I Got Ripped Off

So, I found a site that's supposed to encourage you to write by rewarding you with a picture of a kitten every time you type 100 words.  You can set it higher if you like.  I did not.  I typed and typed.  It felt like forever to get to 100 words.  I finally did it, and this is what I got:


What the shit?  I did all that work and get a kitten with NO ears?  Also, I happen to know that sand cats have extra cute ears.  They cropped them out.  Here is what the sand cat is supposed to look like.


Hemingway had a shit ton of cats so he probably had real kittens romping about the whole time he wrote.  

Today I Learned:  Use real cats for writing.

Exotic cat guy is still up and running, Karen. I don't think he's allowed to sell straight up ocelots but he does have some interesting and super expensive other cats.
