Test Drive

Sorry that I haven't updated. Have been super busy. Trying now to get home chores done before tackling the road. Haven't made it out to Wayside Waifs yet. Still hoping to get out there today.

Two boys are hanging out with me right now. Casper and Max. They are orange and white, about 10 months old. A co-worker of MegMacB has been fostering the duo. I e-mailed the foster parents and this morning it was decided to have the boys stop by for a visit and to hang out a few hours.

Max is very inquisitive and very captivated with the human toilet. Almost interrupted me midstream (sorry for the details). Something Epster never gave a second thought about. He's a lap cat and requires attention. Casper is more of a spook (thus, the name), and has spent the last hour mostly hiding in the laundry room. However, I did see him wandering around a bit ago. They are both long and bigger than my monster. They are wrestlers too. Both are awfully cute.

Not certain I could handle two. A moment ago Max was hopping on the coffee table and I slipped and called him Eponine. I wonder if these guys would even have a desire to blog? I made the foster mom and dad promise they'd come back by early afternoon to pick them up. Still want to check out Doc and a few others before making any decision.

Check out Mr. Peebles. According to the University of Missouri Vet School magazine, it was thought that this 3.1-pound creature was "the runt of the litter." Then it was determined he's actually two years old and fully grown. MU's article says that in the summer of 2005, Guinness officially presented the "Smallest Living Domestic Cat" World Record to Mr. Peebles, replacing the previous record holder, Itse Bits, who weighs about 3.3 lbs., depending on whether he had just eaten.

These two might hold world records, but I bet neither of these cats have blogs.
