Long Distance Relationships: Do They Work?

I don’t know how many of you remember meeting Wink back in July.

Wink is a petite, lusciously soft-haired, one-eyed beauty. She likes long walks on the beach, sophisticated conversation, and hardwood floors.

Yesterday I met this handsome devil:

Helloooooo Kitty!

This middle-aged bachelor, enjoys lounging in the sun, and can hold his own when discussing Bach or Nietszche.

His name is Ringo and he’s all man. The best thing about Ringo is that he’s too sexy for his fur and doesn’t even know it. He likes to have a good time, but also has his quiet side.

And he knows how to vogue. Here’s one for the ladies:

Rawrrrrrr! Doesn’t this just scream Electricity?

The moment I met Ringo, I knew he’d be a perfect match for Wink. The only problem is that Wink resides in Hermosa Beach, while Ringo cribs it in Sacramento. That’s a 400+ mile separation. Not a desirable thing on those cold and lonely nights.

Perhaps one night, when it’s raining cats and dogs, destiny will bring them closer together.

    I heart that kitty kat and I’m not even a cat person… any cat that is constantly winking is good by me. Here kitty kitty kitty.

    Aw! Cute goes great lengths around here towards doses of forgiveness for just about everything. Hmm. Let’s see, what do we get? Hairballs, spews, poops in unwanted places, broken lamps, whining at 4:00 a.m., shoot-over beside the boxes, 2:00 a.m. fisticuffs on the bed, tuna cans from the garbage on the bed…the list goes on. If they weren’t so danged cute…I should think they’d be in fear of an untimely demise (or at least a long car-ride out in the country). Fuggedaboutit!

    Oh my goodness. That is a total crack up. You make me laugh everytime I read your blog.
    Both are so adorable. I’m partial to Lhasa Apso (sp?), Maltese and Shitzu’s myself.

    Awwhawww oh no…. That cat is so suave.
    And I like the name Ringo.

    Perhaps…that raining or is it reigning of cats and dogs will get them together. We can’t rein them in – we’re much to soft for that so yes, they reign, rain or shine.

  • http://texaswordtangle.blogspot.com Rhea

    So, do we now need to have a discussion on inter-species dating and marriage?
    I think those two make an adorable couple but that they shouldn’t be allowed to adopt.
    Just kidding.

    Awww, pretty kitty and pooch!!
    I think their offspring might look a tad weird, though…

    Cats don’t have relationships… I know. I own four of them. Well, “own” isn’t an accurate verb. Actually, it’s more like I work for four cats and they let me live in the same house with them…

    Goodness, I’ve seen you on so many blogrolls I just had to drop in and click around. You are so entertaining. Welcome to my blogroll.

    Love this blog. My grandparents raised goats, so the name of the blog reeled me in.

    I love them both.

    Sorry. I like Wink, the sassy one.
    Ringo reminds me of a used car salesman.
    Just sayin.

    Awww!
    I was at the Pet ER this weekend…twice…and there was a dog whom they were able to save it’s eye, but a cat they didn’t think they were going to be able to. I had no idea it was such an issue.
    Mine’s eyes are okay but my gosh he gave me the scare of a lifetime, ack.

    They’re both PIRATES! They need some little furry patches.

    O.K. the dog is really cute, but the cat kind of creeps me out. I never said I actually completed the Monday list…whatever happens the rest of the week, at least I had a plan…I made an effort…

  • http://www.jbsitedesigns.com Jan

    It’ll never work, and it has nothing to do with the fact she’s a dog and he’s a cat, although we all know how tricky these inter-species relationships can be.
    They’re both, um, winking their left eye. Standing face to face, they’ll never see eye-to-eye on anything.

  • http://fatcatcrochet.blogspot.com Linda

    They are SO CUTE! We had a one eyed cat when I was a kid, looked a lot like Ringo. His name was Junior. He used to lay in front of the stove. He was so sweet.

  • http://jamesandleiann.blogspot.com Anonymous

    They were meant for each other!! Too cute!

    I have always been a great believer in long distance relationships.
    I think they can thrive and succeed.

    Some things are simply meant to be. You have to find a way to unite them, or at least teach them how to email.

    Great pics and a wicked name. We have a dog, two cats, and a hamster. Used to be two hamsters until one escaped to a glorious but brief escape. She met Ted our very large but agile tabby. :-(
    Its funny how dogs completely change things. Cats are well behaved and fairly self-sufficient. Dogs are much more like children.

  • http://www.midlifeandbeyond.blogspot.com Midlife Mama

    @ Mulled Vine: and they’re also like husbands! LOL

  • http://www.deboradennis.com/blog Saucy Scribe Debora

    OMG they are both so adorable. They have two blind kittens at a local pet store and I’ve been thinking about bringing one home for some time now.

    What an AWESOME post! Poor little kitty! I don’t have anything as cute on mine today. But I do have spooky orbs! lol

    Husbands are far less demanding than dogs, humph! ;-)

    Seriously? Honest? This had me laughing. I can’t believe you found two, one-eyed, ADORABLE pets. It was fate. They will be together…somday.

  • http://www.midlifeandbeyond.blogspot.com Midlife Mama

    LOL @ Mulled Vine: Hmmm….that hasn’t been my experience. Mine is far more demanding than a child or a dog. Hmmm….have to rethink that one. LOL

    Reminds me of this:

    Dr. Peter Venkman: This city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.
    Mayor: What do you mean, “biblical”?
    Dr Ray Stantz: What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath of God type stuff.
    Dr. Peter Venkman: Exactly.
    Dr Ray Stantz: Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!
    Dr. Egon Spengler: Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes…
    Winston Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave!
    Dr. Peter Venkman: Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!

    How strange, I was just telling a story about a one-eyed cat to a co-worker who is sporting a bruise around her eye after slipping and falling. And then I came here and saw this.
