Danila's real name is Joey, but the receptionist at the vet thought that it was Danny, so using that incorrect information, we've taken to calling him the Russian equivalent of Danny anyway.

I'm the cat mommy version of Rebecca de Mornay from The Hand that Rocks the Cradle (talk about dating myself ( Read more... )

I'm a bit behind on the new foster cat posts, but it's not like anyone knows that we have a new foster anyway (unless you follow me on Instagram, I guess).
