I can has?

Well, it's been a long time coming, but I've finally broken down and gotten a pet. A cat named Roxy. She's an extremely sweet British Shorthair (just like happy cat!) that didn't work out for breeding (her first litter was delivered c-section), so the cattery put her up for adoption.




Ok, actually I can't get a good picture, because she's still hiding under the bed most of the time. But I thought it made a very meta macro.

But I DO have a picture from the cattery so you can see what she looks like...

Aw. What a beautiful tortie. I love how her head is larger and her face slightly flatter than on an American Shorthair's.

Ohhhh sweet baby! *falls in lurve*

Damn you laser cats Ann-sempai, damn you! You have brought out the big guns, and now the Mews will have to... to... come out and visit you!

...But not before Roxy comes out from under the bed. We don't want to traumatize her any more than the gang of us would already.

So cute, and so shy!!

(and yes, we know that they house is too small for a full-sized invasion. Doesn't curb the temptation, though!)

What eyes you have! This may sound weird, but she looks like Halloween to me. And was she already named Roxy, or did you dub her that?

(and that was a much more pleasant macro than the godzilla bukkake ones Warren Ellis has spawned, so... o_0;)

That macro is awesomely meta, hon.

Also, I melted. Meeeelted. Roxy looks like a total sweetie, and once she's warmed up and has started to come out and explore more, I bet you she'll be a very pleasant kitty. (I think most new kitties once they come home hide under the bed first! Cali and Mato both started out that way, and Mato still heads straight for the bed whenever the apartment is invaded, even if she already knows the invaders.)

So cute! Congratulations on having adopted your first furry thing!

D'awww! She looks so soft and fuzzy! And I love her beautiful coloring--and the one paw that looks like she stepped in black paint. So cute!

Roxy is a bit weird for a cat I suppose, but who am I to talk, I named one after a Musketeer, and the other after a constantly-quailing side character from a bad anime I was watching at the time (both names disturbingly apt, in the long run).

Seriously, and I even named Aramis after the wrong musketeer... he should have been Porthos I think, the wine-women-and-song one, not the surly old bastard one... I got confused as to which was which *sigh* wikipedia wasn't the tour-de-fource then that it was now.

You can always think of a nickname for her and leave her officially 'Roxy' but yeah, if you can end it in the same long vowel she's already used to she'll probably be more interested. I have no idea why but it works for dogs too. Looking at her cute little face I have this urge to dub her something 'adorable' like 'Lucy' or something. but i think that's just me being retarded. :-D
