My New Cat
I got a cat! I haven’t had a cat-like pet sort of pet since Violin Strings, who was my last cat back in school. Shite man, that was 1983!
So this cats name is Aung San Suu Kyi, or Suu Kyi for short. Yes I named her after the Nobel Laureate from Rangoon. My cats secondary name is Knucklehead or simply a bunch of swear words all strung together.
My version of Aung San Suu Kyi was a barn cat for her first year and came to me… in a motherly way. Yes you read that right, she’s pregnant. I guess that means I got cats rather than a cat. When she pops and has her kittens I’ll hang on to them for eight weeks then I’ll give them back to the folks who gave me her.
Then I’ll get her fixed. I’m not looking forward to a mess of kittens running around here and turning this place into a cat haven.
With all the impending cats around here I’m glad I got mama cat.
I like my new cat. We’re getting along better and better every day.
Cats are great pets. They’re independent enough that you don’t have them underfoot all the time but still loving enough that they will sit with you and be affectionate.
I love my cats and I’ll always have a cat or two as a pet.
Cats are wickedly cool! I kept twin himalayan cats for a month while a friend was on vacation. They slept all day and played all night!
Congrats on the cat, I mean cats.
Congrats on your new ball of fluff. Very cool of you to take in an expecting, unwed mama.
Thank you for your kind comments on my blog. They meant a lot, BrianF.
