Latest temporary household addition

tiny flea infested thing

Joyce showed up on my porch last night with a tiny little flea-infested thing that showed up on her porch earlier in the evening. she is allergic and has absolutely no idea what to do with small helpless living things that meow, other than teach them how to be a dog when they grow up. “can we keep it in that box?” she asked while pointing to something that was barely big enough to house a wireless modem at one point in its’ career.

he is currently sequestered in my spare bathroom with an old towel and plate of condensed milk until i can deal with the bugs, get a litterbox, and find him a more permanent home.

i can’t get over how much he looks like Clover. which makes me nervous because that cat was in!sane!

    SO CUTE! If it showed up on my doorstep I would take it in in a second… if I had a home or a fiance that wasn’t allergic to cats! My cat who lives at my parents house is also quite insane so it would probably try to kill it.

    What a cute little rugrat!!! Please name it noodles. I’ve always wanted to name a cat noodles.

    Wow, that is the cutest little ragamuffin ever… and don’t believe what they say about insane cats — they love you as much as dogs do, they just show it differently! :)

    To continue with what Elaan said, we have one insane cat (Heidegger) that definitely loves us – it’s just that he wakes up every morning completely forgetting who, what, and where he is.

    We know this, because he starts frantically meowing and following us around as soon as we get up. Throughout the day, he remembers things, like that he’s a cat, and we’re his people, etc.

    By the end of the day, he’s remembered everything, and starts following us around, meowing, because he’s just so happy and wants to let us know. Then he falls asleep…..

    A stray orange cat showed up on my porch last week.
    I took her in and she is a bit crazy as well!

    My friend Ernst calls *me* Noodles. Noodles would be a fine name for such a cute cat. Noodles it is!

    …or Nimrod. I’ve always wanted to name a cat Nimrod.
