	Elly's journal~Because having strangers comment on my life makes me feel important I don't write here very often, as most of my journaling goes into a book. Yes, a blank book, with pages. And I even have a pen I write with. Wow! Elly's so low-tech.

So I've gone and adopted possibly the ugliest of the so-called 'big cats' in existance. Her name's Maya, and she's a Jaguarundi. When I first saw her playing with her sister, Aztec, the first words out of my mouth were, "It's half ferret, half cat!" I wasn't far off. Their unofficial nickname is the 'Weazle-cat'. Her head is too small for her body and her tail is about two times larger than any cat's tail should be. I think it's her misproportioned body that gives her the charm and plain adorableness that I fell in love with. Anyway, I don't get to keep her at my house. Aside from laws prohibiting me from owning an 'exotic' animal without a licence, she's also a threatened species. So, basically she's mine in the sense of the word that I pay for her food and boarding, and I can visit with her whenever I want. Other than that, she stays at the feline compound in which I first met her. The good news is that she gets to show herself off to the public (And trust me, she eats up the attention she gets) and the place where she stays is full of well-trained loving people that giver her a whole chicken for dinner every night. Besides, I couldn't have her at my house in the first place. Merlin would eat her whole... That's her (the black one) with her sister Aztec. <33 Elainya · Fri Jan 04, 2008 @ 10:10pm · 3 Comments
