(I so want Joe to call his family and tell them that, so for just a second they’ll think I’m pregnant.) We’re adopting a cat we saw on a Craigslist classified ad. He’s a dashing older gentleman who enjoys lounging indoors and sitting in laps. There wasn’t a picture posted in the ad, just a description of his age and personality. So it is a complete coincidence that he looks almost exactly like the cat we already have. So now we’ll have a matching set of eight year old cats. He’s coming Saturday. This is going to be one entertaining weekend.

His sister sort of fell for it. He called her on Saturday and told her that we expected the family would grow by one. She thought he meant a fish. He said not a fish. And she was rolling right along with it until he spoiled it by telling her that we had expected something to arrive that afternoon, but it hadn’t come yet. That was when she said if THAT is just a few hours late it is way too early to be thinking that you’re expecting… It had gone far enough, he had to tell her we were expecting a cat.

Then we didn’t get him. “Mister Jenkins” peeded on the floor twice right before he was supposed to move in here, and his current owner wanted to take him to the vet to treat him for an infection if he has one. I feel bad for the poor old kitty. I hope he feels better soon.

Well, is Mister Jenkins okay? did y'all get him? Yeah, I'm a little late.... we haven't had internet in over 2 months and other life stuff has transpired (my pc picked up someone's wireless network signal and they apparently don't have any security measures to keep me off it, so I have internet this afternoon! :pe: )

No internet for two months! Well then Woo hoo for free internet signals! And Glad to see you back.

Mister Jenkins did arrive the next week. For the first week he was here we were forcing a syringe of pink stuff down his throat twice a day until some spilled in my palm and he licked it up. From then on it was smooth sailing. His infection must have cleared up because he never did pee on our floor.

We couldn’t get him to respond to “Mister Jenkins” so we changed his name to Marvin. The story we got is that he was “Nana’s cat”, and Nana passed away recently. Her grandson inherited him and couldn’t keep him, so he put the ad up hoping he wouldn’t have to take Nana’s cat to the pound. He is a nice cat, very polite and well mannered, enamored with our fish tank, in love with our Julie, fornicated by bed mice and he weighs in at a whopping 18 pounds (Julie weighs eight pounds).

We’re so happy with our new cat that we feel like we won a prize or something.

Edit: When I typed “fascinated” in the spell checker I misspelled it and it automatically fixed it to read “fornicated by bed mice”. I think it is funnier that way.

Thanks for the clarification! :blink: I wasn't sure what kind of establishment you were running there. LOL

Yep the free internet thing is working kinda okay for us. There are 2 wireless routers (out of about 14 that we can see) that we can connect to. as it turns out, we were randomly connecting to them when we had internet anyway.

OH, and I have an AWESOME new job (which is #11 for this year... more that all the rest of my life combined) and I can surf at will. :pe:

One day you shall learn love all the sugar-coated-cute things in this world Souly (and this process shall start by me referring to you from now on as ‘Souly.’)

I think that Marvin is a much better name for a kitty Blue; I’d feel a bit strange calling a cat Mr. Jenkins, a bit too formal, and kitties already have a superiority complex to them anyway.

Good lucky with the new kitty Blue! I’d love to get another cat; unfortunately my Olly was mauled by a pit pull terrier not long ago. :(

Thanks Poppy. Mister Jenkins was way too formal. He won’t eat anything I eat. He looks at it like “eww servant food”. If I had to call him Mister as well, then there’d be no doubt as to who was in charge. As it is at least there are moments of doubt where I think I might be in charge.

So sorry to hear about your Olly. Hope the bastard who let their dog go around mauling innocent kitties got into some serous trouble.

He loves us so much he could eat us with a spoon.

Marvin the Great (what we named Mister Jenkins), is the only cat I know who has peed a sentence.
