Kitty surprise
Well, over the past weekend I was ensconced in the Biokinetic medical study facility. Played a lot of City of Heroes, when I could get their Internet connection to work. It was fine most of the time, but there were some periods where it cut out on me. (Though only the CoH connection seemed to be affected, not my terminal sessions.) I'm posting this from my laptop as I haven't had the time to set my desktop computer back up since the trip back from BioKinetic.
I arrived home this morning to find various spots of cat barf and cat poo on my floor, my blankets, and my pillows. It seems the neighbor I had entrusted with taking care of my cats fed them, due to a misunderstanding, not the food I had left on the table for them, but the food I had given to him to keep for his own cats due to my cats not liking it very much (or perhaps being allergic to it). Also, he apparently didn't empty the litterbox very often (at all? I'll have to talk to him about that before next weekend).
I went ahead and bought new pillows and a new sheet set (as my other sheet set was already in the laundry from when my cat barfed on it the first time I fed her such food) and I'll try to do the laundry tomorrow. I can't do it tonight, because I will shortly be heading out to the fair to see "Weird Al" Yankovic in concert.
For now, I'm going to go in my room and see what I can do about the cat mess on my bed.

Yes, when they get to that state, it IS yelling.

When we go on trips now, they are always shut out of the bedroom. And we put out an extra litter box, just in case. For trips of less than a week, we don't even have someone come in to check them- just dig out the automatic feeder and waterer with enough food and water to last them 2 months. ROFL I'm not exaggerating in the least about how long it lasts, either. 2 out of 3 cats are MUCH happier being alone than to have a stranger come in to check on them. And said stranger would have to crawl on hands and knees to peer under and behind furniture to make sure they were still alive, anyway. ;)
