Brat cat

I hate to be all kitteny. I'm not that kind of girl, really. It's just that I adopted this little fleabag last weekend and he's been on my mind (and keyboard) a lot. Typical kitten, dead cute, falling off everything, tearing around like a maniac... BUT the little brat won't snuggle. Well, he will if I'm eating something, but other than that he doesn't even like to sleep in bed with me, he prefers the wooden floor. He uses too much saliva to clean himself so he's always wet and sticky, and he likes to play in his litter box, so sometimes he'll have a stray poop hanging off him. As a mother I'm prepared to overlook all that, but he has to stop holding out on the snuggles. I need a mini straight jacket or something.
