Wife & I are going to see a couple 5mo old kittens next week to see if one might be a good addition to our home. I think Chains is definitely missing out on the companionship she had with Alice.
We're reading up on how to integrate a new cat, in the hopes one of these two seems like a good fit.0 -

Thanks for the kind words.We could easily go the kitten route if we were so inclined… our angel of a neighbor took in a foster from Florida who was sent up in advance of hurricane ian… turns out she was pregnant, so we have a new liter to go visit & help socialize.But in the end we know we don’t want one that young. The cats we’re going to see next week are 5 months old, which is about as young as we want to go… we’re also talking to our neighbor about the mama cat, she’s about a year old, and very sweet. She’s super friendly w/ my wife & I when we go visit.0

Cute photos. I miss my kitties. Heading home on Monday from visiting my family.0

She squeezed herself in the space between my legs that are under the blanket. She looks like a furry snake.

Really weird, scary thing happened this evening. I got up from a chair and lost my balance and went down hard arm first on the table next to me where Annie was sitting. She often likes to hang out near one of us. It happened really fast and I came down hard on one of Annie's front legs. She freaked and tried to get away and the claws on her other front leg caught my right hand and dug in and she hung from my hand for a moment and I yelled out in bad pain and she ripped loose and took off. I was totally freaked out wondering how badly I had hurt her. We finally found her under the couch (it has a six in space underneath) and she was having nothing to do with either of us, especially me. Oh man, I felt bad. Really bad. C. finally coaxed her out and checked out her leg and nothing was broken. It seemed OK although she was walking a little gingerly on It for a while. Three hours later and she seems to be walking OK now.But oh man, do I feel baaaaad. My hand doesn't feel so great either but I doused it in alcohol, so it should be OK. At least it wasn't her teeth. That would be very problematic. What a nightmare.Poor kitty! I feel terrible!Post edited by brianlux on"It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0

Hope you're ok, Brian. Glad to hear nothing too serious happened.0 -
Shouldn’t count my chickens before they’re hatched, but…. we filled out the application to adopt Nova here…. Hoping to pick her up the Monday or Tuesday before Christmas…. We’re probably overthinking the whole integration, but other than that, we’re looking forward to getting her settled. Wife kind of likes Nova, but Nuala (sounds like “Noolah”)came to me right after our first meeting, I think that’s going to stick.0
