Vacation's over.

I was able to hang out with about a fifth of my friends list, along with a number of other people. The rest of my time was spent with my new cat.

He's a wonderful little creature. Unfortunately, he still isn't fixed. We have an appointment to bring him in tomorrow to get that done. I feel bad for the little guy because we've had to keep him penned up for the majority of the time due to spraying. We've allowed him to explore the place a little and become acclimated with the other cats, but we can't keep him from attempting to "mark it" as his territory. And cat piss fucking stinks. So, as they say, off with the balls!"

Ramone is fearless. The other cats hiss and paw at him, trying to assert dominance, but he refuses to take it. He will stare them down and then lash out to let them know he's no pushover.

Maus tried to attack, but all it took was a couple quick pats on the head with Ramone's paw and Mausey screamed like a bitch. Pyewacket didn't fare much better. Zoe will just sit there and hiss at Ramone, but Ramone stares her down, creeps really close and locks eyes with her as if to say, "Yeah, whattayagonnadoaboutit?" The best moment, however, was when Ramone sneaked up behind Kissyfur on the bed. Kissyfur is kind of the "patriarch" of the clan. He is the "alpha male." But Ramone walked right up to him, climbed on his back and grabbed him by the nape of the neck, holding him down so he couldn't move. Kissy is about twice the size of Ramone, possibly more, but he was totally trapped by Ramone and couldn't get away. This is my kind of cat.

During the day we have him confined to a large, makeshift pen in the living room so the other cats can become more accustomed to him. At night we set him up in the downstairs bathroom because he will sometimes start yowling at his loss of freedom and it keeps us awake. I've spent a few nights curled up on the bathroom floor to keep him company.

Once the cats calm the fuck down and learn to accept him, Ramone's going to make a great addition to our family. I've really become fond of the little fella and adore his personality. He's cool.

Like I said, he's my kind of cat.
