So things have happened since my announcement. Mom officially helped me buy the ticket to Canada and i'm actually leaving on the 6th and coming back on the 22nd. What kinda sucks is that I stop in Minneapolis and Seattle before finally arriving in Edmonton, but still, I think it'd be worth it to see him. And there may be something else developing in this situation
A few weeks ago, my roommate committed a selfless act of bravery and rescued an adorable Maine Coon kitten from being squished by a 15 bus. Since there were no signs around the area saying that anyone was missing said Maine Coon (and also because it was Midnight and he was drunk as hell), he dropped the kitten off at a friend's place. Days later, he discovers that his friend's cat isn't getting along with the kitten so we decided to try it out. After a few days, our cat Ricky and the new kitten (which has been dubbed Artemis) got used to each other. So we now have a new Maine Coon kitten until we can either find her owner or find her a better home. I tell this story to Lance and I discover that he was going to get a kitten but couldn't since it wasn't fixed. Suddenly the light bulb goes off in my head. If no one else is gonna take her in and we can't find her owners... then maybe I should take her up to Canada with me! I know there's gonna be a lot more money involved, but with everyone chipping in, it might help out at least a little. Plus since he's now living alone, it wouldn't hurt to have something to keep him company, and Artemis is definitely friendly enough.
Once again, it's just a thought.
