sigh, part the second

I'm getting to the point where I'm going to have to flip a coin between cat-shelter frustration (apparently the fact that I already have a cat makes me an incorrigible serial axe murderer where shelters are concerned) and Craigslist frustration ("Free cat looking for good home!", but the home that doesn't want it is in Tyngsboro. Or Framingham. Or Haverhill. Or...)

I went to the pet store last night and did not buy any kittens. I did buy a single-cat carrier, though. That way I don't have to haul anybody around on foot in the medium-dog-size carrier.

OK, I shut up now. I'm reasonably certain that the drama llama will be here any minute to take me away.

Two things - One, it's likely that the cat in Haverhill has a car, since everyone who lives in the effing burbs has a car. If he wants a new home that badly, he can make the drive =)

Two, if by some chance, he doesn't have a car, I do, and am always happy to aid and abet in the acquisition of new pets.

Second what Siercia says. Let distance not be the impediment between you and the prospective cat. If you are interested, let those of us willing to help know when and where and we'll figure out how to make it happen.

It's not the transportation so much (I can certainly rent a car), but the fact that these listings are on the Cambridge/Boston/Brookline Craigslist. Haverhill is closer to Portsmouth, NH than it is to Boston.
