For Multiple Cat Households

[zippy-kat]

I'm curious... for those of you with cats of more than one sex, do you consider them to be brother/sister (even if they didn't come from the same litter)? hubby/wife? other?

Clarice and Tinker are mother/daughter.

They are? WOW! They look so different!

I guess I call all my boys brothers....even though they are not really. Gucci and Tsoomi came alone, Milki and Kfitzi are half brothers- they have the same daddy! (which we saw by the way at the cat show and he looks just lke Milki!)

Casper and Kitty's dad was black, just like Casper, and mommy was more or less the same as Kitty is now, a bit more greyish. The other sister looked like Kitty too, also a bit more grey.

I regard mine brother and sisters even though they come from different litters.

I can't consider them husband and wife can I, with 2 females and 1 young male, it's either a love triangle or a husband with multiple wives or two females who share a tomboy...

Yum Yum and Dutchess are sisters but from different litters

Panda and Braydee are mother and son.
Spence and Frisco may be related in some way. I bought them both from the same breeder. I consider them all my kids, but I've really never thought of what they are to each other. There's certainly a bit of rivalry occasionally

BAGEL AND KETCHUM ARE TRUE BROTHER AND SISTER FROM THE SAME LITTER. DAN IS FROM A DIFFERENT LITTER NO RELATION. BUT I CALL THEM ALL BROTHERS AND SISTER.
DAN ADORES BAGEL WHO IS HALF HIS SIZE AND RULES THE HOUSE!

LOL
That's definitely a sticky situation, Gio!

I consider all my boys as brothers even though they are different ages. When I have had both boys and girls, they are considered brothers and sisters. I think they would prefer being casual acquaintances though.

Tubby & Peanut aren't related in any way except that they are both cats. But I still call them brother and sister as in "Tubby, where's your snotty sister?"

"Casper and Kitty's dad was black, just like Casper, and mommy was more or less the same as Kitty is now, a bit more greyish. The other sister looked like Kitty too, also a bit more grey."

Seems that daughters take after their mothers and sons take after their fathers. Interesting because that happens so often in humans too.

I have 2 adult cats (1 male, 1 female) and 2 young cats/kittens (1 male, 1 female). They were all adopted so they are no relation to each other. I consider my adult male the alpha/leader of the cats. The 2 kittens are fairly close in age, so they act like brother and sister.

The two brothers, Joxer and Quincy, are well, brothers. Their mom Jan is still their mom, even though she sometimes acts younger than them. (Does this make her their bratty little sister?)

The oldest, Sidney, is the one that is no relation to them. But we think of him as Jan's "brother" and as Quincy's and Joxer's "uncle".
