Want to date my cat?

This one is new to me. I’ve been talking to a guy in email for a week or so. Long enough to share some truly useless minutiae and not much more, you know? He asks about pets so I tell him about my two cats, and how I’m trying to find a new home for one of them. It’s a rough process because I’m not placing this kitty just anywhere and I am not getting the right kind of response for him.

The guy asked to adopt my cat. And he meant it. And what’s more, he seriously seemed to believe I would go for it.

As if. I’m not even sure if I’ll go on a date with him yet, let alone entrust the health and safety of a beloved animal with him. Seriously. He actually seemed disappointed when I politely declined.
