Sweet Wilber

[CatMama78]

Although he's been in hiding almost all weekend, Wilber does come out in the evening once he's sure we've stopped packing for a while. Look how sweet my baby is...

So sweet when he lays his sleepy head down:)

He is adorable! How sweet he is. It is so wonderful when a nervous kitty is so happy and relaxed with his family. You know then that he knows just how loved he is.
He is the prettiest color. He isn't really gray but more of a brighter silver color.
Snuggles and cuddles to you Wilbur!!! I love that name! :D :D :D :D http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif

lol, yes I guess the remote is a guy thing - what can I say....I like to be in control, lmao!

Wilber really is 2 different creatures with us vs. strangers or strange situations. He actually has an extremely outgoing personality around mom and pop, we call him Sir Meows-a-Lot . :p And he's SUCH a lovebug, turning into a true lap cat - sigh - I sure love him........And I think technically he's a blue tabby, at least that's what the Oper. Kindness people told us - they also gave him the name Wilber and we just let it stay, cause I also happen to be a big fan of Charlotte's Web. Same with Oreo, name courtesy of Op. Kindness, and well he does have a perfect creme filled tummy.

They do really good work. They take in both cats and dogs, no kill shelter of course. The volunteers are wonderful. The kitty section is lovely and I can see how a cat would be perfectly happy living out his or her days there, although a furrever home is always the ideal, but I just mean this is not a bad way to live. They have an outdoor enclosure for the cats, a huge room for the cats to play in, filled with all the toys a feline could want. Here's a link, just to spread the word on their good acts:

What a sweet boy Wilber is! :) You can just tell from the pictures how he enjoys to cuddle up.

Fister is the same, but only in the evenings in bed.

Cuddeling with Mommie and Daddy... That is SOoo sweet! I just experienced a cuddle session with Amy, who is not a snuggle bug. She got on the sofa with me and got UNDER the blanket.. I think it was more getting under there to warm up her hip/legs than to snuggle so I went ahead and took advantage of it and petted her. (This rainey weather we are having gets to her legs/hips.)

What a handsome boy you are Wilber. I just love tabbies and you are one gorgeous silver tabby for sure.
What sweet cuddly pictures.

I didn't see this until now.

Yes they were rescue kitties form Operation Kindness, a no kill shelter here in Dallas. Oreo had a sister he was brought in with, but unfortunately someone had adopted her before we got there. Apparently they were pretty close :(. But everything worked out for the best cause otherwise we may not have gotten Wilber.

When we walked in, I immediately bonded with Oreo and had my heart set on him. Every other kitten we would take out would hiss at poor Ori. TThen a volunteer walked in with a wet and scared Wilber who had just been found and bathed. Wilber and Oreo seemed to get along great, so home we went. When we got home, Ori was the hisser but that subsided quickly. They were just a liitle frightened.

Fast forward a year and a half, and I still know they were the best decision of my life :)
