My friend Croque has finally convinced her husband to get a dawg. They pick up the treasure tomorrow afternoon, and I want to be the first to welcome him to his new and wonderful life with the loveliest of families! I love you, Hugo! (Name pending husband approval.)
The comforts of his own home.

Arthur is right now sprawled out on top of a pile of clean laundry I have yet to put away, in part because I’m lazy and in part because it is Arthur’s favorite place to sleep when I’m working in bed. (When I’m in the living room, he’s abandoned his cat condo for an old [...]

Tonight I had my tutoring job after work, and then I met old friends for drinks, and I came home later than I have all week. My sweet Arthur (aka Parthenon aka the Panther aka Artemis aka Artsy Fartsy aka Arturo aka Parthy) was distraught. I could hear his soft mews through the door as [...]

When I moved into this apartment, I thought I’d hit a goldmine. Laundry in the building! No more lugging seven loads of laundry (because I always put it off till I absolutely have to do it) to the laundromat in the morning so they could have it ready for me when I got home from [...]

I can’t write much because I am totally absorbed by the newest addition to my family, King Arthur, who arrived several hours ago and has been causing me uninterrupted joy ever since. I don’t know what this cat’s previous foster family was thinking. How could they give up such a lovely cat? He spent the [...]

My lovely foster cat arrives this weekend! His name is Tiny, but I plan to call him Arthur, unless by some strange stroke of Genius Cat Syndrome the guy actually responds to his name. Meet Arthur: Before he arrives (not yet sure exactly when), I need to pick up food, litter and all of that [...]
Here, kitty kitty.

I just got another email from the cat shelter, which is desperate to find a foster for a cat named Tiny. I’ve been putting this off because I wanted to prepare my apartment, but it’s pretty much ready now, at least for a cat. I responded positively to the email, and ever since, I’ve just [...]
Shelf life.

I am getting far enough along in my apartment-settling process that I might be willing to post a few pictures soon. In the past two days, I’ve made huge progress in the living room. Last night I moved the bookshelves (which I acquired in my last apartment from the people moving out) that were flanking [...]
