So apparently, all those months ago, when we neutered the little boys, we didn't get to them soon enough. As I was feeding them this morning, I found four infant degus in the cage.

That brings us up to seventeen. What in the heck are we going to do?

Question of the Day: What's the most interesting surprise you've ever woken up to?

QotD: I've had quite a few good surprises but I think few beat being a kid and waking to find that I had a Voltron. The Metal one, not the junky plastic one. It wasn't Christmas or my birthday. Just a school day like any other. I woke up and sitting in my chair was Voltron. As a kid, that was pretty awesome.

heh, last year I woke up to this disgusting fleshy crunching noise, and rolled over to see what it was. My cat was eating a bird right beside my head on the pillow. ew.

You must have been visited by the Voltron fairy.

QotD: Actually I woke up today to find our town had been trashed by a really bad storm. Apparently I slept through it. There are trees uprooted all over my neighborhood. The grocery store I work at didn't have any power so I spent most of my shift helping the stockers get all the items up and then I got to go home about 3 hours early.

@Fluffy. Your cat comics are great. :lol: I love how the other cat doesn't even move.

QOTD: Although a BJ is always a nice wake up call, I'd have to say that my best surprise to wake up to is...............
........you know, I'm going to just go with the BJ. :P

Though Greg was kinda cute... as long as the Bear stayed out of the room, I think it'd be okay, heh.

Somewhat related is this present from my cat that I found near her food cabinet tonight. I didn't hear any ruckus as I was recording upstairs with headphones on, and I can't find the rest of the present. Perty grody. Mia's present.

Mia probably ate the body, and saved the best part for you.

My family once had a cat who would just eat the heads off the mice and rabbits in our back yard and would just leave the bodies around to rot.

Yeah, I thought she might've eaten the body, but expected some more leftovers to be around, I guess. Weird about your cat doing it backwards!

Generic, we have different views of what is 'cute'.
