“Hello?”
“Do you have kittehs?”
“I do..”
“Could I like, have one?”
“Well, that’s not how I operate.”
“HUH? You a doctor?”
“No, I just rescue cats”
“But you like just said you operate?”
“That’s not what I meant. I meant that I don’t just adopt out kittens on the spot. What exactly are you looking for?”
“Huh? I like want a kitten! I like want a kitten NOW!!!”
“As I just said, that is not how I do things”
“How do you like do things (heavy sarcasm in this teenager’s voice)
“I have an application form you need to fill out. I will review it. If it passes, I will bring the kitten to your home. If the home and you pass inspection, I will ask you or your mom or dad to sign a contract-and I will leave the kitten with you. If not, kitty comes back home with me.”
“Like ALL I want is a kitteh- I can’t have a kittenh?”
“My kittens aren’t old enough to go to homes yet. They need to be neutered first.”
“HUH?”
At this point I hung up the phone and just shook my head and laughed. It is doubtful she would know how to read a contract let alone sign one. She hasn’t called back.
