In other news...

Kittens are adorable, probably one of the most adorable things on this planet.

The only problem? They're ANNOYING AS FUCK. Especially if you're me, and you can't stand whining no matter what it comes from - human, animal, machine, anything. (Unless it's the whine of a supercharged engine...mmm...)

Well, I got a kitten on Saturday, and yes, he is cute as a button. But there is no way in HELL you'll ever hear me say "oh, he's perfect, never makes a peep at night" because he does not shut up when we put him up at night and try to go to bed.

This makes me remember the Border Collie we had last summer, who would bark and whine and howl at night, and do you know what we did with him? We gave him away at the end of the summer because I couldn't take it anymore.

I'm kind of feeling guilty at this point, because I don't want to take care of this little ball of fluff. He annoys me too much. The only thing that gives me comfort is the fact that, just like my last cat, he'll eventually grow up and stop being so annoying. The downside to that is he'll also stop being so cute, but I think I can handle it. My oldest cat, our fat calico, is still cute sometimes.

She also talks. A lot. Not quite like this little guy, though. She only gets mouthy when she wants food. I really really really hope this kitty doesn't turn out like that.

And, I've finally settled on a name. I think I've decided to name him Gizmo. I almost named him Inspector Gadget, but my parents would probably throat me...
