About time.
Apr. 30th, 2006 01:46 pmWe're (finally) getting a cat.
Her name is Vivi.
She's Siamese.
She's a rescue kitty from Arizona, because my sister can't stand to see abused cats who don't go on to good homes.
She's apparently terrified of everything, though she's relatively docile if you actually catch her. She'll just stare at you pathetically.
In related news, I get to see my sister for the first time in a year in mid-May--she's coming up here for a vacation. Yay! *dance*

Going from not being able to remember a time when my family didn't have at least one cat to not having one at all for a long period of time left me with horrible kitty-withdrawal, so I definitely understand. Cats are worse than heroin, I swear. XD
My sister and I deserve a smiting for punning his name that badly. It was a sign of things to come. XD

Date: 2006-04-30 06:51 pm (UTC)I'm not sure exactly what color her eyes are--my sister's Siamese Kagerou actually has blue-grey eyes, and I've seen Siamese cats with violet eyes too. Hopefully in a few weeks I'll be able to put up pictures--provided Vivi doesn't run away from the camera.

Date: 2006-04-30 07:16 pm (UTC)Yeah, it kind of does. Neither my sister or I are good with talking on the phone, so we don't call each other all that often and when we do it's usually:
"So then."
"Yeah."
"Uhhhh..."
"..."
"Did you have anything else to say?"
"Not really."
"Oh. 'Kay. Bye then."
"Bye."
