Jim blew the rank. It's one of the veterinarians that's interested in our little tortie. Keep your fingers crossed -

It also looks like we'll have enough time to get the kitten shot series completed before we take them up to Seattle. Now, the question is how soon we can alter.

Baths/Advantage? Friday.

I could have sworn Goku would have gone first - he is prime cat material if I ever met it. You want personality? He's your kitty.

Okay, back to the rest of my life. Now in progress....

FIV NEGATIVE.

And it looks like one of the techs wants Aeka. That's five out of six, folks.

Now, to plan the rest of the work they're going to need - the kitten shots are a series of three - I'm pretty certain I can get two out of the three for the three going to Seattle, but scheduling the alter is going to take some.

And of course, coverage for this weekend.

So far, so good, so far....

The kittens (and Mom) are at the vet this morning for their initial exams. (No FIV. No FIV, please!)

I have placements for four out of the six. For less than a week's work, that's phenomenal. The last two? The alpha and the omega of the group - Goku and Aeka.

Goku is going to make someone a really good "personality" cat - he took on Spice this morning and won by sheer bluff. (Spice is still going WTF cat, but hey.)

Yesterday was spent sleeping. I don't recommend scotch-induced bronchitis. I really don't.

Back to work!

Anybody want a kitty? Can anybody help foster a kitty?

Want to see what the kitten situation is in my neighborhood? Go check this rescue's website.

But they're the only ones able to do anything today. Believe it or not, she's just up the street from me - and she, like me, has discovered the resources multiply exponentially within six blocks - just go west.

I've also discovered a new pet store, just down the street from work, to get my cat litter. Yes, I use some artsy-fartsy cat litter - it's basically wheat chaff. But I can fill the litter pans once a week, don't scoop and you don't smell cat. Not at all. It's also VERY popular and sells out. I now have three sources - counting the new place today.

They're also right next door to the classic new-age crystal-crazy supply house - but they appear friendly, the place smells good and has a nice feel to it. I also know I won't be called a dirty hippie scumbag, and the relief is palatable. Because? It's a store FULL of dirty hippie scumbags. (Good thing I like dirty hippie scumbags.)

How can you tell you're in the South Bay? Pet store is holding a Luau from July 22nd through the 28th. These hippies have cash, and lots of it. Don't forget that.

But check out the 'show your kitty' page from the rescue group. We foster; they place. Sounds like something I can do.

However. If ANYONE can foster one or more of these kittens, speak up. I can provide cat food. And I'll transport kittens to be showed on the weekends. I will have to make arrangements for Comic-Con weekend, but until this is resolved, looks like I have something to do on the weekends. It's that, or send them to the shelter - which is overloaded right now.

Anyone want to foster a kitten?

I have teh koot in my bathroom.

Go one post back, and you'll see what I mean.

I GOT THE KITTENS.

No, you don't understand. I got these kittens!

The oldest girls - no more than 9 or 10 years old - came by tonight and asked if I'd take them. Take them all.

Of course. Of COURSE.

I now have teh koot in my bathroom. Want to see? (Warning: HUGE file. Plain, uncompressed .mpg file.)

Next stop? Vet on Monday for FIV tests, shots, altering (if possible) - and then, new homes!

FLAWLESS VICTORY. BWAHAHA.
