I know I've written and re-written my kitty birthday lists countless times. I know for sure Noah and Basie's birthdates, but have to "search" here for my intro threads for Jonah, Micah and Phoebe to get their approx dates.

So, FINALLY, I've had enough and want to write it out here...one search is quicker than three. ;)

Please feel free to put your kitty's special dates here as well...

Lightning
Birthday: April 17, 2004
Gotcha Day: June 12, 2004
We found him the day after school let out-also the last day of my grandmother's yard sale, the day of my dad's company picnic, and the day of my cousin's graduation! Very busy day to chase a kitty in the dark for two hours and then off to Wal-Mart for supplies!!!! :D

I like this thread !!! Great idea Kelly.

Lilith:
Birthday: February 20, 2004
Gothcha day: April 17, 2004

Vixen:
Birthday: April 26, 2004
Gotcha Day: May 31, 2004

Lilith came from a rescue just 1 day after she turned 8 weeks old. Completely unsocialized. Had never been touched by a human hand. Needless to say she tamed easily and slept on my pillow by my head that very first night. :D

Vixen came from my mother's friend. I think this story everyone knows. She was rejected at birth and buried in the blanket when she was born. The mother did not want her. My mom's friend took the blanket to throw out and out rolled Vixen just a few hours old. My mom's friend struggled with her cat to feed Vixen and had to force her to feed Vixen. Momma cat stopped feeding Vixen at 5 weeks old so I took her home and cared for her. She ate wet food readily but wasn't growing much so I started giving her kitten milk 4 times a day. She loved it and thrieved on it. Within 2 days she was exploring the house and chasing our 140lb Akita and driving Lilith crazy. :D

Allen: Birhtday unknown... last March, early April
Gotcha Date: May 25, 2001

Pouncer: May 2, 2002
Gotcha Date: July 15, 2002

Harry & Abby: July 11, 2004
Gotcha Date... tricky since they came to me as fosters. They came as fosters Sept 22, 2004. I admitted Abby (Evie at the time) was not going anywhere in the middle of October. I have to laugh... just went back to find the Evie threads to determine when she stayed here officially.... and it sounds AWFULLY familiar to the whole Flutter/Angel dilemma! :D

This is a great idea! Groucho's birthday is March 28, 2001. He adopted US when he was 7 weeks old, I'd have to check back for his gotcha day.

By the way, Noah's gotcha day just happens to be my birthday, how great is that??!!??

Now this is a great idea! I sit around trying to keep them all straight but lose track real quick. I'm going to have to write them down and post them here to help me keep up with them all!

I'll join mine to the list as soon as I get my dates straight.:rolleyes:

Finnigan's birthday and gotcha day is July 7th, 1993. Not sure how old he was when he was dumped at my back door but I think about four weeks.
