Who Are You and What Have You Done to Kristina?
I'm a dog person. I don't have anything against cats, but usually I like dogs better. Which isn't to say that I haven't met some cats of which I've been very fond--I used to work at a vet's and at a kennel, and I got to know some of the regulars and I can still remember their faces and personalities some twenty years later.
Possibly my view of cats has been coloured by the memories of my mother's last cat, who bit and scratched and considered the dining room her litter box. She was a cute little thing, but, man, she was a bitca.
So imagine my surprise at finding myself in a PetSmart at lunch today looking at their cats from the Ottawa Humane Society. There was a mostly black (because all my pets--even my horse in high school--have been black) two-year-old female there who was very playful. She couldn't get enough of my keychain or my glasses or my finger (but she didn't scratch!) and she even licked me.
I am this -> <- close to calling the store and asking them to put her on hold for me.
*sigh*
I think her name should be Mabel.
