Adventures in Craigslist is a whenever-we-find-something-interesting series in which we dive headfirst into the vast complexities of the Washington region’s Craigslist. Today: that’s…a lot of cats.

I don’t use the term “cat lady” loosely. It’s actually kind of offensive, and The Simpsons has really cornered the market on the joke. But sometimes, the moniker just seems totally appropriate. For example: when applied to the kind of person who places an ad on Craigslist for a Dupont Circle sublet which the new occupant will have to share with 16 cats while the original renter is in Denmark attending a cat convention.

We can’t accuse the poster of being inconsiderate, though — at least the ad outlines the individual character traits of each “housecatmate.” The full ad:

For sublet, June 3rd – August 25th. 1 BR in a 2BR apartment in Dupont circle. Furnished, all utilities included.

I will be away for the summer in Denmark attending the summer-long Danish Cat Convention. You will share the apartment with 16 well mannered cats and 2 Roombas. The cats will occupy the other bedroom, and the roombas will be on patrol to help keep the hair situation under control. I will ask that you refill the cats’ automated food dispensers once a week, and clean the Roomba filters every three days or so. Below is a brief description of the housecatmates:

Polly – shy, quiet, tabby
Bitnum – playful, clawy
Lightning – slow, old
Lighting II – slow, young
Bebop – paranoid, jumpy
Cappy – sneaky, grouchy
Apina – knowledgeable, soft
Grobor – Incessant, loquacious
Kyle – stylish
Leesha – aged, engaged
Somtorious – idle
Gleebok – green-tinted
Horatio – friendly, mild-mannered
Bananana – a little off
Hoppy – jumpy
Duran – pensive

Roombas:
Gregor – Robotic, kitcheny
Sandra – Robotic, hallway-y

I don’t know, that Cappy sounds like a real troublemaker. (Stay outta my food, moocher.) Having a cat named Bananana who is “a little off” might be a dealbreaker, too.
