It looked like it was well-taken care of, so we suspected it already belonged to someone else. Also, we can't be sure about the proper procedures for adopting a cat in the middle of the night (especially if we suspect it may already belong to someone else).
Possession is nine tenths and all that.
Cops tend to disagree and that disagreement CAN lead to a siege situation, but stick to your guns...
...or at least point them in the right direction!

Stick to my guns... the purple plastic dart guns that can't actually fire for shit...
Anyway, the cat's gone now. It moved on to another house.

Watching one of the Shovel Knight developers working on some new pixel art on Twitch. I am impressed.

Band executive meeting this evening, getting ready for the new season.
When I got home I made spaghetti with mizithra cheese and browned butter. I over-browned the butter on the first try (my daughter has a trick whereby she puts the sauce pot in cold water to cool it down so that the butter stops cooking), and had to do a do-over.
Decided to make an experimental shortbread with the original butter, after straining it: 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup corn starch, 1/2 cup icing sugar, 2 teaspoons instant espresso powder, the browned butter, and a couple of tablespoons of water to get a dough that sticks together. Press into a 9x9 pan, bake for 25 minutes at 300F, cut into squares and let cool.

Just left the vet after seeing my cat.
Don’t know who was more upset, him or me!
Nurse tried to tell me how to use his feeding tube. Didn’t have the heart to mention I’m a surgeon.
“Have you ever worn latex gloves before?”
“A few times, yeah.”
