VICTORIA

Hi,    

          I appreciate all the idea's you have E-mailed me. When our friends see her thy say she's so small, but thy love her face and big eye's, you know she has a cute face. 
 

 

 She still is unsure about me carrying her around the house, when I go into her room and put her collar +leash on she doesn't mind me carrying her outside, as you can see from the photo's, which is great. 

These photos with my other animals is to let you see what she has to deal with on a daily bases.

GREMLIN AND POOF

 

Been leaving the Weasels out 24/7. Jelly has mellowed to a high-pitched whine instead of growls, but she still leaves if they get too rowdy or too close. Little one finally started to purr after a week, Big'un purrs all the time. I didn't realize they would be able to get up on our bed, but they sure do, even with Jelly there. They NEVER lie down and they jump anything that moves under the covers with teeth and all four sets of claws. I think I have a warranty claim one Big'un..She's supposed to be MY cat, but when Laura gets home from work and sits on the couch to read the mail, she's on her lap and sound asleep. Gremlin spends all her time looking for another cat to ambush or tracking down bugs and she cleans everyone's bowls.

Let the kits into the rest of the house today. The 22lb Smurf we had would knock over furniture and people to catch and eat a fly. These girls do the absolutely same thing. Tabby growled, hissed and went upstairs to our bedroom. The kits never stopped running and wrestling for 2 1/2 hrs. Tabby came sneaking downstairs and went into the girls' room and got cornered when they saw her and crept up behind her. Big'un kind of backed off when she turned around and growled. Little "goofy" stood nose to nose with her and matched her growl for growl with her tail swollen up like a ball-bat. We plan on only letting them out when we are here. I don't think Jelly would hurt them, but she still won't make up. I guess you could call it progress. Had a hard time getting them back in the room for the nite-- they really figured out how that sliding door works and shoot for the crack like rockets. Still no snuggles. Marion& Laura

The Tasmanian Devil has calmed from 110% to 105%. 65 yrs ago I remember my G'pa shooting cats like that--said they had distemper. Our daughter came over Sun morn and got them to come out and play. Sun eve I sat in the room for about 2hrs and the older one eventually started rubbing my leg and finally let me pet her--I didn't realize how difficult it is to "pet" a cat so small--few little bones and some fur. All the cats we've ever had would go to our daughter before anyone or anything else-and she's allergic but toughs it out. Last nite I went out to scoop their pan at 10:30 before bed and ended up staying until after 12. got to hold the big'un for about 45sec and the young'un came over and licked then bit my toes. This morning I resumed the petting and got to hold both of them for about 30sec. They don't struggle as much now, but they're not into snuggling yet. They really know what the food bowls are for and they treat the litter pan like a beagle digging for a rabbit. Ou!
r !
tabby still won"t get any closer than 4ft from the screen and usually growls once and leaves . Kittens act like they'd really like to get in the living room or are curious about the tabby. Names on the Vet"s file will probably be Gremlin for little one and Poof for big'un. Usually our cats get home names after some arbitrary length of time. Right now it"s "yours" or "mine" or big'un and young'un. I think the little one is going to be the Alpha cat--she pushes into the food bowls and finishes off any leftovers.
 

 

 


 

Hey!

 

I have attached a zip folder.  These pictures are absolutely beautiful. 

 Yes Holmes is a big boy not 12 lbs.; however, maybe 11ish.  I bought a toddler scale so I can weigh him and home. 

 I wanted to make sure he wasn't losing too much weight when he had the bladder infection.  The house is fine, I am not really liking Olive Branch, MS living, but doing okay.

 

 

 


ANGUS

Hi Suzanne,


 
I can't convey how much fun we've been having with Angus. He's just the perfect cat, extremely well-socialized.

 He was ready to hang out with us and explore the house after just two days of hanging out in his room, and he is not a stranger to anyone who comes by the house to check him out.


 
Here are a few pictures, when I can get him on camera. He just won't sit still (unless you want lots of pictures of him sleeping). 


 
He started coughing a little last week in the mornings, so we've been giving him the Clavamox and that seems to have cleared things right up. Thanks for sending that in his care kit.

 
I'll send more pictures as soon as I can, but here's the little stinker now.

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


BEAR AND ENZO

 

 

Hi Suzanne,

My husband Monty and I adopted 2 British Shorthairs from you in March 2008, one cream (Bear) and one red (Enzo).  

  I have attached pictures for you.

 We absolutely adore these boys, they have the best personality!

 

 

Regards,

Kathi
