Earlier I went down for dinner and after my siblings left my parents started listing off names, asking me which ones I liked. Then Mom finally said "Oh, we're thinking about getting a cat."
Note: In my family, we plan things ahead of time. By a lot. Like, if we buy a cake mix, we do not bake a cake until "Oh, next week I'll do that!" If we have friends over YOU MUST INFORM EVERYONE AT LEAST A WEEK OR TWO AHEAD OF TIME. SERIOUSLY, it's weird-ish. We ALWAYS plan ahead, which is why when things are sprung up on me I spazz a little... That was kinda like this situation and why I didn't believe her until WE STARTED DRIVING TO THE HOUSE.The house... it was horrible. It was in a bad end of town, for starters, and it just... It wasn't good. It smelled horrible and the woman was painting the walls with SIXTEEN KITTENS RUNNING AROUND. dfkjasdfjklsdfl noooooooo. :(
Upon walking in I spotted a black kitten who was just... chilling in front of a cat carrier. And while the owner was showing Mom the other cats, this one let me pet her and played with me a little! So when the question came along: "Which one do you want," WE SHOULD ALL KNOW WHICH ONE I PICKED.
The owner fetched a box and placed her in it, telling us about the kitten, who was scrambling to get out. She about near popped the lid open! THEN THIS HAPPENED:
Owner: Oh! Looks like Pandora's trying to get out of the box!
Me: ...what lolol?
Owner: That's her name, Pandora. See, she has a sister who looks just like her, so we named her to make it easier to refer to her, BUT YOU CAN CHANGE HER NAME IF YOU--
Me: N-No. That name is perfect...
...sob, poor thing. As if that name wasn't bad enough (lolol ♫), she was COVERED with fleas (but she was pretty chill and laidback while we brushed her akjladfjkl awww) and had a spot of paint on the end of her whiskers! I even hardcore-cleaned my room for her... I've never had a pet before, omg she is sleeping behind me in her box.
SO YES. PANDORA'S BOX IS BEHIND ME. AND SHE IS SLEEPING IN IT. ♥
