Welcome to the Tuesday Coffee Hour here on Street Prophets. This is an open thread where we can hang out and talk about what’s going on in our worlds. I have heard some vague rumors that some of the people here might possibly share their home with cats, commonly called pooties. Thus I thought it might be interesting to do a pootie roll call.
Let me start with the newest member of our household: a four-year old long-hair black pootie who came to us with the name of Talley. She spent about 8 months living in an animal shelter after her human died. She came to live with us on Friday.
Since we were not at home, Talley spent the first couple of days with us in the motorhome. While she was very cautious at first, we put down a pootie pad and then ……. She went wild.
Talley had been an only cat and so her introduction into a multi-pootie household was a bit traumatic. Ben-Bob, who is on Prozac and would be considered autistic if he were fully human, has been fascinated with her and really wants to be friends. Jack and Jill have taken a “ho-hum” approach, though Jill, who is in charge of the house, growls at her to show her who is boss.
Now it’s time for the roll call: what pooties are you living with.
