My ex bought me a cat from the pet shop once and I don't think it had much human contact before...it wasn't very friendly.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573262524755768643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246558210261863420.post-43550230447453730402009-12-08T17:55:14.747-06:002009-12-08T17:55:14.747-06:00Good for you for not paying the fine.

My current kitty, Miss Cindi Lou Who, is the sweetest little girl. Rescue pets have so much love to give.SquirrelQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00634513897599275287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246558210261863420.post-87388353277736808152009-12-08T04:24:23.938-06:002009-12-08T04:24:23.938-06:00Sorry to hear what your daughter did, but I guess ...Sorry to hear what your daughter did, but I guess we all make misstakes like this one earlier or later on in life.<br />I'm kind of worried about my daughter (little sister) already, that's why I wish she will continue keeping herself busy with gymnastics.<br />I was very active doing sports growing up, except some of my early teen years. And these years I just kept busy doing wrong things.<br />Maybe your daughter would like to continue helping out at an animal shelter, also after her community service?!the momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17829318963828617854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246558210261863420.post-87972113189378561442009-12-07T19:24:05.219-06:002009-12-07T19:24:05.219-06:00@Blissseeker and gayle: I don't think we do o...@Blissseeker and gayle: I don't think we do our kids any favors by bailing them out of trouble. They need to face the consequences of their actions.<br /><br />@kenju and Vince: Kudos for adopting. My favorite pets have all come from shelters.<br /><br />@Sage: I love that idea. I may use it if I ever throw myself another birthday party.<br /><br />@Kate: No, it doesn't get easier. She's really a good kid, just does stupid stuff every once in a while. She's also on the honor roll this semester...<br /><br />I'm sorry to hear about your cat. Hopefully you'll be chosen by 2 wondeful kittens who will have you laughing at their antics. Pick the one that walks up to you and says, "Take me home!"Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573262524755768643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246558210261863420.post-37915764299413004382009-12-07T10:02:16.400-06:002009-12-07T10:02:16.400-06:00Kids!!

He's smart and loyal and just wonderful (except for Thunderstorms).<br /><br />My daughter, for a birthday party when she was ten, had the guest bring something for a local dog shelter that handles abused dogs, then she got to go drop off the toys and treats. It became a bit of a trend, because then one of her friends also had such a party. The last thing these girls need is more junk.<br /><br />Sorry about your daughter shoplifting, but hopefully she's learning several lessons.<br /><br />As for the FTC ruling you said that you hoped I was kidding on, the link in my post was to a "Wired" article about it. Having blogged about 3 books that I was given (when I've probably written a 100 reviews over 5 years) isn't worrying me too much.Sagehttp://www.sagecoveredhills.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246558210261863420.post-16467637287477957432009-12-07T02:37:43.342-06:002009-12-07T02:37:43.342-06:00I found my dog Jess at a rescue place.
