    A New Addition to the family.

    YUP, that's right, I received another cat tonight.
    To make a long story short, he is a ragdoll mix, 8 months old and named Dennis. I am not crazy about that name, so I have re-named him.
    The woman who first had him, is named Liz. She got him from a farm when he was about 6-8 weeks old. The past two months he has developed behavioral problems by pooping in the house. He was fixed last month and had his shots. He has been checked by a vet and he couldn't find anything wrong. He says it is behavorial. Sooooo Liz's hubby has had enough, (he doesn't like the cat anyways), and told Liz that she had 24 hours to find another home for him or he was going to take the cat in the car and drop him off in another neighbourhood. She knows my love for cats, so gave me a call.
    I told her to bring Dennis over. I got some Feliway spray today in hopes that will do the trick. He has been here now for about an hour and a half, pooped and pp'd in the litter box, ate & drank, played with some toys and gave me a whole lot of lovins and big time PPPUUURRRSSSS!!!!
    It was hard to get some good pictures as he wouldn't keep still. All in due time.

    Okay, okay that is enough about Dennis. On with the pictures in the next post.

    Ohhhhhh "What is over there that I see"


    Soon sweetie, soon you will get to meet some of the other boys.


    I will be bringing him to my vets to have some blood tests done, before I start with the introductions.

    I hope you enjoyed our new addition, Nugget.

    He's gorgeous! Those little painted toes are just adorable!

    I'm willing to bet that his behavioral problems were triggered by the nasty hubby's dislike of him.

    That's what I was thinking also, because apparently the hubby would kick the cat away from him or pick him up and throw him.
    He never wanted another cat in the first place as they have one already plus a Great Dane.

    One thing for sure, Nugget will NOT be kicked or thrown ever again.

    You're right about the new husband, AbbyMom.

    Liz should just take him to a FAR AWAY neighbourhood, blindfolded, and drop him off. Preferably where everyone else speaks fluent Martian.

    What a beautiful little Nugget of gold! So happy he can still be so loving!

    I know exactly how you feel about the hubby people. I had a few choice names for him myself.

    Thanks for your lovely comments on Nugget.

    So glad to see Nugget has a home with you. He sure is a beautiful boy!

    Your right, that hubby needed to be the one took to a very bad neighborhood and thrown from a car very hard while driving 70 or 80!

    Welcome to Pet Talk, Nugget, and Welcome to your brand new wonderful, loving home at last!

    Willie

    Thank You, kittycats_delight for my new siggy!!!

    AWW! Thank you for adopting him and giving him the love he deserves!

    You know, there really should be a law on things so sickeningly cute.
