since I've been on this site! I have pictures of my babies to post, so I'll have to work on getting them uploaded, and then downloaded onto this site. In the meantime, here's an update:
My youngest, baby Dottie, is already 9 1/2 months old! I haven't shown many pictures of her on here at all, so I guess I have some catching up to do in that respect. She is such a lovable little girl! She always climbs up onto my lap and then stretches out in my arms, upside down, and goes to sleep, when I'm on the computer. She lays upside down in our kitchen window quite often, also. I'll have to get a picture of her from the outside, because she smashes her little feet into the screen when she is laying there, and it looks hilarious!
Little Orphan Annie is now 1 year and 3 months old! She is doing well. She still gets an eyedrop in her left eye every day, because if we don't give her the drops it starts looking red and sore again. She and baby Dottie play and wrestle all the time. She weighs about 11 pounds now. She likes our two dogs the best of all the cats. She always rubs up against Oreo, especially when he's been out of the house and she hasn't seen him for awhile.
Shadow T. is QUITE the character! He is now 1 year and 4 months old. He weighed a whopping 19 pounds at the Vet's last week! He is an ornery fart, too. He climbs into anything and everything, no matter whether it is too small or not. He is so funny. He also climbs on TOP of anything he can get on top of, then sits up there and looks down and around all over his "kingdom". He picks on his sisters sometimes, and they start vocalizing their protests, and then HE gets in trouble just because he's bigger than they are! Now how fair is that?
Angel, the oldest of my cats, is now FIVE YEARS OLD! She has adjusted well to her younger siblings, after initially going into hiding, and then growling at them whenever she saw them. Occasionally I'll catch her bathing Dottie or Annie or Shadow, but not if she knows I'm looking. She and Shadow kind of go at it once-in-awhile, too, playing.
They ALL sound like a heard of elephants running through the house when they get really rambunctious! And our bed gets pretty crowded at times with all four cats wanting to sleep with us. I work for a group of eye doctors, and at least once a week at work I have to have one of the doctors take a cat hair out of one or both of my eyes!
Sandi and Oreo are my two dogs, but they think they are cats, too, I think. They get along well with their feline siblings fairly well. That's something, considering I never would have believed it possible before we got Angel five years ago. They have been so good, adusting to not just one, but FOUR cat siblings, three of which arrived in the last year!
I guess that's all for now. I'll work on getting some pictures on here of all of them, and on reading and catching up on some other posts on here. I've been busy with work and family and vacation and social activities, and time has just kind of slipped by way too fast........................
