dchenesI didn't jinx it; the Quirk has landed and the cat quest is over. Quirk is currently in the very back of the spelunking closet, which doesn't surprise me at all. Lily didn't understand why she couldn't come visit me in the office the way she usually does in the afternoon, so I took the computer into the living room just in case I have to do any actual work in the next couple of hours. And it's Friday anyway, so I don't have to be glued to the computer tomorrow. I can't be anyway, because I've got errands to do.
Pending receipt of actual vet records, the story I got was Quirk was more or less living under a car in Queens and got her tail run over. A vet in NY amputated the tail and spayed her, and sent her up here, at which point she developed a hernia from the spay and had to have that surgically corrected too. No wonder she doesn't like people very much; I wouldn't either if they kept knocking me out and I kept waking up with more stitches. But everything physical is healed now, at least, and hopefully when she realizes she only has to deal with one cat and one human, she'll relax.
I almost started crying again when I realized that all of Snip's adoption and vaccination records can go in the shred pile this winter. Guess I had better start a Quirk file, though.
