Is all that was written on the box of kittens dumped at our clinic this morning. Anybody need a kitten or 4?
3 female (one black, 2 matching tuxedos) and one male (orange tabby).



In other news...

Someone from DirecTV/TV solutions called back about taking me off the advert list. Woman needs my address...which they obviously already HAVE or I wouldn't be receiving mailings, yes? Anyway, she left a message asking me to call back. Gave me her name and extension and everything... EXCEPT the phone number. I am yet more impressed with the customer service.



And a blurb from Newsweek:

What are the odds?
Heart disease is scary. So is mad cow disease. But only one of them is a good reason to give up beef. Your chance of getting heart disease in the next year is 1 in 250, compared with less than 1 in 10 billion for mad cow.

I contacted him and he says he'll pass. He ideally wants a polydactyl and is worried he might not click with these guys after the long trip. So it looks like no luck... Maybe we can do a Thurs-Fri (drive back Sat morn) thing someday though... Compromise. :)

Well hell, I had a polydactyl in a bit ago, but only one--don't know if she's still available; really sweet and tiny (6 pounds) young adult female with 7 toes on each front foot. Dubbed her Thumbelina. Yellow and brown tabby. I can see if Lorraine still has her if he is interested.

As for the long trip, well, I gotta bring the kennel back anyway--so if it's got cats in it instead of empty, oh well. Just means I've gotta pick 'em back up on the way out of town.

I think he's more concerned about the trip being stressful for them. I think he may be a bit too sweet natured to go with our theory of "tough luck kitty, you're alive." I'm not going to push, I've really only had a few short conversations with him - enough to know he's very nice and any cat that moves in with him is lucky - but that's about it.

Heh. What if you tell him I'm bringing them to Seattle anyway, and he might as well meet them?

Lol! I don't know... He's ocicat on LJ - track him down and ask! :) I really think he's looking for a polydactyl and that he's got something in particular in mind.

Alrighty then... I'll track him down :)
