I am getting myself a kitten or two tomorrow. I kindof wanted to call it Moses, though I don't really know why.
You must post pictures!

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

It is not a scary deformed kitten really! Shim didn't want to use the flash 'cause it would scare them...

[absinthe-shadow.livejournal.com]

Squeeeeeeeeeeeee! SO CUTE SO CUTE OMG.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

OMG. OMG OMG OMG.

[a-t-rain.livejournal.com]

Eee, what adorable kittens! Stripey kitties are the best.

And wow, there are really a lot of awesome people named Harriet. I hadn't realized that.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

(We totally did not edit the Wikipedia entry on famous Harriets for our own purposes, totally not.)

[thunderemerald.livejournal.com]

OMG SO CUTE.

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

I KNOW OMG.

[hathy-col.livejournal.com]

Oh, god, I'm coming to see the kitten at some point soon. KITTEN!

(Still say it should be called LOL.)

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

This idea was being considered far too seriously for quite some time, naming no names of course.

[tau_sigma]

KITTEN. Omg so cute. You got one! (In reference to your comment on my photo ... I mean, it's practically the same, ys?)

There are two. There are two kittens, why are there two, are they both to be called Harriet?

My ticky box was not so much 'will tell you another Harriet' as 'I am an ignoramus and have heard of one and a half of these.' Being MP for Flydale North, clearly, and Harriet the spy, maybe.

Omg KITTEN. *pets her*

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

OMG CAN HAS KITTY. There are two because we went to see the litter - we don't get to take one home for three weeks yet. There were four of them and they were SO CUTE OMG.

[apestaartje.livejournal.com]

My name was almost going to be Harriet. A popular cat name here is Minoe.

All I have to say is this:

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

You should've seen us, really. Someone had asked only ten minutes earlier, when we couldn't find the house, how many degrees we had between us (answer: five) - but we just turned into total gibbering goo. It was amazing.

[pinkdormouse.livejournal.com]

So cute!!

Awww! There is also Harriet Johnson in White Boots. Does she feel like a champion grim? Harriet Vane is my favourite Harriet...

Re: here via

[chiasmata]

YES. How could I have forgotten Harriet Johnson?

[sunlightdances.livejournal.com]

OH MY GOD KITTEN.
KITTEN KITTEN KITTEN.

[slasheuse.livejournal.com]

KITTEN

I will come and STEAL HER and NOM ON HER FEET

NOM

[absinthe-shadow.livejournal.com]

This. Just, YES. I WILL JOIN THE NOM.

[slasheuse.livejournal.com]

WE WILL KIDNAP HER AND SEND NOTES SAYING "MOO HA HA nomnomnom" with a background of kitten-nomming.

[absinthe-shadow.livejournal.com]

NOMMMMMMMMMMMM. WE WILL GET CAUGHT BY LEWIS, OKAY?

[slasheuse.livejournal.com]

LEWIS. Oh oh oh, when we're all back in the only good place in the world, we must watch Life Born Of Fire. You will die of the exquisite agony.

BISEXUAL KNITTING!

[absinthe-shadow.livejournal.com]

I HAVE NEVER ACTUALLY WATCHED LEWIS. This MUST be rectified A.S.A.P.

[slasheuse.livejournal.com]

OMG. Okay you will love it LIKE AIR AND LIFE. itv.com usually has a couple of eps up, but am going to buy the box set soon eeee.

[slasheuse.livejournal.com]

ALSO YOU WHORE I HAVE MISSED YOU SO MUCH, WHERE HAVE YOU EVEN BEEN. MISSED YOU.

[absinthe-shadow.livejournal.com]

*GLOMPS* I was IN THE NORTH and simultaneously IN BED and thus didn't get to do ANYTHING FUN like visit Lizzie or Iona. BUT, I pretended to be Katherine Mansfield and other awesome people. THERE WAS NO INTERNET.

When are you going back to Oxford? Haven't seen you for YEARS AND YEARS which is JUST WRONG. Nobody tortures me with WimFic the way you do. OH THE PAIN.

[slasheuse.livejournal.com]

OH OH if you go back a bit in my journal I wrote a LIST OF FICS THE INTERNET SHOULD WRITE ME. YOU SHOULD LIKE THEM. GO BACK A BIT. CHLOE I MISS YOOOOOOOOOOU. Are you now so clever for words? Oh Chloe, I cannot bear it, I will be Postgraduate Student but nobody will call me Awesome.

[absinthe-shadow.livejournal.com]

I MISS YOU AND AND AND EVERYONE, MADLY.

Being a PS = automatically being Awesome, unless one is Horrible and Evil (other category of PS - binary system operating here), and you are CERTAINLY not that. Your awesomeness is UNQUESTIONABLE. You rank alongside She Who Is Amazingly Cool now!

[divulge.livejournal.com]

So cute!

[gipsy-dreamer.livejournal.com]

I got sent here by shimgray and just wanted to tell you that your kitty is adorable :D

[sebastienne.livejournal.com]

My mother and father are made of sensible. You probably already know this, but Harriet will need to be:

- speyed
- vaccinated
- wormed

Are you guys on top of this?

(Sorry, I mean, of course, "ooh, it's a kitty!" Silver tabby? ^_^ )

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

Her current owners are doing the latter two, and we are currently debating the first.

[sebastienne.livejournal.com]

Thanks for putting my mind at rest.

My parents say that if we don't spey, we will have kittens next spring. I don't pretend to know anything about this debate, really, so I will just sit back and go "oooh, kitty!!" and wait desperately for Wednesday evening...

[jacinthsong.livejournal.com]

I can't believe I have not yet used this icon re: KITTEN.

(also, if you are reading this, turn Freedom back on or I will nom your feet off)

[jacinthsong.livejournal.com]

And now.

[clubhopper15.livejournal.com]

She's so cute! Definitely a Harriet, though I'm not sure which Harriet.
