Edited to add, 7/27: Mooch was adopted yesterday, by some really great people. It was pretty much love at first sight for them (or at least love at first hold), and hopefully we’ll hear from them! Gilbert got a lot of love and interest, but didn’t get adopted. Maybe today will be his day!

Mooch sure hopes his people come along at the cat show today, because holding this smile is starting to make his face hurt.

Locals, don’t forget: the TICA Cat Show is taking place this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, 10 am to 4 pm! There’ll be cool vendors there (note to self: get cash, because YOU HAVE A CAT TOY ADDICTION), lots of cool cats, and the Cheez Doodles will be there, available for adoption, or even just for cuddles and kisses! Come by and say hi!

Admission proceeds benefit Challenger’s House – the more people who attend, the more money Challenger’s House will get! Admission is $5 per adult, $4 for seniors and uniformed military, $3 for children, and children under 3 are free.

Yesterday I took Mooch, Marshall, and Gilbert to WAAY, to be on the 4:00 news. Gilbert and Mooch could NOT have been more laid-back (Gilbert flirted with every person who walked by; he was a serious little charmer), but Marshall was a little tense. He relaxed the longer we were there, but he just did NOT know what was going on.
I’m sure he’ll be thrilled when I put him in a carrier again today!
Gilbert, charming the ladies.
Marshall, with Walt Hennessee from the North Alabama Spay Neuter Clinic. Marshall’s all “And she put this HARNESS thing on me, and then she threw me in a CARRIER, and I was in there FOREVERRRRR…”
Gilbert investigates.
Kami and Mooch.
Marshall, looking for escape routes.
And here’s the clip from the news. You’ll see that when the reporter asked me just about ANYTHING, my mind went completely blank. I am SO SO SO grateful that Kami was there!

If anyone gets adopted today, I’ll try to post something at the Love & Hisses Facebook page, and when I get home I’ll mark their picture(s) in the sidebar with “ADOPTED!” Depending on the service I get on my phone at the cat show, I may post at the Love & Hisses page during the day, if I get a chance.
You can also keep an eye on the Challenger’s House Facebook page.
Wish the boys luck! I’d love it if all of them were adopted this weekend. Wouldn’t that be awesome?
