DLT10 thinks so! But I'm not! I just love my cats. I have 4 of them, they are all adopted from shelters. I work at a shelter on the weekends to "give back".. I'm not single or old, so at least I have that going for me!!

That's awesome! I have always said when you can leave a kid w/ a litter box and a bowl of food is when I'll have one. What are your kitties names? That's also awesome that you work at a shelter... I could never do that. I would probably start hoarding kitties!

Its good actually, I haven't had the need to bring them home. I work (volunteer) at an amazing shelter that has no cages. The cats are so happy there, and they can sit in the sun, and just love life its a no kill shelter that will keep the cats for the rest of their life if they never get adopted out. They do amazing work there.

Madeline is almost 3
Aubrey is 2.5
Caitlin is almost 2
and my kitten Noah is almost 6 months now.

Wow, that sounds like a great place. Props to you for giving back! They all get along? PJ has done nothing but his at her since I got home w/ her. I have never had 2 cats that got along.

They do get along for the most part. Madeline and Caitlin have some tension, but I live in a one room loft so they really have learned to share the space. Noah and Caitlin are like mother and son.. they love each other. Madeline and Aubrey get along well too. Noah can be a bit of a terror, but that comes with being a spunky kitten. Madeline has a bad attitude though.. we call her monkey.. she's a bitchy monkey..

7 months? I would have been devastated. Oria was 12 so she had a long happy life. Doesn't make it hurt any less though. It happened quickly and I was devastated. Still think about her everyday. Especially now that spring is here. She loved to go outside...on a leash and supervised of course. All I had to do was say the word "outside" and she would run to the front door. Gonna be rough when its time to lay in the sun. :(

I think she's gonna be Chloe. Thanks everyone for the suggestions!

Devastated is right. I'm glad I had some travel planned for the Ed shows. Moping around looking at the empty spots by the windows where she used to sit and the box of cat toys sitting idle was breaking my heart. Srping is hard for me too because she never lived to see her first one and use the outside play enclosure I built. I have been going around to my local shelter to volunteer and play with the cats. I'm going to get two sibling kittens soon. Think I'll name them EV and Stoney, no matter their gender.

Sounds like Oria lucked out getting you as her human. Have a good time with Chloe : )

Oh I saw it alright. I chose to ignore it

hmm if I had a boy cat I'd name him elvis, but I don't know what I'd name a girl. I like roxie and frankie better than dahlia- dahlia is *too* much of a people name.

Yes, I only had boy names picked out... It was either going to be Slash or Vedder but I chose the girl because of her colors and markings. Just couldn't give her a masculine name so Chloe she became. (I made a rhyme!) I had forgotten how cute kittens are. And watching PJ, who is 3.5, try to deal with her is just as cute. She doesn't even seem to care he's like 10 times her size!

I think chloe was a good choice.
haha I had actually recently thought of slash as a cat's name too.
I don't have any cats, I'm wicked allergic, but I wish I did, so sometimes I come up with names for them .

At one point I was extremely allergic... Guessing maybe I grew out of it. Although a month or so back we went to a cat show at a convention center...OMG, my allergies were going like mad. Guess I can handle 2 in my own world but not 100+ in one place.
