@WarKitty, seeing as you are a war kitty how many kitties do you command? Also what is your rank in the cat army?

My rank is HellCat. The rest is classified.

[Baby Gary]

can you write a de-classified memo about it? (U.S. political joke about stuff that happened today) also I am friends of the the emperor cat (his name has 'Augustus in it') so I have the right to know! Emperor Calvin will be displeased with you if you don't (the cat's first name is Calvin)

[Peelee]

Personally, I'm a fan of going to a no-kill shelter and asking who's been there a while. Or asking if there are cats at a foster home that don't show well.

My kitty is an absolute love-bug once she gets to know you, but she's very shy so she doesn't show well.

This is very admirable, but is also something I would have difficulty doing; cats don't have terribly long lives, and I bond so strongly that I want to maximize the time I have with them. It is a somewhat selfish desire, I recognize, but I have no regrets about getting my two guys as soon as they could be given away.

Fair enough. I personally like adopting young adults because you have a bit more idea of the personality you're getting.

Totally understandable. A big reason we got Titania was my wife wanted a snuggly cat, and while Erebus was quite snuggly at first, he evolved into wanting to be near us, but not touching us. And if we get too close, he'll move away. Titania turned into exactly what she wanted, though, so everything turned out perfect.

Especially because for all his lack of snuggles, Erebus may be the loyalest cat I've ever had. Always guards the door when I'm in the bathroom or sleeping (unless he decides to get on the mattress at the foot), always abandons whatever he's doing and runs down to the basement when he hears the garage door open to greet me, often moves rooms when i do just to stay near me, even wakes me in the gentlest, quietist way for their breakfast, and comforts and snuggles my wife if she's ever sad and crying. I love that little dude.

That's the advantage of going to a place that uses fosters too. A lot of fosters can tell you what the cat is really like in a home.

I, well my family, well mainly my mom and sister, are fostering some kittens for the local shelter until they are 2 lbs, so we have kittens through out kitten season. Also it taught me a lot about letting something go, I had these 5 kittens for about 2 weeks and I had to let them go, it was no easy thing. however it is really fun, and the bast part is that the shelter pays for veterinary expenses.

[The Cats]

Hrm, we don't remember recruiting you.

Though High General Rawr (the white one) does have a habit of imbuing kitties with great power without first running it past King Fasa (the unimpressed red one).

Or perhaps you're one of the agents of Spymaster Miaow's (the striped one)? Oh no that's silly. Everyone knows the KSC (Kitty Spy Corp) is an urban legend and doesn't really exist.

... you're not just a rogue duplicate of Nick'n'Dime (the grey one) are you?

Ummm....oh hey, yarn!

[The Cats]

Holy crap you guys it's yarn!

[Baby Gary]

I'm putting 10 balls of yarn on @WarKitty. She, being a war kitty, know strategy and many ways to beat cats in battle, some ways include: catnip, yarn, laser pointers, paper bags, human feet, the list goes on. GL @WarKitty

[The Cats]

Oh wadda you know Gary you're just a baby.

[WarKitty]

WarKitty realizes she really should set her gender in her profile one of these days.

[Niiohontesha]

Miou miouuww meoww mroww

[Niiohontesha]

Every time I host a D&D session one of my guy friends brings milk and praises my cat. "Milk for the cat god!"
He says it brings him good luck in the game.

Because I didn't see any gender I meant to say "(S)He", but I forgot, however I changed it. Sorry!

[Baby Gary]

Oh wadda you know Gary you're just a baby.

two things. 1) that was not that nice, 2) can I sig that?, 3) I know more than a cat!! (but not a kitten, kittens are the supreme leaders of the multiverse)

P.S. its actually three things!

[WarKitty]

PSA of the day: don't feed your kitties store-bought tuna! The mercury levels allowed for human consumption often aren't safe for kitties.

1. Cats are not required to be nice. 2. Yes. 3. I am not a cat. I am The Cats.

[Akisa]

Are you bred for War, or did you choose the warrior profession to be labeled as "War Kitty"

[Caribou3]

Why are some cats the most lovable, adorable and cuddly things whilst others are evil and aloof?

Same as people. Different personalities.

Oh crap. Do you have a link to a study? Or a suggestion on better tuna to feed my cat? (He really likes the tuna water).

what about cats? I was just wondering because you said 'kitties'

[2D8HP]

WarKitty,

I went delving into threads from before my time at the Forum and I think that your Sig:

"Hail to the Lord of Death and Destruction!
CATNIP FOR THE CAT GOD! YARN FOR THE YARN THRONE! MILK FOR THE MILK BOWL!"

came from a completely awesome de-railment of a thread of yore:

CATNIP FOR THE CAT GOD! MILK FOR THE MILK BOWL!

Maybe put a link in your sig, so other newcomers may find it?

Any other "threads of yore" that you recommend?

Look up Lanky Bugger's threads. Seriously.

I think I just dealt with the worst gaming session


New Worst Session: How Lanky got hisself stabbed!



My tales of woe pale in comparison.

[WarKitty]

Occasional tuna is ok, just not very often. May I recommend trying clam juice? You can generally find it in bottles in the supermarket. Get low-sodium if you can.
