i'll only blame my cat when it is her fault! she does injure me, far too often really, but she's getting old so it's moer my fault than her's. but i love my baby. :bcatsmile:

As fun as this thread is...I think that we could really use SHACA to promote SI awareness....Like if we could come up with T-shirts....honestly....have a art contest on BUS to come up with some cool shirt ideas, sell them and use the proceeds to further NSIAD and other pro-informative SI projects....what do you all think??
Yup good idea. Would also make people realise SI can have fun too...
Perhaps one day this too will be pleasant to remember

I know this is now two years on, but I wonder if anyone did make T-shirts?

Wow I'd almost forgotten about SHACA! Though I've not blamed my cat since joining, and she's now gone to kitty heaven, so can't be blamed again, alas!

We should resurrect the T-shirt idea...

Haha, I've been wondering about SHACA for a long time now. I'm glad to see that people still care about it and remeber and all that stuff. I think I used to be a member aeons ago. But I agree that something should be done about the shirts, I'm just not sure what.
love me...

I must protest I dont think its fair to shift the blame from cats to rabbits, rabbits are soooooooo cute, and way more innocent than cats!

I agree Katja, I don't think we should blame any animals really. Just a barbed wire fence or something. :tongue:

Haha, this sounds great. "Aye."

I don't have a cat to blame, but even so. I won't blame even imaginary cats.

I just got a kitten today. I was at the SPCS and I had some cuts on my arm and someone noticed and said I shouldn't get the cat that did that. I admit - I have used the cat scratched me line before, but will not any longer, I love Vinny too much!

Vinny is such a cute name Leeanna! You should post some pics of him on Main, we'd love to see what he looks like?

I really should have become a member a long time ago. When I think of all the times my kitty has helped me, cheered me up, gotten me through the day, it is unfair to blame him for my own actions. :tongue:
