My wife and I got back home from our Thursday night childbirth class and a grey cat comes running up meowing. The cat had a collar on so I decided to check it out since he looked a bit skinny. His name is Cinder and his collar had our address as his home. The old owners of the house failed to mention that they were abandoning their cat. Luckily, there is a cat door on the garage so I will put food and water in the garage. I will probably put a blanket under my work bench. We already have 3 indoor cats and a baby on the way. Cinder will be my alley cat.
When I was unpacking and organizing my garage I did notice some old cat food so I should have known there would be a visitor.

My name is Steve and don't start with busting on Quinn. You have heard of Quinn Snyder and Quinn Buckner. It took us quite awhile to come to an agreement. I don't think Quinn is a bad way to go. I can't wait until you get married Turd and have to name a child. That day will come and I can't wait to hear all your bitching.

i think the only kid that's suitable for you is a still born then because every kid does all of the above.

Turd, you wait my man. The childbirth class is wild.....full of women bursting at the seams almost looking like they are ready to give birth any minute. They show movies of women giving birth, c-section surgery, the placenta being removed and on and on. Just ask some of the current Papas on the board. If you can get through coaching the baby's birth a little projectile vomit and shit on the hand is nothing.

God, the video girls had to watch when we were 15 in health class where they showed a live birth has got to be the best way to convince people to stick to abstinence-only. OW. and EW.

Name your kid Lessley and he will learn how to fight real quick. School kids these days are ruthless.

cats are cool

I had an alley cat pet for a couple weeks last summer, he is now happily adopted and completely content with being an indoor cat....he's fat too!

I just saw another feral cat outside my place, she came up caught my attention, but kept running away when I called and followed her...she would stop, meow, and look back at me as if I was the one running away! cats love playing mind games

My middle name is Lessley and I pack a solid punch. Lessley is a great great great grandfather's last name that has been handed down over the generations. I really thought of stopping it with me but my wife is insistant that it go on. Middle names aren't really advertised so I think he will be OK. And if he has trouble I am a good trainer.

And the cat........he must have been taken to the vet. He has a collar with our address and is friendly. The neighbor just told me that he was a stray the old owners adopted and let in and out of the garage.

I haven't heard that name used for a male before.

My great-great-great grandfather was Laurie. Thankfully, my sister got that one (spelled differently).

But now that I think about it, being a guy named Laurie might be kinda cool.

you might want to contact the old owner of your house if you can. it's possible that they didn't abandon the cat, but rather the cat escaped from their new home and came "home" to the old house. it happens all the time. cats have been known to travel 100s of miles to end up at old residences. they are very territorial in that way.

Cinder the cat is still around and I doubt he escaped and came back home. They moved to Corpus Christie Texas. I am in the northern Panhandle and it is at least a 8 or 9 hour drive. The cat would have to be a camel to make that trek in the Texas heat. He is fine. I have been feeding him and I put a cat bed under my workbench. He has a cat door on the garage and comes and goes as he pleases.

the cat knew it would have a cool new owner so it decided to take a vacation from the previous owners and come back when you moved in.

I know someone named Les.
You probably wouldn't have the balls to call him Lessely to his face, one of the toughest people I've ever known.
Dude made it through 3 years up north with that name.


Where Canada? Are you implying that Canadians don't like people named Les??
