Sabrina, Sassy & Josh New Pix

[Catlady711]

Well my former bottle babies are so grown up now! They are now 8 1/2 months old. None of them are as big as Cami, but Josh is close. I haven't gotten a weight on them in a while, sorry. We've been working on collar training the babies but I'm running into a problem with getting a collar small enough for Sassy & Sabrina. The elastic cat collars I got are on the smallest adjustment and still a little big for Sabrina and hangs off of Sassy. I'd been planning on using the regular cat collars as trainers until they got used to them, then work up to small dog collars for the leash training. However I'm thinking particularly with Sassy I'd probably be better off just getting a chihuahua collar! lol She's soooooo tiny, I'm guessing around 4-5 lbs? Sorry Josh appears so dirty, he gets into everything dirty, and all the cats are due for a bath soon.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Sabrina seems to be all torti complete with Torti-tude if you try doing anything she doesn't want to do! She hasn't really found a buddy with the other cats, she seems to prefer hubby to anyone else. The minute hubby comes home she meows and dances around his easy chair, the minute he sits down she jumps up in his lap and pushes her feet in his belly and shoves her head under his hand for pets. She's also the most likely to go running behind the couch with a bushed up tail if there are any sudden noises.

Sassy is such a tiny little girl. She may be torti but doesn't act like one, she's very sweet and loves all people. She likes all the other cats, and even Dusty doesn't mind her. Bear is her best buddy though, they groom each other at times. Everytime I go in the bathroom she runs up and dances around on the sink, she's waiting for me to brush my hair because I brush her with my brush and it makes her so happy. She does this 'double purr' thing with a lot of squeaking when she's really, really happy! She loves to sleep under my covers with me at night. She's most likely to be on the counter, even though she gets squirted alot for it, she's persistent.

Josh is such a big boy now, and looking more like Jack every day. Mom & hubby get the two mixed up frequently. I have to look twice sometimes, but I don't mix them up often. Josh loves to sleep over your face or wrapped around your head at night. He has this VERY LOUD purr which is why mom calls him 'motorboat' plus he's always talking with this cute little 'mgrroouuww' sound. lol He most likely to be getting into things. Hubby has taught him a new trick, when hubby stands in the kitchen and pats his chest, Josh will jump up for hubby to catch him. :D It's very cute but he will only do it for hubby, not for me :( The only bad part with his trick is he keeps jumping up on hubby when he's trying to fix dinner. I warned hubby to be careful what tricks you teach a cat. lol

Oh my, my, my. Look how big these beauties have gotten. A job well done on your part. :)

Sabrina & Sassy are such pretty girls. I loved reading all about them and seeing those lovely pictures of them.

Josh, what can I say about Josh, except the fact that this guy seemed to pull at everyones heartstrings. It's easy to see mistaking him for Jack. Unbelievable. He is defintely one gorgeous guy.

They were so darn adorable when they were widdle and now they have turned into such beautiful cats. :)

Thank you for the updates on the trio. :D

[jennielynn1970]

What stunning kitties you have! It's just amazing the changes from when they were babies! I love Sassy and Sabrina... my mom has a tortie girl who is tiny as well, and she has such attitude! Josh is just an absolutely breathtaking! So so handsome!! Your others are beautiful as well!! They all look extremely happy!

[Grace]

Oh my - they do clean up nice!!

The girls are gorgeous, and Josh is the spitting image of Jack, but just a wee bit smaller. Love all the pictures.

Thanks for sharing.

[Prairie Purrs]

It's been wonderful to watch these three sweethearts growing up. What a delightful trio!

[krazyaboutkatz]

Wow!!! They've all turned into gorgeous cats.:) The pictures are wonderful and thanks for also adding their kitten pictures so we can see how they've grown. You've done a terrific job raising them.:) I'd also mix up Josh and Jack. Sometimes I mix up my Sky and Ziggy because they also look similar from a distance.

[CatLuvrs]

WOW! It is really amazing how much Josh and Jack look alike. They are so adorable. I love Torties

[CultureJunky]

Oh lovely lovely pictures, just look at Josh! He's so so handsome, what a hunk. And look at the girls, so pretty. I remember the bottle baby pics!

[Freedom]

** sigh** And all is right in the world.

What a terrific way to start the day. Thanks so much for posting, they are truly part of the PT family!

[Donnaj4962]

My, my, my..... what cutie patooties are all of your babies! They have really grown into gorgeous little ones!

[Catlady711]

I'd also mix up Josh and Jack.


Fortunately Josh has a tiny patch of dark hairs on his forehead and a couple dark hairs on the back of his head, so if someone is really baffled they could just pick them up and look for black hairs. lol

[Vermontcat]

They have all grown into such beautiful cats! :D
It was nice to see photos of them as they grew.
You did a great job raising them, thanks for sharing their story and photos with us. :)

[catmandu]
