That included his first round of shots and neuter. My kitty seems to cost more than my puppy now because there is litter to buy, litter poop collection bin things and of course food. And crack. BLAZE! has a nasty habit. But omg, girl, those kitties are so cute. You know I loves the kitties. BLAZE! was $60, I think. That included his first round of shots and neuter.

Me lub da kitty kat. I have a similar issue. I've been trying to come to a decision by summer whether to get a kitty or a pupply, preferably a siamese or a pug. you've turned me on to the idea, by the way quite some time ago and i haven't yet decided what to do. Don't worry about the grandpop thing. You can't miss or mourn what you never had. I felt the same about my grandpop when he passed away and I saw him weekly. Call me and I will fill you in on some things. I absolutely love your writing. You should be writing for a mag or newspaper. Hell, write a book. Pitch a show for TV. You're the best! When I'm down, I check out your blog. It always cheers me. I will contribute $50 to your cat fund. Me lub da kitty kat. I have a similar issue.

(so i've been told), but not into that thing where they bring stuff in from the outside like mice eekkkk or other little presents. and plus its hard to make a cat a 'house cat' e.g litter boxes etc.. yuk dogs need more care and attention.. SO i've narrowed it down to a house rabbit... not as smelly as cats and dogs and because I have a nice outdoor patio can live outside in the summer and inside in the winter..plus bills will be v low (veggies for dinner etc..)

Kitteh--Just so you know...if you go to the Lurie Center (where I had Sophie snipped) the cost is much more minimal for the spay/neuter, chipping, and shots. If you want to go to Iowa with me some weekend, the shelter there is quite a bit cheaper than the ones here in chicago. i paid $25 for freeway and $50 for pisceous (because she was already snipped and they paid for it). My only caution against male kittehs is that they have far more instances of urinary tract issues (infections, blockages, etc.) and that can get very costly because if one occurs, you have to get them to an emergency center ASAP because it can be fatal. We can barter kitteh sitting duties if you'd like! PS--harlie de fuzz is my fave. 2. You must dish about the foodstuff on Friday...I wants to hear about the FOODS! As for your grandfather...I don't think you should feel wrong or bad for not feeling anything. How can you feel something for someone you've never known? It's like expecting you to feel sadness for every stranger who ever passes away. Letting your aunt know you're sorry for her loss is plenty--and honestly, chances are she's probably feeling her emotions so much right now she won't really question yours, you know?

And it's understandable, given your relationship with your dad. I'd say don't feel like you HAVE to mourn and if you end up mourning all the sudden, don't be freaked out by it either. As long as you're able to help others, I think it's all good. Just flow. And as for the KITTEAH! They're kinda like kids in behavior (getting into everything, demanding attention, scratching the hell out of you sometimes), but you can leave them for a couple of days alone with food and water without Social Services coming to visit.
