Now isn’t that adorable?  And it takes a lot of effort on the part of the owner, too!  For all her furious pedaling, she was pretty much going at the exact speed that we were walking, which is why this photo is so in focus (unlike some of my other “masterpieces”).  Now, let’s see him a little bigger:

Awwwwwwwww!

The SF SPCA will honor the following deals through Labor Day:

• Adult cats (over 6 months): FREE every day!
• Kittens (under 6 months): FREE on Saturdays! Just $100 other days. 2-for-1 limited time offer!
• Small Dog, Big Heart special (dogs under 20 pounds and over 6 months): $50

Details here.

The SPCA announced via Facebook that it is waiving the adoption fee for all kittens under six months until June 30th! If you’ve always wanted to adopt a kitten, but balked at the adoption fees, this is your chance to partake in the joy that is cat ownership. To get you pumped up, here’s a clip of the band Free Kitten at the MTV Beach House in 1994. Kittens!!!

At Saturday’s Believer/Tumblr event at the Makeout Room, there were more than a couple of stories about encountering crazy people on the streets of SF. Turtle-enthusiast/multiple-dog-owner Mills Baker read this entertaining piece about an aspiring religious musical songwriter and future mother of quintuplets:

Now that I think about it, everyone I know who lives in or has visited the city has a favorite crazy person story. I guess that’s one good thing that came from the Reagan administration.

My mom texted me this photo that she took from her flip-phone camera while on her way to school (that’s JPL in the hazy background), demonstrating that the only thing needed to take your cat on a bike ride with you is a bit of training (and probably a thick scarf to give him something to plunge his claws into other than your neck).

Not bad considering the modest technology at her disposal!  Don’t worry, I got her an iPhone the next day to ensure that her next find is a high-resolution masterpiece.
