I Haz Sekret Kitteh?
So, I’ve had a secret for the last few days. Some people know, and are excited about it. Some people know, and totally aren’t excited about it; those people are never being told a secret in advance EVER AGAIN.
And, of course, some people don’t know and are going to be really, really mad about it. Like, disowning their niece mad about it, right after making sure said niece has no option but to bus it down to St. Kilda and whore herself out to survive.
Which is why I’m only posting about it now.
Say hello to Rissa.
I saved her from a gutter one cold, windy day last week. She is a long-haired tortoiseshell, perfectly healthy, and has already been wormed, vaccinated and vet-checked. She lives in the back end of the house, unlike my mother’s cat, and is adorably friendly until you make a sudden movement.
Be gentle, oh-so-charming uncle of mine, king of all the lands, sir.

Hmmm … I have a chair set up in my garage, did you know that Eastern Energy give you one free power surge every month!! Come and vist, oh bring Rissa with you, I’d like to meat her!
You do remember that Aunti Vikki is allgeric to cats, if you keep this animal we can’t visit … there are a lot of problems attached to you having a cat Lisa. Your mother kept her cat because it was around before you moved into the house, new ones are NOT ALLOWED. I strongly suggest you give it to someone else …
Calling your Aunti would be a good idea too.

I was expecting another CATapult joke, heh.
Yes, I realise she is allergic to cats. Trust me, I don’t want to make that any worse. However, since Mum is now downstairs, Aunty Vikki is rarely (if ever) up the other end of the house, which is where the cat is. Also, Rissa has no reason to be anywhere else, unlike Shadow (who tends to want to be around Mum).
Still, the phone call will definitely be made.

I’m not really a cat person, more into dogs. But yay for you & your new lovely Rissa :)
