my lil buddy...

i just realized i never talk about the thing that requires my attention everyday, my lil buddy Griffen. himz is my kitty kat. i named him after my tri bike, which i loved so much i named my cat after it. so i have a walking, meowing, reason to get back into triathlons again.

i griff griff was born somewhere around cinco de mayo in 2008 so i just call it himz birthday. he's a ragamuffin kitty which means he really likes people. only problem is unless i trick him into meeting you, he'll hide. that's my fault, for not socializing him sooner. the benefit though is when i take him places he'll just sit in his carrier and look at everyone around him. he never tries to leave, and he lets anybody pet him as long as he doesn't have to leave the carrier.

he was sort of a gift from my ex when we lived together. but honestly i think she got him to be a friend to her cat. he gravitated to me and followed my voice around the house. he didn't with her even though we both fed him and played with him. so when she booked she asked if she could have him. my response "fuck no, he's MY cat" and for the first time in my entire life i realized i loved an animal. i mean really loved him. i had pets growing up but i always treated them like toys i had to feed and clean up after. but griffen was different. lucky for me, because he helped me though some tough times.

you get home and these crystal blue eyes are looking at you like you're the most important person in the world. it makes your day better for sure.
