Hrrrrmphh

Luna: I just found out that Radcliff sneaked out to a party at Skeeter's house last night, and I'm pissed. I have been looking for a chance to show the Pirate Gurls how to party.

Radcliff: I told you it wouldn't be the sort of nip-fueled orgy that you enjoy. Skeeter is not feeling very well. It was be a quiet get together, with more napping and grooming than any thing else.

Luna: I still think you should have had the told us about the party. Skeeter and LC was one of the first blogs we read regularly, and I would have liked to had a chance to say Happy Purrrthday to him.

Radcliff: Well, you still can.

Luna:

Happy (Belated) Purrrthday, Skeeter.

I hope you have many more.

Introducing Anne Bonny & Mary Read

Previously known as The Two Black Kitties.

The poll pretty much split amongst three names, with Anne Bonny & Mary Read second, and Thelma & Louise first.

There were a lot good of suggestions from the comments, and I thought about having another poll with them added, but finally decided that enough was enough. I really didn't like Thelma and Louise very much, and thought Anne Bonny and Mary Read were more interesting names, at least to me, so here are:

OK, Kitties. You Win.


The Food Source here.

It looks like I've adopted two more cats in spite of myself. One of them is sleeping in my mothers lap most afternoons, so I can't get rid of her. They are litter mates, and are almost always around each other, so I really hate to break up the set.

I may have to rent them out for rodent control to pay the food bills, but The Two Black Kitties are now 'my cats', whatever that might actually mean.

Which means I am going to have to find names for them, and I am pretty much drawing a blank. Most of the combinations I've been able to come up with have either been boy cat names, or I just didn't like them much. So I've decided to see what others thought, and put up a poll of the names I had thought of and kinda liked. Some information about the cats:

  • These kitties are probably litter mates, so I would like to have names somewhat related.
  • They are girl kitties, and are on the small side, at least compared to the rest of the Clowder.
  • They are coal black. If there is a gray hair any where on either of them, it is coming out and is about to fall off.

UPDATE: Corrected spelling error 'Crystal Gayle', not 'Cyrstal Gayle', should that matter to your choices.

NOTE: These are the results from when I closed the poll, on the odd chance anyone really cares.

Purrring as hard as we can for them all




There was a FIVE ALARM fire at the build where Mama Laura, Lilly Lu, Mu Shue and Iris live. That is about all we know about the situation.

More information at the Cat Blogosphere.


UPDATE: From the Cat Blogosphere
Laura JUST called! Mu Shue, Lilly Lu and Iris were found hiding in the apartment by the fire folks going around checking and they’re alive!!! They were hiding and they’re scared to come out for strangers. They’re still there, and she can’t go in yet because it’s unsafe, but Animal Control is going to go in as soon as possible!!! Laura is picking up new carriers right now. The fire people said they’d be ok overnight if it had to be that long, but they’re going to try to get the in tonight if at all possible.
