Your Guide to Adopting an Eldritch Abomination

Many people are reluctant to welcome a cosmic beast from beyond space into their homes. They wonder Will it eat my other pets? Will it plunge me into insanity? Should I take it to a vet or a priest?

Yet despite their often lurid depictions in sensationalist media, unearthly horrors are easily socialized with other pets and will often cuddle and groom them, preparing their souls for the day the Elder Gods arise to devour us all.

    Apparently the photo was taken in the home of Hezekiah Winterbottom, Professor of Non-Euclidian Geometry at Miskatonic University and founder of Eldritch Abomination Pet Rescue (“We Accidentally Bring Them Through the Portal, You Take Them Home! “)

    It looks like the unholy cross of a bat and an octopus. And the comments are just as funny as the post. I’m crying over here from laughing so hard. I love your motto Alice for the “rescue”! Even thought I wondering who might need rescuing.

    Mike I think you got right into the other cat’s head – putting its paw down on a shared litterbox.

    Given my current feline pets, I would suggest both a vet AND a priest. Also keep a squirt bottle of holy water nearby, just in case something oozes up the drapes.
