Well if this ain't the cutest darn thing ... even the Kitteh likes her!

I have a bit of an odd affinity for Leo Sayer, I gotta say ...

Dude was a very good songwriter, had vocal talent, and was all around just a crack-up ...

And I honestly love this performance ... probably thought 3 Dog Night wrote this song, eh?

Or maybe you thought Roger Daltrey wrote this one?

So ... my dear Auntie didn't make it, and now it's time to divide up her 6 kittehs ...

I'm thinking of taking on 8 y.o. Jean Luc (my aunt was a huge Francophile and went there pretty much yearly in her retirement ... hence the cat name!).

He's a purebred Burmese ... and I lost my Siamese Snowshoe boy at 17.5 yo January 2021 ... I know this is limited evidence, but ... do you think I oughta have my cousin bring him over to stay with ol' Mr L?

hella precious (partywithray remix)-back to you(zey)(studio-2020) gender non-binary friendly track

And I'm not just posting this cause 'hella precious' is the nom de guerre of my first-cousin-once-removed so stop saying that!

It's really pretty good
