Cats

My friend B sent me a link today to this photo on Flickr, by kaylovesvintage, saying she saw it and thought of me. She knows me well. It's so cute I had to share.


While on the subject of cats, I know some of you were concerned about my friend's cat Binky who needs a new home. Sadly, she hasn't found anyone willing to take him. She has an appointment at the Humane Society Monday. I'm just praying he doesn't mind being in a cage, or they will put him to sleep. (That happened to a stray cat I took there once). That will totally break Jenny's heart, and mine. I told her if I can manage to make it through the front door (although I will be a blubbering mess, I am just typing this for crissakes), I'll visit him since I live just around the corner. I really wish I didn't already have 6 cats.

I love Kay's flickr photostream. So beautiful and so much a real home. Plus she has a great West German pottery collection :)

My fingers and toes are crossed for Binky.

Awwww...poor Binky! I think I might be allergic to Fergus and Lola :( I have an allergy exam in a few weeks, but it's brutal - I just started on a ventilator because something is affecting my breathing so much. I really hope it's not them and even if it is, I can't imagine sending them away. It may mean, however, that another move is in store - to a one bedroom so that I can have a door to close and attempt to keep a cat free bedroom...

I really hope Binky finds someone to love him! I wish I could take him.

OH NO Jawcey! That's my worst nightmare, developing allergies to cats. I hope to gawd that's not what you have.

So sorry to hear about Binky :( This makes me want to drive the nine hours north just to come get him... unfortunately I don't think my cat Oscar would be too happy with me if I came back with another big male fur-ball.
