his mischievous little legs all tangled up?
Re: cats will let you know.
Date: 2017-01-21 11:48 pm (UTC)"My" first cat was Zeus; his owner was bipolar and couldn't keep him, so I was catsitting for 6 months until I had to move abroad and found a permanent home for the cat as the owner could still not take him.
And then this summer a young cat snuck into my car at a motorway rest-stop, and as he was neither chipped nor tattooed I had the choice between sending him off to a shelter or... Well... He was cute! And because the vet had to register a name for him on the official papers he was named Punto - after my car! (I had to put him down after two months, though, as he had a rather unfortunate meeting with a piece of farm machinery one afternoon while out roaming the fields. I took him home and buried him in the garden the next morning.)
And after Punto... Well, NEVER a cat again! Two weeks later I was holding a tiny black kitten at the shelter. And he's NOTHING like Punto was - which is fine; Punto was about a year when he hitched a ride in my car, and Loke is still a young adolescent so he needs a bit more attention and still has things to learn. (He no longer gets stuck in trees, which is a GREAT improvement!)
trees!
