Retrospec Delivery strikes again

I think Retrospec sent me live... contraband, that's the word? Something that shouldn't be mailed in a box to a child randomly? Not that my guardian believes me, she thinks he's just a cute tabby cat that some really nice Retrospec employee gave me/had to give up. So did the vet we took him to, so for right now I just have an "active imagination"! Haha... Advice/recommendations for good cat food and toys would be really helpful, actually. He's really sweet, just jumpy.

You have a tiger cub that's amazing and also is he friendly? He's going to need way more meat than usual, uh. Shot. Shots, actually, that's a good idea. Toys... those heavy duty rubber balls with the handles? Eventually? Buoys like you use for boats? Right now maybe a basketball if you have any lying around you don't mind sacrificing. How big is he? Really? Like, ten pounds? Fifteen? Twentyfive?

[ ...dear goodness yuri. ]

Do you want to come over to see him? He's friendly if i'm close by. I also have his check up results too. According to the vet, he's about two months old and 10 pounds.

Those sound like really heavy duty things... are small tigers that strong?

I mean, yes? Yes I do, but I'm not going to be free until late tonight so it'd have to be some other time. Okay at two months a normal cat is maybe two pounds, how did the vet just accept that as fine? This keeps getting more wild...

Small tigers? Maybe not, but you don't want to give him anything he can accidentally eat and swallow or to train him in bad habits that he'll remember when he's big.

Oh! Two months is me trying to convert his kitten estimate to a cub estimate, which is a bit older. He thought his scale was glitching because it's electronic too, but it's better than him saying the poor guy is overweight...

Aaaaah I don't want that! I'll go to the sports store as soon as I can! The grocery store too for meat!

Or calling the police. I mean, about you know... exotic animals? Not sure what you need to make that legal, but if most people don't notice I wonder how many will at all.

Yeah don't stress out about it though? Food's more important, toys are important but right now.

[5kotai]

For now, I just want to make sure he's happy and not about to destroy my apartment as vengeance when he gets big. Maybe he'll grow up to be nice, that way.

Don't let him get bored. He's going to need so much exercise... and big cats don't use litter boxes? He'll be a tiger. Nice or not nice are different for animals like him.

[ thank goodness he'll be low maintenance after this because he's not actually a "normal" tiger. low maintenance like a yatogami or a tsukumogami... Er, wait. ]

Eck... This is not a kid-friendly job, even if it was my dream when I was six.

You think I can ask people for help with the exercise? I still have homework and stuff.

As long as you check with your mom and they're mostly people who're on Retrospec. They're gonna be better at knowing weird things are going on.

( especially when it turns out this is not a Real Tiger, so to speak. if only Yuri had any clue... oops. )

[5kotai]

I can't believe we can use this to find the people who notice... weird things?

Or maybe because we have it, we become more prone to being hit by those things.
