At this point, THIS IS URGENT. My mom really needs to find a home for Wedge ASAP, or she will need to surrender him to Animal Control. :( :( :( We don’t want this to happen. Can you adopt an awesome Old Man Manx?
Old Man Manx Cat Seeks Home:
My mom is looking to re-house her 15 y/o Manx, Wedge. (Interested parties: Wedge is formerly the uber-awesome Mollena’s cat.)
Wedge is totally sweet and affectionate, easy-going, adorably talkative, and healthy despite his advanced age. He lived with his brother cat (Biggs, R.I.P.) for many years, and he gets along well with other kitties. He’s happiest as an indoor cat.
My mom loves him, and under normal circumstances, she would keep him, but her two other cats (who are very picky about other kitties) are not liking the addition of a third cat into their menagerie, and the addition is causing cat drama. :/
So. Have you been on the lookout for a really awesome cat? Do you like Old Man Manx Kitties? Contact me if so [queershoulder at gmail dot com], please! I want Wedge to find an excellent home.
Vajra (my cat) just puked on my desk while I was pretending to write. I like to think she was editorializing about my procrastination, because she has a tendency to Editorially Hork about people & situations (her previous owner also has stories about this). The best time was probably when she puked on my bed right before a date came over, and then said date proceeded to dump me in a particularly awful way. Afterwards, I was like, “Wow, thanks kitty, fair warning!”
And, okay, Vajra, you win. I’ll turn off the internet & actually write something tonight.
Miette is the sweetest lap kitty who loves potato chips. she is 6 years old and needs a foster or forever home by 2pm today or she goes to a kill shelter -they’re in Oakland, CA
the owners of these cats are moving cross country and can’t keep the cats due to health reasons - they’ve called every no-kill shelter and rescue group and keep getting turned away. they’re now in panic mode and have until 2pm today to find a foster home for the cats - if you can help and are in Northern California - please… these are amazing amazing pets
I cannot get a sphynx kitten, I cannot get a sphynx kitten, I CANNOT GET A SPHYNX KITTEN.
It was actually the meow that did me in, more than the wrinkles & big eyes & big feet. Although all of those are also adorable. Buhhhhh!
Gratuitous cat pic of the day. Vajra’s taken to curling up on my desk — right next to my laptop — when I write, purring very loudly, and occasionally nudging my arm for pets. She’s always been affectionate, but she’s been even love-ier these past few weeks. Maybe it’s the cold weather? Whatever it is, it’s sweet,
Hi, I'm Gina. This blog serves many purposes for me -- sharing new work & works in progress, keeping in touch with old friends, making new friends, and keeping an eye on what's happening on the interwebs.
But mostly? It's where I blow off steam from graduate school and talk about which David Bowie song is the queerest.
