They named him Orenji which, as Alan may know, is Japanese for orange. It seems a fitting name for a Ninja (which he must be, having survived the Winter outside) and he is kind of Zen. 🐈
Much as I’d like to see this person out of office, I have to say that reading the list of charges I’m thinking, “That’s all they have to deal with?” Compared to DT, it’s small potatoes.

Trumpocalypse review: David Frum bushwhacks a new axis of evil [Click] “Frum’s journey is emblematic of our ongoing political realignment.

DeleteDid Orenji remember what a litter box is for?
ReplyDeleteSurprisingly, I’m told he just knew. Of course, they scent the litter with something that encourages use by a cat.
