Who feeds Tako? What does she usually eat?

“Girls Just Wanna Have Fun”, Cyndi Lauper.

The over-priced vintage chair my girlfriend bought when she first moved in.

 

TAKO

If Tako sees a GIANT spider, what is her first course of action? Continue clawing the shit out of said vintage chair.

Where is the last inconvenient place that Tako has fallen asleep?

My toque. Been rocking a Canadian ushanka all winter.

TAKO 3

If Tako threw a raging party, what are the staples on the playlist?

Suicidal Tendencies, as she entices everyone to walk the narrow window ledge.

If you wake up in a Freaky Friday situation with your feline- what’s the first course of action on her behalf?

Tako lives a pretty solid life, I’m thinking status quo.
