Here is a request for cat food, can be mailed to the house.

The woman is trying to care for a colony cat situation.

Frankly, she could probably use help trapping some to be neutered, but unless you know for a fact that you can line somebody up to do that (in Babylon on Long Island, NY), there's no use mentioning it. I'm sure she already knows.

She only wants cat food, so, as Ginmar pointed out, it's probably safe. That stuff doesn't have much of a value on the black market.

I was going to post this on the New Yorkers comm, but then I realized half those people suck. The other half are awesome, but I'm feeling like the odds are I'd get the sucky half replying, and since the update says you can mail food in it seems no longer necessary to post just on a regional community.

Ana, last night, accused me of being nicer to Callie than I am to her.

This would be a very serious accusation, but I managed to get specifics from her today. Apparently, I'm nicer to Callie because I a. snuggle Callie all the time and b. give Callie everything she likes.

It's not that this reasoning is entirely false, but for comparison purposes, let's make a list. Maybe you can see the problem with it:

What Callie likes:

Playing fetch with her little foil cat toy
Catching mice
Her brother
Cat food
Sneaking food (and dead mice) out of the garbage
Yowling at the top of her lungs
Playing pounce-on-the-feet
Napping
Climbing on stuff and then jumping off
Being snuggled

What Ana likes:

Playing on the ipad
Reading
Her sister
Icies and potato chips
Hiding out so she doesn't have to do her homework (or clear the table)
Playing punch-buggy
Showing off how strong she is
Climbing on stuff and then jumping off
Never being snuggled ever again.

Seriously, she's been known to punch people. And by people I mean me. When I pointed this out, that she NEVER accepts a snuggle or a hug when I offer one, she said that, nevertheless, I snuggle Callie more than I snuggle her. I went to snuggle her. She kicked me.

Yeah, I'm not trying that again!
