Meoowww

The past couple weekends my family has gone to adoption events at various pet stores and organizations, since we are trying to find a nice dachshund to rescue. This morning, though I felt that it would be prudent to stay home and write some college essays, I went too, expecting to go to a local Petsmart, see some cute puppies and come back home. We went to the Petsmart, saw some cute puppies (one bit me), but decided after that to go to another one to see the dogs they had there. There were no dogs, but there were cages full of cats. We ended up taking home this cute, young black long-haired. (I wanted a short-haired grey cat, but I put him down to hold one for my mom and some other family decided they would adopt him first!!) Now I am stuck in my mom's bathroom, watching the cat. We're leaving the cat in here while she gets used to being somewhere new and used to her litter box and I was so lucky as to get the job of sitting in here with her while she does that. It's been over an hour already and I don't think I'm coming out any time soon - my mom said she'd bring my dinner up to me. It's becoming pretty difficult to amuse myself. I can't play with the cat because she's a little flinchy, and I was happy I got the laptop, but then I realized that it's useless unless I also have my backpack and I don't have that or a way of acquiring it. The cat has been meowing constantly (it's so cute!) for a while and I started meowing too to the tune of a Beach Boys song (the same as the title of yesterday's post) but that only increased the cat's meowing to a loud screaming type thing. Prolly not a good idea to freak the cat out. I've done that enough by jumping around every time she jumps on the counter and yelling "Peeshee! Get off the counter!" or moving plants around so she can't eat them. I moved some long ivy-like vines out of her reach and she hissed at me.

I'm out of the bathroom now. My sister volunteered to take my place, being very unaware of the severe impending boredom. Haha at her. Now I have my backpack and it's time for me to begin working on other junk. Like figuring out which character of the Justice League I want to be for a homecoming spirit day.
