So, having found a link I-don't-even-remember-where last night, I randomly decided to make a pet over on GoPets. Not nearly so diverse in the pet-area as, say, NeoPets, but also much smaller, and a bit more interactive. A little like Gaea in ways, actually. Anyway, it's amused me for the better part of today. I have a little blue kitty named Karina and she's a cuteness. She was pouncing on a balloon and it kiiiillled me. (Tom and Haruna were laughing at me, but, it makes me happy, hee.) I was playing with that quite awhile today. :)

So I get home from work tonight, and what is on my back porch but a kitty! ^_____________^ A little calico I'd never seen before, who darted off before I could pet her (given that I was pushing my bike up the back steps, I don't blame her, heh)... but then was back later on when I went to look outside. She let me pet her this time, not terribly skittish, just normally cautious. Fairly young, I think, and no collar at all (though that's not uncommon, ours never did). No idea where she came from, there aren't supposed to be pets in these apartments, though I have seen an older woman tending gardens outside with her cat on a leash. (No cat I have ever known would allow that, omfg.) I pet her a few minutes, she kept wandering around and flattening herself beneath the little railing to peer over into the little garden-space between our upper porch and the neighbor's. She was a cute. She made my night. :)
