Crazy cat lady in the making

A couple weeks ago, I became the temporary advocate for a tiny kitten that scampered into my life.

While I was waiting for the Humane Society to open (that's right, it opens at NOON here), I snuck the kitten in my room, unbeknownst to my allergic roommates.

You're going to hear me talking, but I PROMISE I never speak to real people like this.  This voice is reserved for babies, animals and more often than not, my food.

It's 13 seconds.  Humor me, won't you?

He's so cute! He looks like the only cat I ever had. His name was Henry.

I'm pretty sure you've used that voice on me a time or two... =) But I'm basically like a giant kitty anyway. I rove you.

So cute......this totally makes me want a kitten.

...and then I remember all the sneezing and pain this guy would case me and that wish goes right out the window.

Ed said...

He's a cutie. And I'm totally not a cat person. You should of kept him.

I love kittens. This little one is simply adorable. And don't feel bad, some of my favorite people (like my mother) are crazy cat ladies.

i have the same voice reserved for just about any dessert a la mode.

Bathwater said...

I want to hear you talking to a fully load pizza that way. You didn't end up keeping Charlie, how sad.

foxy said...

Hahaha... I totally want to see you talking to a big ole plate of spaghetti and meatballs that way!

I have to say i'm not a fan of cats...but that lil kitten is too cute for words!

And i think animals only understand us if we use that "voice." :)

Fun blog you have here!

WAIT. I can't see it. OMG. There is just a big white box where a video should be.

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG. Fix it now, BLogsbian. I am unraveling as each second passes that I don't see this.

SurferWife said...

Holy Shit. You sound like a cartoon character from the 1940's.

This is epic.

I hope Elephantia gets your voice.

Christina said...

ADORABLE!

I need a kitten cuddle, ASAP.

Kay said...

OMIGOSH ADORABLE OVERLOAD!

I love yournotyour cat.

I have a special place in my heart for orange tiger cats—especially if they're in kitten form.

SoundsLikeCanada said...

Cutie!

I, too, have a really (probably annoying) specific animal voice. When we finally get a dog, it's going to get bad.

Salt said...

Awwwwww I LOVE HIM! I wish you had kept him.
Your voice is no worse than the one I use to talk to my guys. I sound like a psycho.

jules said...

HA HA HA HA HA! I love that voice! And that "giant kitty,"

Hey Sara, here's something that might not be okay. Some weird old lady in Georgia loves you and thinks you should write a book if you haven't already.

I, like so many others find you delightful and a flippin crack up! Keri
