フラれちゃった、、

またフラれちゃいました (T_T)
やっぱりとってもステキだったから、無理かな〜、と思っていたけど、、駄目だった。
一からやり直さなくっちゃあ、、。

前回は、一人暮らしだっていうところでひっかかり、今回は単にメール出すのが遅かっただけかもしれないけれど、やっぱり結構一人暮らしがネックになっている気もする、、。


というのはBFのことではありません。;P

前から欲しい欲しいと思っている猫ちゃんのことでした〜 ;D
今回はうまい具合に黒猫ちゃんとキジトラちゃんのきょうだい(女の子と男の子)だったんだけどなぁ。

時々里親募集のページをチェックして、希望している黒猫ちゃんかグレーのキジトラちゃんがいるとメールを出してみるのだけど、結構猫ちゃんを保護していらっしゃる方たちは、里親選びに厳しい。まぁ、その方が良いのだけれど。
でも、やっぱり猫ちゃんが小さいと一人暮らしという条件はあまり歓迎されないようで、いつも大体先約の里親候補がいて、家族暮らしなのだ、、。
「あちらは奥様が昼間いて、夜は旦那様が面倒を見てくれて〜、、」と言われると、何だかとっても自分の立場が弱い気がしてしまう。猫ちゃん的にも遊んでくれる人がいっぱいいた方が幸せなんかな、、と思ったり。。(ふーん)

悩ましいわ、、。

Those cats weren't good enough for you! Once they've been in the hands of that cat woman, who took them to the vet many times even when they were healthy, they surely became hyprochondriacs!

The big question is: How much human attention do cats want/need. In particular, if there are two cats, they can play with each other. The cat lady is assuming that just because Y will leave them alone all the time due to her workaholicism, that the cats will be lonely. Y has to emphasize that she has lots of space for the cats to run about and that the cats will live in a high-class neighborhood and eat premium catfood....

Y should give up on that neurotic cat lady and find a better source of cats! If you asked that cat lady, she'd say most people living alone in Tokyo are all kawaiso and would be happier living cheek-by-jowl with all members of their extended families; is this really true? She's projecting her own values onto cats. There must be other places to get cats (probably most of them aren't posting the cat info on the internet), if you know of nonneurotic people distributing cats in Tokyo, please post some comment information on it.

Actually, the owner of the cats I emailed to is totally nice. The one before mentioned that the other couple might be a better candidate and I also sometimes encounter similar comments in those cats' sato-oya sites.
So, don't attack her! :P
I'm not sure how much attention cats need. Probably not much. Although, when they are little they probably need more attention.

I think I can find a perfect cat for me sometime. It just takes time. Just like finding a perfect BF ;-?

I think the cat distributors' search for the perfect cat household is a Japanese human perfectionistic thing more than a cat thing... They're thinking just about cats and not people! (If you're alone and want a cat for companionship, then you're not good enough for a cat! And at the same time everyone want to make sure the cats are "indoor cats" so they can't go out and play with other cats in the neighborhood...) Japanese motorcycle fanatics are sometimes similar. Many years ago, I wanted to customize my Yamaha SR motorcycle, so I went to a shop that did various customizing (in particular I wanted to bore out the engine to make it 500cc although it would look like 400cc on the outside for shaken etc.).... and the guy said "well, you'll have to replace your chain, your tires, your x, your y.... it will cost 400,000 yen. And I said..."that's a bit expensive (twice the original cost of the bike), can't you just do the engine work and I'll replace everything later?" and he said "Nope! I only work on perfect motorcycles! Not mediocre bikes like yours!" So I gave up on my idea, thinking, if I already had a perfect bike, why would I want to modify it.... and I'd be afraid to let it outside where it could be damaged/stolen, so it would be like a "house cat".....
