All FH wanted for xmas was a kitten. I found an adorable one on petfinder and emailed the shelter (listed as Long Island) to ask about adopting it. They emailed back to say that it would cost $250 to adopt it because they post animals at kill shelters all over the country, and then have to pay to transport it to Long Island, or I could go to Tennessee to pick it up! So I emailed back thank you, but that is a bit pricey and we may just go to North Shore Animal League. They sent me a very rude email back saying it I don't want to pay the money I clearly shouldn't be making the commitment to have a kitten as they cost a great deal of money for food, check ups, litter, etc. All I wanted to do was adopt a kitten and now they go and make me feel so guilty about it.

Not sure where you are but we got Larry David at the NYCACC in Brooklyn and he was $80 to adopt (total). I'm positive the cats were a little cheaper, maybe $50?

Screw those people, what the hell happened to southern hospitality??

Your dog is so cute. Larry David is such a great
name.

I took your advice and said F you @sshats I'm going to get me a monkey instead! Hopefully one of those little ones that opens jars because they are so cool. On an unrelated note, at our xmas party last week I asked a friend why she went b!tchcakes about her shoes hurting and then wanted to dance. Finding more and more ways to use cakes...

Why yes I am! b!tchcakes never caught on though! As much as I tried! And this just brought up the memories for me, as I always had a thing for that boss guy on Newsradio.... Anyway, A CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR MONKEYLUV! IS THIS LEGAL?

go to the brookhaven animal shelter! Thats where my dad got our dog and he's a love! They put the animals to sleep. Also...there are adoptions at Petco every Sat. I think there is also a place on Main St in Smithtown just past the car dealerships but before the strip of bars/shopping area that has kittens/puppies
