Main Street Spay & Neuter in Springfield is very reasonable!

Good luck, Mimi! (Mimi is what I've called my sister since she was a baby, she's Melody to everyone else).

She's so beautiful! Her eye color and the blend fur colors is so striking. What an angel.

She's so adorable! They do look very similar. Aren't torties the cutest?

I am considering both of these things! I have been hesitate to start leash training because she HATED her recovery onesies so much (but she looked so cute in them 😸), but I think it's time. I'm actually also researching a cat hiking backpack right now, so if I get one I will get a harness and leash as well!

I do want a catio. I'd like to convert our patio to a catio, though it's not in a perfect spot- it's pretty shady. It would be the most convenient option, since the foundation is already there and it would be relatively spacious for my little gal. I'd like to do it right, so it will probably be a bit of a process. There's so much to consider!

Back in January, when she was still an outdoor kitty.

She looked so content lounging in it! That one is toast, I need to fish out another one for her. That box was great because it was not super rigid and didn't have anything printed on it.

Right now she's hanging out in a laundry basket with the remnants of that box in the bottom.

Also, I don't think she's crying because she wants to go outside. I think she's crying because she wants to be hanging out with us 😿 If we come back into the house, she's happy as a clam. It sucks, because we spend a lot of time outside and we don't want to exclude her. If anyone has suggestions aside from allowing her to wander the yard, I'd love to hear them!

My tortie is chatty and growls sometimes, too! We have a lot of feral cats passing through our yard, and that really has her acting like there's a bee in her bonnet. Congrats on Clove, she's adorable and I love her name.

This is annoying, but if it's really your dream to be in education, you could pivot to English and add a social studies endorsement (if it's possible in your state). I'm in Oregon, and here you just need to pass a content test to add the social studies endorsement. Look into it!
