Well I found this forum tonight in my frantic search to find help about why 2/3's of my cats litter passed away.
I currently have 6 cats in my household...two solid black cats (shadow and arumus), 1 calico (sadie, shadows sister), 1-22lb. black and white cat (porthos), 1 pastel calico (spice AKA momma kitty), and 1 orange tabby (Oliver (from Oliver in company) which is Spice's son). I have also three dogs and a Red Eared Slider turtle. I have a 3 year old daughter, and been married for 5 1/2 years now. I reside in the TN area and am persueing a degree in accountancy. I have always loved all animals but am now growing more fond of cats because of the personality of them. My daughter likes to try to play with all the animals but if she does something they don't like then they let her know and she comes to me crying and i tell her that she shouldn't have done that then. :lol:
Now about my cats, Sadie and shadow i found behind a cooler of a outside concession stand when they were 3 or 4 weeks old. I took them home and bottle fed then weined them and trained them to use the litter box. Shadow has been closer to me then sadie for some reason, When i was pregnant with my daughter shadow would not let my husband go to sleep unless he was on the couch. He just didn't seem to want my husband to have anything to do with me. Also when my daughter was born, he would hide under the crib and attack feet he didn't recognize. Today they are healthy 6 year old cats. Shadow didn't get some of the wild cat out of him and loves to go outside. Sadie is scared of her own shadow (not her brother). She won't even venture outside but loves to sit in the window. Porthos and Arumus are actually my roommates cats, they are about 7 years old, brothers, and are both inside cats. Spice is the momma cat she is an inside outside cat (yes i am getting her fixed as soon as she stops nursing) who i was keeping for a friend and the friend never came to pick her up so i have claimed her. Oliver (so far) is the only remaining kitten from Spice's litter. He is one month and 3 days old. The two kittens that are no longer with us were a tabby and a black and white little girls (? not sure about the tabby).
Well that is about all I can think of so enjoy!
