I've never had a pet quite like this.

[kittycat_claws]

It appears that my new charge has a tendency of finding very strange things and hiding them behind his litter box. First it was a silver fork, then a small stuffed animal that might've once been a turtle, and now I've uncovered what looks like a battered copy of a Harlequin novel.

Either someone is sneaking into my apartment and leaving some

No, no, see:

Secretly, when you're gone, your cat snuggles up in your bed with a plate of fish (hence the fork), a harlequin novel, and its favorite snuggly toy. Just for some R'nR after bein' cute and fuzzy all day.

You just always come in, and he has to rush to hide all the evidence.

..or you know, your cat could just like batting things around, and that's where they always end up getting stuck.

I could be anthropomorphizing him. A little.

You could also be overthinking this while simultaneously overlooking the possibility that my cat is simply a few cans short of a six-pack.

And he's still nameless. Bah!

[soulmanifesto]

*snort* I guess you really could name him after me if you're that strapped for ideas.

I'm sort of fond of namin' my stuff after Shakespeare's works.. but that's just me.

[kittycat_claws]

I had a named for him picked out due to his eccentricities reminding me of an old friend, but now I find that I can't use that name. It's unfortunate.

Shakespeare, eh? I'm not as well-versed in the Bard as I'd like to be. If you could think up anything suitable for him, I'd be much obliged.

Are you sure you didnt put the items in there to make cleaning out the box more interesting?

[kittycat_claws]

Unless I did it while sleepwalking, I can't imagine myself doing that. I'm sure there are other things I can do to spice up the mundane events of my life.

Well, as long as your cat doesn't decide to climb into household appliances, I don't think you have too much to worry about. (My brother's cat nearly got himself killed when I was doing laundry.)

[kittycat_claws]

Oddly enough, when you mentioned household appliances, my first thought was a blender. My mind is too bloody for my (or my cat's) own good.

[cigs_n_sarcasm]

Well...I think the cat was a bit too big to fit in the blender, and it would also be impossible to start it without noticing the animal in there.

And considering I get in fistfights every other day and have been known to witness gang wars without flinching, I have no right to say anybody else's mind is too bloody.

[soulmanifesto]

..When I read this, the blender was also the first thing that came to mind.

.. I think maybe we've been watching to many horror flicks.
