Having Randie look Beebs right in the eye and saying, “No. No, I won’t.” would have been priceless, but completely out of Randie’s character.
Twinkie, for as much of a pain as he is, knows where to find refuge, though, so whether Randie would take care of him is a moot point; he’s going to be there regardless. I hope they find him in time for the trip to Portland, because there’s no way Randie can get him there after Beebs is gone; Twinkie probably has that kind of “trip I don’t like” radar.
BB is such a user. She already knows full well that Twinkie’s not going to Portland and Randie will be stuck with him. In fact, I think she planned it that way: “Destiny, ya know? They both have ‘ie’ names.”
E/O… So they do! Oh, I don’t think Beebs is a user… she’s just a flighty/not payin’ attention/sometimes irresponsible pet owner… Granted you want to hit her over the head with a pooper scooper at times… but she’s been a friend to Randie… especially in her times of need.
EO… I’m sure she’d love her little free-spirited spitfire there with her. What we’re talking about is fortuitous luck for squid faithful, not so much for Randie and Max. Love the cat, despite your inner loathings, or suffer the consequences. And no fake affection either, cats hate that and will show it. Remember, sharp retractable claws on leaping kitties can be lethal.
brig… The way you describe Beebs–flighty, roaming, oft irresponsible–fits Twinks oh so well. Scary thing, isn’t she supposed to be some sort of counselor to the emotionally damaged?
brig… Love the name of the food store. I’m assuming that Beebs feeds Twinks much healthy-goodness food. No wonder he’s so ornery. How much good-for-you food can you endure if your name is Twinkie? So, does Enid like Twinks? What of Grace? Seems that there’d have to be someone compatible in Cypress Gultch if the Tasmanian Devil Cat gets stranded.
Didn’t know that Beebs was a “Motivational Speaker”, did ya?
So, it that a no?
Hmm, Randie, draft dodger, conscientious objector, goldfish elitist, passively-aggressive pacifist principled political protester and/or alleycat bigot?

If a cat is missing and no one is around to be tormented, is it still a jerk?
Yah… sometimes Randie would rather say one thing, but winds up saying another…
Dave… hmmm…. maybe ask the neighborhood cats… and small dogs.

Find that cat! Get Twinkie outta Randie’s life.

Stick… you’re thinking of Enid… she’s the art therapist/do-gooder. Beebs works at a Health food store… Happy Planet Foods.

See, I’d probably just ship the cat to Portland if that happened. It’s worth the money!
Does anyone remember that notorious internet clip of the woman who put the cat in the garbage can? Yeah, let’s hope she ended up in a trash compactor.
As for Randie, well…that cat’s given her enough grief to warrant a one-way trip to the rubbish bin.
