Alice in Wonderland and a New Cat
Mar. 11th, 2010 05:21 pmToday my obsessions haven't been as bad. Though I was a bit overloaded in the grocery store. My mother and I went to see the first showing of Alice in Wonderland since it's the cheapest. My brother was the one obsessed with going, but he said he didn't sleep well so he didn't come with us. I'm not really into 3D, but since everyone seems to be seeing this movie in that way, I was a bit curious about seeing it in 3D. I liked the movie. I also really like the original Alice in Wonderland books and have the recent annotated version.
Today I also decided I would adopt a cat. Even if Joey needs surgery or is sick, I was still thinking about getting a cat afterward. I just really felt like it was time to bring in a third. The cats I saw there were already numerously different from the cats I saw over the weekend (many adopted or transferred -- I'm so glad the 13 year old cat that couldn't be around children or other animals was adopted! She was half-price because they really wanted her to get a home). I ended up picking out a small, short-haired female orange tabby named Bunny. That got a little confusing at the desk, telling them which animal I wanted to adopt. Bunny was one of those cats given up because the owners were "moving"-_- They should take their cats with!
Bunny just became available for adoption yesterday. She was very affectionate and quiet. This time when I adopted they said to keep the new cat separate from the other cats for about a week, slowly introducing them to each other. Right now Bunny is set up in my backroom and there is a baby gate blocking the way. The baby gate idea was suggested to me at the shelter. My two cats could jump over it, but so far they've just been staring at it. Hopefully it will work. I'm supposed to take her to the vet in 1-2 weeks after adopting her, even though she just saw a vet and got shots, etc. yesterday>_< It feels so unnecessary... She doesn't need shots and I'm assuming they also did a fecal test on her. But I will see about doing that and annoyingly I have to pay $20 to change Bunny's microchip to have my information instead of her previous owners (who adopted her as a kitten from this place). Hopefully Bunny will adapt well. I'm glad she's here and Joey just sniffed at her through the carrier when I brought her in -- he didn't hiss, which is a good sign. Mrs. Bates won't be a problem because she ignores all other animals.
