story starter...

i feel like a kinked water hose these days -- all the great stories of things that have been happened are just building up and the pressure is getting more and more... without blowing you away with the force of my stored up bransonian goings-on, i'll give you just one of those stories and hope it suffices for now.
soon, you'll be inundated beyond tolerance and might all stop reading. but tell you them i must. it's a compulsion. i'll start slow with some recent happy animal happenings.

first let me introduce you to fantasia.

from the hooded look of her eyes you might guess that she's a street cat, with low morals and a jaded outlook... she came to me, single and knocked up, permanantly implanting herself in my carport, claiming the rights to all cat food and ear scratching that my other outside cat, tozer, was getting. fantasia successfully scared tozer off with deliberate and vehement chasings, then gratefully took over her territory. nick chose her name, an appropriate corner hustler type name, i thought.
her hard luck story has a happy twist -- she had 4 tiny kittens a couple of weeks ago! and she's transformed into the most doting of mother.
she's on her way up, folks.
here's ransom pendragon, the biggest headed one -- he reminds me of an ewok. he's nick's favorite so he named him.

here's my favorite, asia. named after her mother and also on account of the cutest little chinesey eyes she had before they opened... she's the littlest and cutest, of course. i'll be keeping her.

and then there's yellow & white twinsies named malcolm & milo -- here's one of them (who knows which...)

i love them, also... i think they need to go to somebody's home together -- they're too cute to be split up.

so there's the story teaser to get you started. i'll wait to inundate you with them all so as to let you enjoy them slowly... hopefully nothing else will happen that will be story-worthy or else i'll be forever behind...





p.s. the turtle must've gotten the memo that i'm collecting animals...
