Pawprints: TLC
TLC? Well yeah, you didn't think you just bring the kitty home, and the sum of your relationship/responsiblity is just to provide grub and water, shove litter, did you? btmao and I've learnt a fair bit during these 8 years of servitude - that doesn't make us experts of course, but we'd like to share and learn somemore too. And it's surprising how some of the simplest things need to be told - we've had that plenty of times, and since we're rather average cat minions, we're sure our brethren has, like us, gotten surprises over some of the most basic things before too. We don't know about you, but some of the impact has gotten us thinking about crash-test-dummying as a side career. Anyway, here's a list of our rants and raves on Tender Loving Care for them-who-lords-it-over-us.
