As many may know Lindsey and I are now living alone in the vast apartment of OA 104. It can get lonely at times. And there are days when Lindsey and I are bored out of our minds for hours on end. Because of this people should not be surprised to find us in the apartment throwing marshmallows at each other while hanging upside down off the side of the couch or reenacting musicals in our living room. But tonight we found a new hobby called OCTAVIUS!!
After a fun-filled day Lindsey and I were sitting quietly, each on our separate couches, playing on our computers when were heard a small, rather distressed noise coming from outside of our door. Lindz and I looked at each other while I anxiously asked, "What is that?" Lindsey chose not to respond to me with words, but rather by mimicking the noise to which we heard yet another call from outside our door. At the same moment we each looked at each other, yelled, CAT!! and ran to the door. Upon opening the door we discovered the cutest little black and white Tabby cat ever! Both of us fell to our knees just inside our door to try to persuade little Tabby to come over and play with us. Lindz was more successful than I was and got the cat to come up to our door mat and lay down like a little puppy to pet its stomach.
As we were petting our little friend we decided that he looked hungry so we brought him inside to feed him some milk.
The cat loved the milk and soon began wandering around our apartment. We didn't know what to do with him but we knew we couldn't just turn him out into the cold dark night again so Lindsey grabbed some paper and started making LOST posters while I continued to play with the cat. It was difficult to always call him "cat" so I decided to name him Octavius. Lindsey liked the name Skipper (hello, I'm a teenage Barbie right?) But I soon persuaded her that Octavius was the name our little cat deserved. It's strong and powerful and reminds me of a Roman God so from that point forward little Tabby was known as Octavius. This story is not very exciting because Lindz and I just played with Octavius for like two hours. We found some streamers because that is seriously the closest thing we had to string which little Tavius loved and then we tried to make him wear crowns and feather boas, the pictures of which you can see below.
Anyway, after hours of fun we decided that Octavius' real parents were probably missing him. So after giving Tavius lots of hugs Lindsey took him outside and dropped him off to scamper home. And now were are all alone once again . . .
