my daughter adopted a cat this past weekend. he came from the rescue with the name "Prince" but she's wants to give him a new name. thus far everyone's been calling him 'the Kitty formerly known as Prince'

Lol! You should just keep the name like that.

Kittywise, it was kind of a sad day today for me. My mom told me that my beloved ginger tabby Werner has passed away. I got him at around 1997 as a kitten and we had fantastic times together. He was a very cuddly kitty. No matter how you would lie down, he came and laid on you, even if you were lying on the side. When he lived with me, he was an outside cat, cause my apartment was too small. He would follow me around wherever I went, like a little dog, it was super cute. He slept on my pillow at night. When I went to study abroad, my parents took him, and they loved him so much and he had it so good there that I left him with them. He was old and seemed to have some kind of kidney failure and passed away being petted by my mom today. He will be sorely missed. RIP Werner...

Aww, poor kitty. :( I'm sorry Lisa! That really sucks! RIP Werner.

I loved this, the cat looks exactly like ours. The way she follows the paper with her head is adorable!

I can relate to pretty much all of those things! ... I actually DO say "Yes, yes, I know" when my cat is randomly meowing.

I saw that on the news tonight and immediately thought of this thread. Awesome cat!

I'm adopting this sweetheart next Saturday.

Just hope The In-house Diva doesn't take too long to come around.

is that a dilute calico kitty?

northerndragon

She definitely looks like it, even funnier/coincidentally she's kinda looks like the short haired version of my fluffy kitty Iris.

Leezestarr313

Very pretty cat! Good luck with bringing it with the other one together!

northerndragon

Ya it's going to be an adjustment that for sure. Luckily I know the people who have to give her up (allergies :( ) and have a good idea of her personality and I know my kitties and I think we will be ok. She is also only about a year old so still young enough I think.

Leezestarr313

Best of luck! We're still thinking about getting a second kitty as well. We are renovating a house right now and once we moved and settled in, we will give it another thought. I am working from home, so I see what our kitty does the whole day. And I can see that she is bored. When I am busy, I cannot play with her the whole day. I think she would beneft from having a pal. But we'll have to see. First we have to get the house ready to move in and her adjusted to the new surroundings

I introduced cats before (one has since died). It wasn't too hard but toon a couple weeks before i felt comfortable leaving them together unsupervised. You just need to keep them separated and introduce them gradually with positive reinforcement. One thing I did that seemed to make the most difference was separate them by glass (like a sliding glass door) so they can both see each other, and then feed them treats and pet them while they are one opposite sides of the glass. This gets them to relate one another to good things while easing the stress they feel being in the same room together.

Leezestarr313

Our kitty doesn't like treats lol she is a special one.... We'll see what happens once we dare it. I hope all goes well with your fur babies, northerndragon!

northerndragon

Thank you I'm hoping for the best, my kitty has lived with another cat about eight yrs ago and it was good so I'm hoping she will be good with the new member of the household.

northerndragon

Also I have one of those strange kitties that doesn't like treats, never heard of another one before now lol.

PJ_Soul

Well you guys could feed your weird treat - hating cats whatever they love, lol. I had a cat who loved green olives with pimento, and my cat now loves caramel! 8->
