Lost Cat

so my dad found a small cat down the street from our house. the poor thing is so skinny, tired, and probably wondering, "where the hell-o am i at?" me being a sucker for animals, especially cats and dogs, i immediately gave it all my sympathy. not sure whether it was a boy or girl (i didn't peek), i went ahead and started calling it olsen (after mary kate and ashley and their freakishly skinny figures). coincidently, there was an add in the paper for a lost cat: small, black and white. this cat totally fit the description! i mean, how many felines are small and black & white? ok, like a billion of them, but my hopes in returning olsen to its rightful owner/home had skyrocketed to the moon, so i didn't think of the odds. so we call the number listed, and the effin thing isn't even a working phone line! WTF? you place an ad and list a number that's not even in service? come on! we even called the newspaper company to see if they had another way of contacting these people, but they only had the number that was given in the ad. frick. so in the meantime, i give olsen some of our cat's cat food. to my disbelief, olsen is not too fond of the hard stuff. she must have been fed the soft kind, like from a can, because she wouldn't eat one morsel of it, and it's the good stuff too! the only other thing i could think to give it was milk. i grab a cat sized bowl, pour some milk in it (even though it expired the day before), and hoped olsen would chug it down. mmm no. olsen took 5 sips and was over it. i was really starting to think this cat had an eating disorder and that the name i picked was totally appropriate. i was getting frustrated and worried and just wanted the darn thing to eat! we're gonna hold onto him/her for a few more days, and maybe put a "found cat" ad in the paper (with our correct phone number that works, thank you very much!), and see what happens. i'm already getting attached to olsen, and can't help but check on him/her every 5 minutes. *sigh* why must i be such an animal lover?

you're not an olsen if you don't have a paparazzi moment:
