PUSSY GALORE
I know this is pushing it, but I’m going to do it anyway. After all, it’s my blog and i can do what i want. I can write what i want, say what i want, do what i want! So with that said… Pussy Galore is like the hottest pilot to ever grace a cockpit in the said titled Bond flick. I know you’re like WTF where’s the connection? But here it is:: James Bond was addicted to both pussy and martinis. The latter being shaken, not stirred, of course. Which brings me to the point of this post: there is some serious Pussy Galore action happening right now. And I don’t mean 6 ft, blonde, leggy and scrumptious. No, more like 4 ft, hairy, short and really cute… kittens! CODE RED!!!!! CALL FOR BACKUP!!!! SOS!!!! HELP!!!! I have been dabbling in pussy cat rescue for years. Never, ever, have I witnessed a “kitten season” like this. There must have been some serious Jupiter action in Cancer early this spring when the felines got frisky. Because the maternity ward is full. Actually, it’s overfull and that’s the problem. I implore you to entertain the thought of bringing a little bundle of love into your life… yes, a kitten. The shelter that I am affiliated with actually had to unbelievably euthanize three litters of kittens
yesterday along with their moms. I am hearing the same stories everywhere. We are facing a dire problem: find homes or kill kittens. So please, if you’ve been toying with the idea of adoption, NOW IS THE TIME. Think about it… unconditional love, companionship, and emotional support… 24/7. Me personally, I’ll NEVER live without a cat, or cats, in my life. They really do make things that much more endurable. So, hell, adopt two! Everything is better in pairs. One martini or two? You’re going with two. Below is one of my favorite pieces of ephemera. Our cat-loving family friend Nancy gave it to my sister and since I turned out to be the cat lover in the family, I inherited it. Reminds me of another family friend I used to know, Vic. Like Nancy, he was a character. One of his many unique antics included teaching our cats how to swim. In case you don’t know, cats can swim if their lives depend on it, but really HATE water. What Vic was calling swimming lessons, was actually throwing each cat (we had like ten) into the pool and making sure they didn’t drown. Funny story, but really, not so funny. So should you (please!) decide to take my advice and adopt a kitten, keep it dry : )

I second that Gwenny! Millie has been a delight to have around the house. She has fully recovered from her respiratory infection and now has the run of the house. She’s so fun and even Franklin is (slowly) coming around.
