I’ve got a cat, Scout, who most of you haven’t met because he’s pretty shy. With the move into the new place he’s really started to come out of his shell and get all friendly. That includes me and Kate. He’s taken to sleeping by our heads. He knows Kate will shove him off the [...]

So I’ve been trying to mentally gear myself up for doing some volunteer work at a feline rescue shelter again. I do this by going into the adoption centers at Petsmart whenever I’m there and talking to the cats and petting them and seeing if I can get out of there without the urge to [...]

Didn’t we have one of these last week? Because it sure seems like it. Sunday did not go entirely according to plan, of course. I wound up taking more time to do a lot of tasks than I should have, and then we did a few shopping trips — Home Depot, Petsmart, Target, and Cub [...]

Man, I’m exhausted. But happy. A few highlights: • TempCat™ has gone back from whence he came. I’ll miss the little bastard. During the last few weeks, he’s become more affectionate and playful and has been fun to have around. I also won’t miss the little bastard. Five cats is just too damn many, and [...]

TempCat™ is not integrating as quickly as he did last time. I suspect the reason it worked so well before is that we had his CASTLE OF FASCINATING AWESOME (the cat tree) with him, and while he was in solitary confinement the inmates of Gen Pop were able to play with the COFA which smelled [...]

This picture makes me want to cry, but it also gives me a bit of hope. I am choosing to believe that the cat and owner, against the odds, will be happily reunited. UPDATE, 8/22/2011: Thanks to an update from Tamar at I Have Cat, I now know that the cat was saved. No word [...]

…except for the part where my mom called me to let me know that her cat, Lynx, had died in the middle of the night, it was a pretty good day. That morning, I decided to try the drive up to Princeton to do some framebuilding. We’d suffered a pretty heavy ice storm during the [...]

Tony was my cat for about two weeks. I adopted him from the SPCA while I was in college, and was planning on moving into an apartment. The apartment thing fell through and my mom took him in, and the two of them bonded very tightly. He was an abused cat before I got him, [...]
