Okay, just a super-quick one this morning. I got stuff to do! It was a VERY good weekend!
Alice and Rhyme were both adopted on Saturday!
Drum and Clairee were not – but there was some interest in them, so they may very well be adopted on Tuesday. Fingers crossed.
Here are the rest of the Drum and Clairee pics I took. I’m telling you, these cats are so lovely, I couldn’t stop taking pictures of them!
I have NEWS!!!! for y’all, but I want to be able to take my time writing about it, so I’m saving it for tomorrow. HOWEVER!!!
::waving hands wildly::
if you look around carefully and pay attention to your SURROUNDINGS, so to speak, you may be able to figure it out.
::cutting eyes to the left and right::
(Those of you who already know, don’t spoil it! You may, however, do a “Nyah, nyah, nyah, IIIIIIIIII know what it is!” dance in the comments if you’d like!)
Here, have some more exclamation points!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See you tomorrow!
Miz Poo, in the foster room. That is the BEST room in the house for fosters, it gets lots of morning sun. And when there are no fosters in there, the permanent residents like to hang out and soak up the sun.
Previously
2010: Petsmart kitties.
2009: “IF I GET PIG SHIT ON ME, I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!”
2008: Please don’t tell me she’s a flighty mess in real life.
2007: She became entirely liquid somehow, and flowed through my fingers and across the room, ending up under the bed.
2006: I think that the next thing Apple should create is a cell phone/ iPod player.
2005: Yes, I use the same kind of lotion as my CAT.
2004: No entry.
2003: Anyway. Enough about my underwear.
2002: You’ve been warned, skank hos out there who would swoop down upon my husband in his grief and get him to marry you.
2001: Yeah, that’s me, not giving a shit if they can see me or not…
2000: Really, what other journaller will thrill you with pictures from the litter box?
Visted the blog over the weekend and figured it out on Sunday. I just can’t believe you’re making us wait until tomorow for the full story 🙂
All this time I’ve been thinking YOU’RE the big sucker when it comes to cats…turns out it’s FRED! Wasn’t Stinkerbelle his idea, too?
Edit my comment if it gives too much away! Sorry! I skimmed that last part about keeping mouths shut and secrets safe!
I figured it out too… I also had a feeling that was gonna happen!
Awww! Yay! That is great news! I can’t wait to see how this happened!
My first instinct was right on. HOORAY!!!!
Can I just say yay!
Yippee. My friend is driving to pick up her special needs kitty, Coco, as I type. It looks like she isn’t allergic to as much as we thought. The foster mom was reading the test results wrong. Still allergic to a bunch, not just everything. Phew.
I knew this would happen… hooray! 😀
So even though I really was only kidding I guess I was right afterall. Yay!!!
Did not have a clue but I saw it from your hints. Yeah! Can’t wait to hear the details!
Ruby did not chase the cat this weekend -not in my sight anyway- so I didn’t try the Cesar Milan trick. The little wench snuck a pee and poo behind the couch again. That’s what I get for saying I thought she “got it”. Jinx!
Alice and Rhyme!! When did Alice make it to PS? Well congrats…and all the Brady’s have been adopted, correct??
Ok, I suck at this!! I had to be TOLD…
Can’t wait to hear the whole story. 🙂
Yay Coltrane is listed under permanent residents, finally!! hee hee
NO!!!!!!! I wanted Alice! Damn. Now I have to be all jealous every time you post a new picture. I know…she’s better off there, etc. etc., but I can still be sad. Congratulations.humph.
Ditto what Celestial said. But I am not the one to give it away.
I saw it just before I got to the part where you wrote about it.
If it’s what I think it is then…..yay! 😀
I found it! I was all set to do the neener-neener dance, but I saw everybody else did, too. Hmph. But that doesn’t lessen my joy – YAY!
I saw it last night, but it wasn’t the one I thought it would be!
Oh yay! I’m so happy for that sweet little girl, and for you! 😀
you adopted Alice!! She’s a permanent resident now. Congrats Robyn. That is wonderful news for her.
We lost our kitty of 15 years this past weekend. I am still in denial and full of sadness.
I figured it out (before the giveaways in the comments, heh), but I have to admit it’s a little bit of a let down. Not that I didn’t figure it would happen and not that I’m not happy for y’all and for Alice, but… well, with all those exclamation points, I honest to God was looking oh-so-carefully at the books listed in your Goodreads section, and checking out every link in the “me, elsewhere.” I was certain you’d gotten a book deal of some sort and had been keeping it hush-hush until it was in print, and it had debuted on Friday and made the NYT Bestseller List over the weekend. Or that now that she’s got her own network, Oprah decided to do a reality show about animal foster parents, and you had signed a contract for a minimum of 30 seasons (Oprah having paid you significantly more than the other cast members, because you could also bring in those viewers with an interest in cooking, WLS, the necessary surgical touchups after WLS, and chickens).
I’m still HAPPY and all, it’s just… the NYT Bestseller list! and Oprah!
There is a bit of mindset-adjustment that needs to happen before I can be properly excited, is all.
30 episodes, I mean.
LOL! In mah dreams!!!
Hurrah!
My first thought when reading this: “Wait a minute. When did Alice go to Petsmart? Hmm, there must have been a last minute opening.”
My second thought, upon reading the !!!!!! paragraph: “She got another foster (fosters?) this weekend!”
And then I clicked through to the actual entry (I read all my blogs through Outlook’s RSS reader). I scrolled down. Hmmmm. No new foster kitties! Scroll, scroll, scroll…
HOLD THE PHONE!
Very exciting news, for sure! I can’t wait to read about it all tomorrow. 😀
So you are going to get a cow for the farm. Bout time. Snerk.
I have something interesting I learned today and was hoping you would share with your readers. Long story short, due to my husband’s illness this year (throat cancer) he had a g-tube (stomach tube for feeding liquid food through. He weaned himself off the tube YAY! and is eating by mouth again. So what to do with the 300 + cans of Jevity 1.2 that were left? We called Hospice, the hospital and Doctor’s office (That stuff is EXPENSIVE!) and we couldn’t return it to the home medical supply store. Hospice took some, the hospital took some but they directed us to the local humane society! Apparently they feed the liquid nutrition food to puppies or kitties and nursing mothers! Who would have thunk it! (This is NOT the Ensure or similar type drinks you buy on a shelf at a pharmacy or Target, this is usually from a home medical care supply facility filled by script.)
Not that I wish ill on any of your readers or their loved ones or their neighbors or friends, but people get sick, have stomach tubes and then get better or pass on and loved ones are stuck trying to figure out what to do with all the leftover stuff (Hospice took all the other sealed medical supplies btw). So, that might help both the animal babies and people trying to do the right thing. Because it usually expires within 6 months or so, many medical facilities cannot use it quick enough and if someone is unlucky as we are to wind up with so many extra cans (he, thank goodness, recovered quicker than anticipated!) they might could do the same. So, we were able to share with people and animals today! Just a thought that I thought your readers might tuck away in case they ever were in a position to need to know something like that.
Joy~ (In Iowa)
Hmmm….say it ain’t so. Please.
