minus-squareskylerOPMlinkfedilinkEnglish3•edit-22 years agoIf I had a nickel for every time someone asked me where I got my cat’s blanket I’d have two… I found it in a closet at my grandma’s house several years ago. And I think it was in that closet for a few decades before I found it. Its tag was already cut off when I found it, so I don’t have any way to identify it.
