Our Beans picked our dog....lol my husband took Autzen into petsmart to buy dog food, and they were doing a kitten adoption, all the other kittens were cowering in their cages at the site of a dog, and Beans reached his paw out to touch Autzen and wanted to play with him...and my husband calls me and says you need to get over here now there is a cat with a mustache that I think just adopted our dog! lol So I went over and said yep, he's coming home with us..... I found Eliot Spencer on CL, the family said they couldn't keep him, I still don't know why they had other animals, but their loss was my gain, so in the middle of the night we rushed to Gresham and picked him up....and he just clung to me in the car on the way home, he was so scared. Tabby Lu, she picked me, unbeknownst to me she followed me around the cattery as I looked for a particular cat I had seen on their website who's story had made me want him....but he had already been spoken for and so when I finally stopped walking and looked down there she was and she stretched up my leg as tall as she could and with little bitty meows said pick me pick me!!! And I fell instantly in love. I miss her so much it still hurts to this day....but I talk to her all the time, and I know I will see her again someday.

I downloaded the Petcube app and was playing laser catch with some kitties from a shelter in PA. Now I want a Petcube for home. Having this would make me feel better about leaving him for 2 days with just someone coming in and dumping food in his dish.Of course it's a rationalization b/c basically I just want to be able to see my kitty while I'm away from home! I really want it before I go to Philly since that will be 2 nights away and my friend will be feeding him. Also, If I take him to Chicago I can have it in the hotel room while we are out (about 4 hours a night). Ideally I would want 2 since he goes into 2 rooms equally but right now you can't link two cubes together. They're working on upgrading it tho!
Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!
Beans put someone in her place last night....they were playing rough and tumble like they do, and then he growled to tell her enough, but she doesn't get the concept of enough....and he swatted her and really tore her poor little nose up this time....this picture doesn't even do it justice....I know she's a dog, but since this was done by a kitty I post regularly I thought I'd share here too....Mommy came to the rescue though and stopped the bleeding.
Actually here is a better shot I got apparently...haha

We got a new kitty....her is just a kitten...I think because she is so tiny! She is a stray who has showed up to our place....I feel she was lead to us by my little Angel Kitty in Heaven, Miss Tabby Lu....she is a Maine Coon just like Tabby Lu also....but it is very clear she is a stray as she is sooooo skinny and very dirty and she was starving and took right to eating....she is so sweet and loving and just purrs and purrs and wants to be pet and pet and she like to mush, or knead as some call it...and she is a very talkative one. She chatters up a storm.... my daughter named her....Ruby (for a character from Supernatural) and all our pets except one have a middle name(Beans, because he came with the name), so her middle name is Rose, because Chyann liked the sound of them together...

That's why I love Maine Coons, Hedo!!! All that Fur!!! Tabby Lu's fur what the same...different coloring and markings, she was swirly grey and black with a little brown and cream....and Ruby here is more like a calico coat almost but still has some Tabby cat-esque traits like the M on the forehead...and she had black, grey, brown, cream and ginger fur....

No, we still have her sequestered to the bathroom with food and liter box, she's using the liter box well. We are introducing the family slowly though, and we want to get her into the vet to see if she has a clean bill of health.

well I got the Petzi and even tho the quality isn't the best I am addicted. Fenny get treats everyday now at 3. When I go away for Philly next week I can check on him since my friend is only going once a day to give him his wet food.

My little Eliot Spencer, blue eyed baby, is going grey!!! If you look at his back closely you can see it....and he's only 4.5 years old....I just can't believe it! lol

Sweet! Love those eyes!

The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
So happy I decided to take Fenris with me on my trip to Chicago! He was a bit nervous for the first few hours but then he relaxed and enjoyed the next 5 days! Once he got his groove in the car he ate treats and even used his pan a few times. In the hotel he had no problems at all. He made himself totally at home. I am so proud of him!!!

freakin dude, he also liked sleeping right on my pillow which he doesn't do at home. I brought the fuzzy blanket he likes to sleep on near the bottom of my bed every night but on vacation he didn't want anything to do with it. Funny creatures but oh so lovable!
Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!
I spent 10 bucks on a scratch box made of cardboard. Fen loves it to death. Lays on it, sleeps on it, rolls around on it and claws the bejesus out of it! " />

Yes, I have one of these too, and it is the only thing my cat ever scratches. She absolutely loves it. I am so proud of her, lol. My other cat (deceased) scratched the furniture like mad and there was nothing that could stop her. I am so relieved that the surviving kitty isn't inclined to do the same. It's the scratching issue that will probably prevent me from getting another cat after Sid passes (hopefully a long long time from now). I think scratching or not scratching furniture depends largely on a cat's disposition, and I don't think I am willing to take the risk again. I am so lucky with Sid - she is as well behaved as a cat can possibly be in all regards. But I might not get so lucky with another cat. I loved Jonesy, my cat that died a couple years ago, but she had a lot of terrible habits that couldn't be broken, not to mention chronic medical probs. I don't think I can take the chance again. So yeah, hopefully my perfect Sid (besides the damned cat hair!) is with me for a very long time, since she may be my last kitty for a long long time. Maybe ever.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata
Aww PJ Soul. The Mr didn't want another cat after our last one. He was sooooo attached and didn't think he could be "replaced". I get it but after almost 4 yrs I was ready. We got a one year old from the "dump" (aka rescue). I went that way because by then the personality is already a bit apparent. If the cat is friendly or aloof is pretty much seen. I think maybe the the scratching would too? Anyway, you have a cat now!!! Yay!!!!

We adopted George from Kitten Rescue. It's one of the few places I allow to inundate me with emails.

Our Beans lays in that same comfy position, but with a bit more of her belly exposed.
(clearly inviting rubs and nuzzling)
Beautiful cat.
They use it but STILL scratch the couch!
