Cauuuuuuute!!!
So today instead of working on my homework I accompanied The Roomies to PetSmart the other day on a search for a pump for our broken water bowl.
And oh what we found was an abundance of cuteness. I am and forever will be a cat person. Unless, I marry someone who wants a dog in that case I will only allow a border collie, an Australian Shepherd or a corgi because they are sooooooooooooo cute. >.< I might settle for a corgi Shepherd mix but only if it looks like this. Ok so they all pretty much look the same. But what can I can I say? 
I like what I like. Anyway so I went straight to the adoption center because I love seeing the cats. And I almost died from all the adorableness in the room. This calico pictured on the left was up for adoption. How freaking cute?!!! I wanted to take her home so bad. I also felt like she is looked like the offspring of my roommates’ cats Tomo and Missy. (if they weren’t spayed or neutered) I should have listened to my sister when she said I would want to take a kitty home with me. And now its too late and I’ve laid eyes on this adorable cat. I never really thought about calico cats until I moved in with Mija and Jody. Did you know that calico cats are a female only breed? I didn’t either. But yeah I read it somewhere and its true as far as I know. So along with the cats, I also saw the birds, fish, rodents and reptiles. And one in particular caught my attention. 
This lizard, forgot the name of it, was so freaking hyper. And he had so much personality for such a small thing. I mean he kept looking at my cell when I tried to snap pictures of him. So freaking weird but adorable at the same time. I’m not really a reptile person but he was an interesting specimen. And so tiny. If for some reason I wanted a lizard for a pet I would get this little guy. Of course I would be worried to get a pet as small as a lizard, mouse, or hamster. I would be afraid of it getting out and getting lost or getting eaten by Missy or sucked up by the vacuum. So many dangers for small pets that’s is why I’ve only ever had fish and fat cats. Other than that nothing. We looked around for a bit and I continued to walk by the cats again and again until the area started to make me light headed due to full litter boxes. That was enough to stop me from walking in that direction. So my roomies and 
I started to look at the cat trees. We’ve been wanting to get something for Missy to scratch and lay on. She has been doing a number on our stairs. The little devil, she is too old to declaw so we’ve ruled out that option. Tomo was declawed when he was younger so he doesn’t need a scratching post. But we would still want a tree that is strong enough to hold his fat ass. Those things aren’t exactly well made if you buy the cheaper one. So Jody thinks he can build one, with help from my dad. We just need to get some carpet pieces and rope to cover it. I’m excited, I hope they can make it soon rather than later. So that was the adventure at PetSmart. We ended up leaving empty handed. On to daily outfit. I keep forgetting to take pictures every day so I only have what I wore on Thursday. The entire week I used the Star Wars bag I made. And because its such a busy print I have to wear grays, blues, and browns. So the entire week I wore outfits that matched well with my bag and my boots of course. I had way more combinations than I thought I did. So yay!! Ok well I screwed up my sleeping pattern once again…-.- damn.
But let me end by asking, are you a dog person or a cat person? And would you consider switching sides for your significant other?

Thanks for your comment and for following my blog – favour returned! 🙂
With regards to your question, I think I’m on the fence here – I used to be really into cats but recently, there’s something about dogs that just really appeals to me, especially pretty ones. Hehe, that lizard sure is cute – I thought Rango as soon as I saw that photo!

@Yishi, Thanks for the returned follow. 😀
I’m still very much a cat person, but if I lived in a house I would actually want a dog. And then going to the park alone wouldn’t be so bad because then I would have a dog to play with. lol

I’m definately a dog person but don’t dislike cats. My parents don’t like cats and now I have a husband who doesn’t like them. Still, I would be willing to get one if he wanted to…I don’t think it’s fair to deprive a partner of that experience, especially if they never had the chance to own the animal of their choice while growing up. Adulthood is supposed to be our chance to break some of our parents’ rules.

Yeah its not that I disliked dogs as a child. My parents just didn’t want to get a dog, it took them forever to even let us get a cat and now they have two. Cats are just easier to take care of, dogs need a lot more attention. But I would definitely not deprived my significant other from having a dog. And I can’t wait to make the rules. 😀 lol
Thanks for reading and commenting.

We had an iguana before, and I’d say reptiles are a little weird sometimes. I’d like to have cats and dogs of my own( we actually have one pug/chihuahua at home) but I don’t think I’m responsible enough to have one for my own, because I don’t know how to take good care of them 🙁
Thanks for visiting my blog btw, I’m now following you too.
Best,

@Stephipay- You get used to taking care of a pet. I’m sure you could do it on your own. 😀
And thanks for following, reading and commenting. :3

I have two cats, and I love them so much. Seriously, I don’t have kids because I am worried they will take time away from my cats. However, I grew up with a dog, so naturally I love dogs too! Who am I kidding? I am a sucker for anything fluffy.

I definitely like fluffy animals too!! And I treat my cats like babies as well. But the cats I live with, are more like my niece and nephew. XD And having kids might distract you from your cats but that will only be for a couple of years. Once they grow up then every one can have time to love the pets. 😀

[…] Friday night my dude, Kimmy and I went on a mini adventure to Petsmart – we saw the most lovely kitty ever! She was a fluffy calico! Now I am not sure if you guys remember our cats but I have a fluffy cat named Tomo and my fiancé has a little old lady calico named Missy. If they would have mated they would have created this big pawed beauty! Kim posted more about her over here. […]
