Cats?

The rescue organization just emailed -- they have two cats for us! They're testing them to see if they'll get along with each other (they're both male and could fight, though males get along easier than females). We could be proud airquote-parents soon!

Yay! I'm so excited for (and a tiny bit jealous of) you!

Why get only two? Once you start collecting them, you just can't stop! ;)

do not say that!

(actually our condo corp restricts us to only ONE pet. So it's a good thing we have no balcony or shared areas...)

(since it's a rescue organization, we know that any cat who enters our home is not leaving, because if a cat leaves, it's going to be killed. so we joked that the rescue people better not show up with ten for us to choose from!!)

Ah come on.... there's nothing to them, really. Just clean the litter a few times a week, make sure they have fresh water, and don't roll over them in the middle of the night.

And cats are even easier!

We are getting neither. But we're thinking strongly about getting new cell-phones.

I'm not as keen on the cat idea as I once was. But I'm likely going to pick up a Roomba tonight. Does that count?

I dream of someday filling my house full of frolicking cubs (as in round furry men, not the actual grrrr munch off your leg kind.) That's the closest I'll come to either a cat or a child. (Children scare me, and my sister is so allergic to cats, I'm surprised she doesn't start sneezing around some of my furrier friends.)

thank you Joel, I laughed out loud at that one. :D Why not just keep them in either leather or rubber, that should keep the hair down... somewhat...

How cool is that!!

Angus and I just adopted two males from the humane society last night!

They were both returned sick to the hospital a few months ago and were in a foster home being nursed back to health together.

We got there and were looking at all the cats and then we saw the 2 of them sitting in the same cage snuggling together.. Angus and I just looked at each other and that was it.. We melted.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you 2 and hope your 2 male kitties can get along the way ours do!!

Hugs Cam and congrats on the newly extended family.

I'm absolutely over-the-moon, quite frankly; I wish they were here now.

Judging by your commenters, there seems to be a trend toward male couples and two cats. Perhaps "lesbian" is the new "gay".

Yay, kitties!!!! They're wonderful.

Although, they can be just as annoying as children, but without the messy diapers.

Cats don't wear diapers? Damn! Now I have to return all of these bags of Huggies to the drug store.
