So… the cat distribution system seems to have gotten a bit confused. After losing Livvy, I planned to adopt a pair of 2 or 3 year old cats, whoever kind of reached out to me.

About a month ago l visited Muttville Senior Dog rescue, just to pet dogs with a couple friends.

Big room, lots of people, lots of couches, lots of old dogs.

This scruffy little guy starts howling at me, and I sit with him. He buries his head in my side, for 45 minutes. Who am I to say he’s wrong?

So, instead of two young cats, I have a 12 year old tiny dog named Bob.

If you are looking to spend time with animals, even if you aren’t in a place to adopt, I cannot recommend Muttville in SF or Cat Town in Oakland enough.

The staff and volunteers are very kind and helpful and you are helping the animals with a bit of socialization while you get your snuggles in.

@Turtlecatpurrz Oh, what a lovable goofball!

And yes, what a nice idea for the shelter to make a public service out of their socialization program.

@AmeliasBrain It’s win win. People who are looking to adopt can meet them, people who just need a cuddle can help them, and get their needs met, and the animals rent in tiny kennels. Those that get along with others can socialize with their species too.
