Should be no problem. Girls love cats.

Sounds like a Doctor Seuss book ... or an Adam Sandler movie.

Wanted: Woman. Must like cats, housekeeping in a shipping container. No fat chicks, trailer trash.

22 pussies makes that 23 one kind of hard to find I think

I say let him be. He's living his own life. I bet there is a woman for him up there in Alaska somewhere.

Exactly where are you going with this, subby?

Well, at least it beats living in a van down by the river, God rest Chris Farley's soul.

Did you ever see that photo on the web of the trailers on this giant multi-level frame like some kind of trailer Habitat? You can build things like that with shipping containers, and since there's nothing to ship back to China except wheat and oil, there's a plentiful supply of shipping containers in any port city. You could build a real-life Sweet Haven (Popeye) if you had the gumption. You might even be able to get the shipping containers for the trouble of hauling them away.

I have a neighbor with 26 cats, 15 of which he keeps inside, so I'm getting a kick, etc.

TFA: It was still summer when Jim Hershberger packed up his 22 cats at his homestead in the Mentasta Mountains, hauled them down a mountain on a sled and loaded them into a raft.

Wait, hold on a sec. He locked them in crates and then put them on a small watercraft? I mean, I'm sure it was a totally safe raft and not the kind of crazy person capsize-o-matic that we would expect from somebody who, say, has 22 cats, but still.

As someone who has made drawings of shipping container houses I'm getting a kick.

I stayed in a shipping container for two weeks in Alaska when I went to fish for salmon.

But the cats came back.

My understanding is that in order to get a woman, first you need to get the power and the money.

Ladies, if you go to Alaska to find a man the odds are good. But the goods are odd.

Animal Control found the cats to be in good condition, so where is the charge of cruelty coming from? I love cats and I don't see it, based on the description of how he cares for them and how much trouble he's going to to get them back.

Never ceases to amaze me how municipalities can penalize multiple pet ownership, but have little problem with women squeezing as many primates out of their vaginas as they want.

Maybe another suggestion could be, don't be a woman in the first place?

Congratulations on keeping your priorities straight up there. I'm sure the sense of futility helped.
