Kitty Report ...

How could I resist a pour little kitty?

I am in need of some professional examinations I think ... this is my 4th rescue in just a little over two years ... Mojo the leopard gecko rescued 18 months ago ... Lily the AMAZING dog rescued last October, Banu the ball python rescued last month ... all our pets now.

AND NOW .... the little hisser (kitten) found day before yesterday ... initially placed in protective custody, confined quarters (to protect it from its self) in a cat carrier by some incredibly courageous friends, until I got off work that evening.

I knew I was facing trouble when the perfect name for the little hisser came forward. Solid black kitty surviving in our "mean streets" neighborhood to even be found ... magic, pure magic ... kitty, black kitty ... black magic ... kitty name ... Voodoo!

There is no such thing as a free pet ... NO SUCH THING AS FREE PETS ... this is what I kept telling myself. There are a lot of good people out there. Our common thread is LOVE. I am one of those good people (sucker that I must be). The owner must miss this cute kitty.

So I sent out the prayer requests to my friends, for me .... that the owner shows up fast (posted on craigslist and the local paper, signs around the hood too) ... if there is no owner ... who wants this incredibly cute little hisser?

It is sad that I have received 7 inquiries from cat owners ... their cats all missing ... 6 of them missing in my "mean streets" neighborhood. Not a single question about "the little hisser" ... Voodoo, that I have taken in. Hum?

It turns out that Voodoo is one mean little MOFO at this moment in time. I don't think calling "IT" Angel would help either. This little "IT" just might have been wild in my "mean streets" neighborhood? No Way!!!!!

If I were CRAZY I would certainly considering keeping "IT" as "IT" has emerald green eyes, potentially a little black fuzz ball with EMERALD GREEN EYES ... come on, that is cute.

I have four friends already in line for "IT", if the owner misses "IT". Hum? I will have to write up a "NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGES" contract for the SUCKA who takes "IT".

We housed "IT" in my son's bathroom last night and "IT" immediately took full residence. It was impressive that such a little ball of fur could create such an intense presence. This little "IT" was totally working the hostile energy angle. It was so clear that "IT" was totally freaked out and willing to mirror this at just about anyone who tried to care.

I left "IT" alone with food, water, a litter box, a fuzzy blanket and good vibes.

During the night I was aware of some amazing sounds coming out of the bathroom. At one point I wondered if a kitty that size could really create that much noise (damage) in such a small room.
"IT" could create that much noise (damage) in such a small room.

I felt like room service this morning for a cranky ... high maintenance rock star as I scanned the room that "IT" had totally destroyed ... potpourri (weird word), rock salt, q-tips and cotton balls EVERYWHERE. The trash can was knocked over and ... "IT" uses a cat box at least.

I cleaned the bathroom for "IT", placed fresh bedding in the tub for "IT", removed "sh"IT" for "IT" from the cat box, replenished food and water for "IT", "IT" let me touch "IT" for a second and then "IT" went VORTEX on me ... I RAN from the room before "IT" could get me ... !!! ... closing the door tightly behind me and in front of "IT" ... stating ... HOLY "SH"IT" !!!! as I ran down the hall with my broom and my cleaning supplies causing a racket for the other sleeping guests across the hall.

This is not my line of work.
