Do *not* give goldfish to children for Halloween! WTF is wrong with you?

Note to self: Don't patronize that fish fancy store. They clearly don't care about the animals if they're just handing out goldfish willy-nilly to small children.

(Mind, if we could've given away Sweetheart to a trick-or-treater, we would've jumped at the chance... but as I told the girls when Jenn said she tried, nobody is ever allowed to take a cat from me without first enduring a long lecture on the Care and Feeding thereof. Section A: Declawing. If they get past the word "declawing" without immediately saying "omg that's horrible I would never do such an awful thing to a poor, innocent animal" then they do not get a cat from me. Section B: Food dyes, and why they don't belong in cat food. Section C: Cats are desert animals. Does yours get enough water? Section D: Declawing, again, and the behavior problems caused by same. If they manage to sit all the way through twenty minutes of me declaiming on the subject of why cats should keep their claws, plus another thirty-odd minutes on everything else, I know they're a keeper.)

My cat won't drink water, but she eats wet food so I guess she's OK.
