    Our neighbor just adopted a couple of kittens. We are thinking of giving her our well made cat trees that have been vacant for a few years. I’m just not emotionally ready to get pets again, maybe never, but I didn’t want to let go and pandemic… But I also think those little fvckers will probably never sit in them😻 Maybe I’ll just give her the smol Amazon boxes.
