Listening to the Voices in My Head

To save my lemongrass, I got some cat grass and cat nip for Loki to gnaw on. Yes, he likes lemon grass, to the point he will stand with his front paws on the planter, meow at me. Then he waits for me to find some fresh soft blades for him to chew on. Maybe now the lemongrass will 'shrub out' a bit more.

After donating some food, kitten milk, pouches of food and a feeding dish to CatHaven, we got some items they were selling for their fund raising. Got a new CatHaven mouse pad, a CatHaven coffee mug, aikidomayland got a CatHaven baseball cap, and we got a feathery toy for the fur kids. They like the feather toy very much as it floats and flutters. :) Also bought two large cans of food at the fundraiser to be giving to up to 4 cats for their "Christmas Dinner".

The CatHaven is almost filled to capacity, and when you read why... "Rent went up, can't afford to feed him/her" or "Had to move and new landlord said no pets." These aren't youngun's either. 6 yr old, and up weren't uncommon. :/ Was all I could do not to take one very chatty boy home.

It was marvelous to watch a master barrista at work. Coffee was plentiful, varied and extremely yummy. I think I am going to adopt him (and all of his extended family). Yes, the coffee was that good. And pretty, yes?



I brought a 'coffee cake' still warm from the oven. Was yummy and descended upon.

Japster found out the down side of getting chocolate on his hands, as delicious_irony and his lady decided to clean the 'offending' chocolate off of his hands.
( What friends are for? )

Went back to Cat Haven for a few reasons. To donate some catfood, and to pick up a new friend for Keito. We took Keito to our vet, and he was just so disconnected and apathetic... until he saw the Abyssinian we were considering adopting. Keito tried to hide in a 2 inch gab behind the counter. But it snapped him out of his stupor, and he finally ate. Vet suggested that we get him a younger companion, and we have. It's a crappy picture, because the little mite refused to stand still. ( Kitten pic spam )

He is being de-sexed tomorrow morning, and will be here tomorrow late afternoon. aikidomayland thinks that this means I am saying Affy is gone forever. Not true. Should Affy come ambling up the drive way, it will mean we have a bouncing houseful, and a very pissed off Affy. Hey, that will be what he gets for pulling a disappearing act.

Archery today was touch and go, due to threatening rain. I managed to get some great rounds in preparation for next weeks Bare bow shoot next Sunday. aikidomayland was most impressed by my groupings and consistency. Just hope I don't choke next Sunday.
