Hi, just thought I would introduce our feisty menagerie. We have four cats, two boys and two girls.
The eldest is a male Persian, two years old. His name is Monty:
He's a big monster of a cat, all muscle and loads of long hair that's soon going to be all buzzed off. Very shy, Monty is easily startled and quick to run, he was mistreated by his previous owner and doesn't like strangers. But if it's just me around he calms down and likes to lounge and play.
Next is Teega, a sweet tabby:
She's a silly cat, very vocal. She loves to tease and snuggle. She's celebrated her first birthday recently.
Our second girl is a cute little Tortoiseshell named Raven:
She's the pushy boss around here, queen of the house. Despite being eight months old she is still quite small. I don't think she'll ever get that big, none of the Torties I've had have.
And here is our fourth cat, Fritz. A coworker of mine asked me to babysit him while they were out of town and then they called to say they weren't coming back. So now he's all mine:
I don't mind keeping him at all, Fritz is the friendliest, sweetest tomcat I've ever had, he's a squishy lapcat who loves a belly rub.
Your cat family is precious! I especially love your tortie girl, Raven. (My tortie girl, Buffy, is also a small cat.) The look on Monty's face in the first picture is priceless.
No cat glares like Monty and hah! we make jokes about him being a member of the KISS army too. :mrgreen:
Oh and I forgot to mention Fritz, the orange one, is a polydactyl. Six toes on each front paw, he's got working thumbs, he picks up stuff with them, so cute.
I love your kitties and your descriptions of each of them! The name Raven is great too. I've always thought that if I had a black kitty, she would be named Raven.
Thanks! That's why we named her that, as a kitten she was almost completely black with a sort of shimmery coat. Her real colors started coming later. Of course, once we started taking pics of her the flash would expose her coming coloring.
Meet my new guy! He is a little less than a year old and I adopted him about 2 weeks ago. He is a sweet tabby guy with buff colored fur and I can just not settle on a name for him.
The grey kitty is his new brother, my 3ish year old cat Oscar. He is quite shy and a bit skittish, but he has...
We’ve just welcomed a beautiful little half Persian kitty into our home (female, 8 weeks old) and I can’t work out what colour she is?! She’s got tabby markings but she’s very dark grey/black, with random ginger patches and some ginger stripes?! (I think I’ve attached some photos..)
Aka 'Bitty Bitster'.
It's been almost two months. It's been interesting. I've never had a cat that came with so much... baggage. He was over the top crazy hyperactive when he first got here. The first three weeks were really challenging. He's settling in now nicely and BookNix are doing...
:catSo I haven't been on here very much since I went on the road. I was driving a truck but decided it wasn't for me and resettled in Missouri. I wanted a cat, was going to wait but of course this guy showed up outside my building. He seems to be about 4 months old, a total doll very socialized...
