Free kitten - Inland Empire (1 of 3 such locations in the US, this one in California)

[nad]

Gone to a new home, thanks y'all.

Not sure where else to put this, and I don't mean on TB, I mean on the internet, because I've never done something like this before. So I don't know if this kind of thing is even okay to do, apologies if not.

Long story short: landlord disagrees with our recently discovered cat-getting ways, so she has to go to a new home. I'm not even much of a cat person but I honestly want to keep her. Oh well.



She's neat. Full of energy but totally mellows out when you give her a little body warmth. Well potty-trained (aren't all cats?), probably 3 months old at best. As far as I know she has not gotten her shots yet, but she's very people friendly so unlikely to have been an alley cat.

PM if you need a phone number, I'm located in Loma Linda, CA. Anyhow, anyone who wants her I can deliver locally or you can come pick her up. She'll be off to the local shelter sometime tomorrow if nobody claims her, and while I know she'll be scooped up rather quickly (cute, nice, etc.), I'd rather actually hand her directly to her new owner, if possible.

Cheers and such, once again my apologies if this is deemed inappropriate. I do know there are a lot of cat lovers here at least, not like I'm trying to pawn off old car parts or a busted washing machine.

EDIT: Clarified for the reading impaired. Also, knowledge!

I would totally take her if I could. However, my one cat is a handful and my roommate isnt too fond of her. My mom recelty tried to get me to take another little kitty but we had to decline.


*Oh, and I first I thought this thread was about the band, Free Kitten (Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth's side project) playing somewhere nearby.

2009 model, huh? Where was it made? Original hardshell case included?

Quite frankly vintage cats have much better tone but I like the finish on this one. Nice ears too, it's a nice change of pace from all the Maine Coon ripoffs on the market.

I wonder hoa many "Inland Empires" there are in the US?

I'll bet at least a dozen. I used to live in the "Inland Empire" south of Spokane in eastern Washington.

I have not the foggiest idea where the OP lives.

Just for that I'll have to check them out!

Good call, I'll include a cheap SKB knockoff catbox along with said cat.

How funny, I specifically didn't put Riverside because there are a million of those, I figured we in the valley of the dirt were the lone keepers of the bold title Inland Empire, Southern California, but now I have learned that there are at least 3 in the US. Thanks for the help in my unending quest for knowledge!

Bump for kitty who needs a good home.

[nad]

Thanks Eric. How've you been? I never see you in FX land anymore.

We have two possibles tomorrow, and if neither comes through... well we talked to our landlord and she can stay with us if need be. Darn.

[Pilgrim]

Oops.

Literacy, where is thy sting?

I finally came to a point of fx satisfaction, and the music I'm playing (blues) is not calling for much in the way of fx - although I'm on the verge of buying a VT Bass. I lurk or search the FX room on occasion, but haven't had much advice to give that hasn't already been given. It's simply a matter of shifting GAS.

Good luck with your kitty, nad!!

Yup, Spokane is (was?) the "gateway" and commercial center of the Inland Empire; the region of farmland southeast of here. I do love the Palouse. Some of you may recognize as all the outdoor shots of the Robin Williams movie Toys was filmed on the Palouse.

So we have SE Washington and Southern Cali. Where is the third?

Cute Kitty. Have you tried Craigslist. You can't sell animals in the pet section but you can charge a re-homing fee to weed out the riffraff.

Sweet. It's funny how much cheaper pedal GAS is than amp and especially bass wanderings. I don't think my woman considers Pedal Addiction "cheap" though, since they fly in through the out door on quite the regular basis. She often thinks I have gear commitment issues, but at such times I always point out my P-bass which has been with me for almost 13 years now!

In Georgia apparently!

Craig's List advertisement in full effect y'all. If nobody gives her a home today we will have considered the message from the kitten gods clear and she'll be staying with us.

To be fair, I'm a bit longwinded when it comes to the written/typed word (longfingered?). Generally speaking I don't read my entire posts either.

Inland Empire: A cool-sounding name the locals use to make themselves feel better about the fact that they can't afford to live at the beach!
