Epilogues: May 2016

26705799553_c865391f36_kSupposedly, it’s March hares that are madder than a hatter.

But, ’round here, May is the month of mirthful, mind-splattering madness, courtesy of 100,000,000,000 kittens.*

These kittens are named Wawa, Bodega, Kiosk and Kroger. Your argument is invalid.

With Kitten Season in full furry fury, try to keep up with us if you can. We can’t keep up with ourselves these days. But, before we curl in fetal position with our adult coloring books, let’s muse on May:

Adopted: Dobro & Gorgonzola (together, yes really, YES REALLY, with Dr. C, because she is that obscenely scandalously smashingly brave); Heath & Gardenia (together); Bubbles; Ellen & Whoopie (together); Orchid; Armand

Returned: Autumn & Chianti (together, a combined 35+ pounds heavier than when we last saw them)

Cleared from Quarantine: Trey, Riley, Leah, Swiffer, Charcoal, Misty, Hank, Nigel Vincent

Promoted to the Community Room: Bucca, Ferret, Chinchilla

Pleased about aforementioned promotion to aforementioned Community Room: N/A

They came from the same shelter. They came with the same face. They came with the same hobby. They're our heart-stealing, human-eating Scylla and Charybdis, Jackie and Leah. Don't say we didn't warn you.

Promoted to the Lounge: Katrina

Promoted to Forever Foster: Rupert

Promoted to Heaven: Eve

Stuff We Learned: If you look like Jackie and come from the same shelter from whence we got Jackie, you are apparently required to talk trash, steal hearts and consume human flesh like Jackie. Nice to meet you and your big shiny teeth, Leah.

Apropos Of Nothing Except Love, Which Is Apropos Always: Would youze guyze please keep a tiny tidbit named Phaedra in your prayers? She arrived all of two hours ago, so I have little to report yet, except that she’s sick, she’s extraordinary, and she needs a full starship of miracles if she’s going to make it to the Kitten Shower. Please pray. Thank you for loving her with us.

*No, not literally one hundred billion kittens, although that would be an outstanding name for a post-industrial all-accordion R&B group.

  1. Some velvet morning when I’m straight, then I will …. pray really hard, and wish good health for Phaedra! Wawa, Bodega, Kiosk and Kroger – the Tabby’s Place kitten shopping mall. Thank you for this wonderful update! Now we can sip Chianti and clean up with Swiffer. Forgive me. (Thank you Dr. C., from all of Dobro and Zola’s fans.)

  2. Hi, best wishes and prayers to precious little Phaedra.

    Now wait a minute – Dr. C. adopted Dobro and Gorgonzola!!! That is major, wonderful news and I am truly happy to hear it. But – Dr. C adopted them as what? House cats ……. barn cats …. Isis trainees? Bouncers at a Trump rally? 🙂
