It's not like we have all of the books yet, right? I don't have your book yet, for one!! It's not our fault that people keep writing more books!! And I miss having cats in the house so much. I wish we could get some.

This is why I don't walk to the back corner of the local Petco.

So many kitties back there!

I have a tiny place and want a dog (medium sized) really bad, pretty sure I would fall apart in an animal shelter.

Me at a shelter. Yes, I took one home, though not the one with me in that photo. The one that chose me is in the other photo, showing her skills.

As one whose wife brought cats home from a yard sale and a school field trip, I empathize.

I used to walk dogs there. It was so fun! You get to know lots of great pets and watch them move on to their new families.

Only a no-kill shelter. Otherwise, I'll be driving through neighborhoods begging ppl to adopt, with 20 animals squeezed in my car.

We must be related somewhere down the line. I'm absolutely sure of it.

Please come over to my house and pick up one of these former street cats, neutered and shots up to date. I will throw in up to three (3) paperbacks with each retired tomcat.

I have the PERFECT place for you! It's a little strip mall, just off the freeway.

It includes a Barnes & Noble, a PetSmart AND a Trader Joe's, (in case you need some wasabi peas to soothe you).

This sounds like me. I volunteer at our local animal shelter and I cry a lot.

one of our boys has vanished into thin air & we’ve spent a lot of time in area shelters, lately—just brutal
