Amusing, and sad

Was reading Ring for Jeeves the other day and burst out laughing. Colonel Aubrey Wyvern's third-rate domestic staff are named Trelawny and Bulstrode.

Also, Happy Birthday [personal profile] raitala! And happy birthday for tomorrow, [personal profile] draykonis.

In sad news, Min cat is now out of chances and is living out her last weeks with all the salmon she can fit in.  The lovely vet assistant from the uber vet dropped round her pain meds this evening. She doesn't need them tonight, but it's good to have them. Poor brave kitty.

It's interesting, isn't it? Min's been from pillar to post, possibly under her own steam, but she's been happiest of all with you, and it must be an enormous comfort to her to know she's somewhere that peope love her. There are a lot of people who don't have that.

She has been sitting on our feet. Which, in Min, means either "Mine" or "Do you have any food you are not using?"

Yes, I do feel guilty for expending all of this emotional energy on a cat and not a foundling, but if a foundling had appeared in my garden and adopted me, I like to think I would have treated him or her at least as well!

I for one don't doubt it at all.

Though I might well have been tempted to improve the facilities in the laundry just for when we needed a quick weekend away ... It's better than wandering the streets!
