Cuddles
She is our oldest cat, 10 years old. We got her when kk was 5 years old. I remember that day like it was yesterday. We had found by chance that there was a kitten that needed a home so the girls and I went to go see her. She was so cute, a tiny little thing with the most beautiful markings: gray tabby with brown and just a little bit of white. She had the cutest black lips. She was hiding behind a bunch of stuff but as soon as the owner dug her our and placed her in front of us she climbed into kk's lap curled up and fell asleep. My 5 year old kk looked up at me and said "mommy, we could name her Cuddles".
Tigger
This picture says a lot about my Tigger. He is a true courious kitty with a lot of energy. He likes to stir the pot! He is 3 years old. I litterally stubbled on him, a friend of mine and I were out one evening and saw a super adorable cat with big beautiful eyes. As I went to pet her I noticed that she had kittens under her (still wet) they had just been born. Unfortunatly mommy kitty was to ferrel to keep and Tigger is the only survivor of her litter. We are blessed to have this crazy little man.
Also 3 years old. We got Milo when Tiggers sister pastaway unexpectedly, Tigger was lost without her. We were very lucky the two boys hit it off very well and became quick buddies. Milo is a very shy little man with a very sweet way about him. He is silky soft we love to pet him.
Simon
Simon is about 2 1/2 years old. He is a Mainecoon. I have wanted a Mainecoon for several years so to have him is quite a treat. Mainecoons are a large breed cat, he is 18lbs and not fat at all. Tigger is 11lbs. We got simon when he was almost 2 years old and it had taken him quite some time to adjust but he has been well worth the wait. He has really begun to include himself in our daily activities and he to is very shy, but so sweet and loving.
Sadie and Gracie
Sadie/Black Kitty and Gracie B&W Kitty: I had a hard time trying to decide if I should give them their own bio or one together. Sadie is about 8 months old and Gracie 7 month, I got them from a homeless pet organization in my area. I was not planning to get anymore cats, I already had 4, that should be enough, but.... I had a black cat for 17 years that passed away about 3 years ago. When I went to pick her out she reached out of the cage and grabbed me. Well guess what, Sadie did the same thing, it broke my heart to leave her in the kennel and go home without her, I had sworn that if another black cat ever did that to me again I would not leave the cat there. This tormented me for a week. Knowing that she would be gone I went back just to see. Well there she was. I was not going to walk out without her again. She had a buddy in the kennel with her and they were cuddled up like one together and grooming each other. KK insisted that we could not leave the other behind, I agreed. I am so glad we took both! So... they have been together since the begging so they got bio'ed together.
I love your blog!
ReplyDeleteMilo reminds me so much of our Jack - he even has the white whiskers like Jack. And Simon is gorgeous...I'm a sucker for Maine Coons. I'll have to dig up a picture of mine (now deceased). I miss him so much.
You're off to a great start! Yay you!
