So tonight ought to be called: Night of a Million Mews
(that's the working title)
I've had a kitten on reserve for a few months now, looks like the black one, currently.

I received a call first from Stefan:
"Tim's getting a kitten and they might have an extra, just seeing if you'd be looking for one."

Then a msg from Kristina:
K: "I have a question for you when you get a chance:
My ex just called me, can I have a cat in the house? He's really friendly, just hasn't been to the vet since I got him and pukes all the time"
J: "Well -- My kitty is moving in sometime after the first. I want to make sure everything is cool, and that she's feeling secure before I got bringing another cat into the house." (besides the no-shots thing)
K: "Well it wouldn't be for another few weeks, anyhow... and I'm not so sure about the Vet part"

Then most recently a call from Jamie:
Jamie: "I have a big favor to ask... my RA just found my kitten, I need to get rid of her :("
Josh: "Does he at least have his shots?"
Jamie: "No, he's got nothing"
Josh: "Well he can stay here for a bit, but he'd need all his shots first -- I don't want anything bad to happen to him"

duck hunt (unrelated, but fun)

So I think the lesson is here:
Don't have a cat @ college. They're great and all, but get a legal pet... cats are not silent and give themselves away. Do yourself and the cat a favor and find a good home right off -- don't take the chance of keeping it there @ college. Nicole and Caitlin had a similar experience.

...and get your cat all their shots. It may cost money, and you may be bound and determined that you won't have any issues, and that they'll stay inside all the time. What happens in an emergency, though... what if they get out then get in a tiff with a wild cat? Not good... and your kitty will be sad because of it. Please take care of your animals :)
