charisstomaThis is what a plunny looks like, just in case you needed to know.
Seeking Galileo commented -- I have a feeling that Fergus isn't the only one that will find a wizard of his own. I'm sure some of the others are like Whisk and Grunt who will end up in and out of the Familiar shelter but there must be many who are like Fergus and just want a family of their own. Those papers Fergus has will be making the rounds through the cages and probably the streets.

Thank you Seeking.
Familiars - Animal Shelter Stories
There were papers being passed among the neighborhood cats. They were pretty mangled and filthy from being flattened on whatever flat surface had been handy, cats didn’t have many resources for handling people stuff. Creeping close, he caught words, just a few, about some school for cats that could be in people form. He sneezed and feline faces were turning towards his direction so he did the thing that had earned him his name, disappearing and reforming to a hidden distance off.
‘A school.’ He’d heard that word. Had it explained to him. It wasn’t what a cat did, this school thing. Your mom taught you how to hunt and what to be afraid of. Climbing and stuff, well that came naturally. But some of the cats could read, he’d heard them and watched as their heads had tracked the markings on papers like one would do a mouse or bird. His mom had said he didn’t need anything to do with people things. It only got you in trouble or worse.
Still, he’d also seen cats who looked sleek and well fed and who willingly went into houses when a people had called them. He sneezed again. It wouldn’t be bad to be someplace warm with food right now, maybe if he went to The Cages for a bit. It wasn’t like they could keep him inside if he didn’t want to be, after all his name was Poof.
(part 2)
Apparating I knew (not how to spell it correctly though) but disapparating ... This was fun to find.
What Is the Difference Between Apparating and Disapparating?

Date: 2014-03-17 02:21 am (UTC)Oh snap, I'm mid story with this one and "the creation of a homeless shelter FOR familiars" with wizard apprentice volunteers who just might find the familiar of their dreams.
There'd have to be a gala fund raiser to create it... maybe the university could sponsor the majority of it because it would be used by students like interns for hospitals.
