    Lavinia is here: PICTURES, post #7!

    Remember my posting about trying to find new homes for 11 of Simon's 12 cats (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=165890&).. the ones from the Christmas Eve fire where I was the petsitter (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=165178)..

    Well, guess who is here now being fostered or maybe even permanently! - Lavinia! She's a Siamese with kind of a fluffy coat (which mats easily and is somewhat matted all the time.. I'm working on that now) - I don't know if that's a different breed or just a variation. She's somewhere in her mid to late teens.

    She's the one who went to the E.R. for the night of the fire.. She had all kinds of things going on as it was, so she was brought back by them to basic maintenance level.

    When I came to get her on Tuesday, she was sneezing quite a bit, so I took her to Simon's vet to check for a URI. I didn't want my other five cats to get it if she had one.

    She's been doing fine here. I've kept her apart from the others for the meds course, but I let her out to explore some today. Bob and Elmer both hissed and growled, but the others just watched her, and she was totally unfazed by them.

    I don't have any photos of her yet, but I will soon.

    More later..

    Here are pictures!

    I took a few pictures tonight. Turns out Lavinia is one of these cats who can tell just when the flash is about to go off and shuts her eyes.

    Here are the few I was able to get in mid-squint and you can just see a bit of her blue eyes:

    Welcome to Pet Talk sweet Lavinia. My goodness what a regal princess you are and I love your pretty blue eyes. I wonder if you know just how lucky you are to find such a loving home. Hope to see more of you sweetie.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Oh such a pretty girl. And stubborn, too, squinting so that we can't see her pretty blue eyes. Lucky girl, as well; she's in a good, safe place now, that's for sure.
    Blessings,

    She's likely a Himalayan/Siamese mix. Himalayan as a breed is a cross between Siamese and Persian, and not every one ends up with the flattened face of the Persian, some look more Siamese in the face, like Lavinia does.

    Lavinia is a beautiful lady kitty. Her markings are lovely. She has sure
    been through a lot of upheaval lately, but I hope she can settle now that
    she has you to care for her.
