Wow! So you are serious about possibly adopting another cat.:) I looked at her website and she looks very familiar to me. I think that we've seen her at the Cat Fancy show in San Jose. Zephyr sure has beautiful markings.:) I'd be glad to come with you to talk to her and possibly see Zephyr.:) I thought that you're heart was set on Russina Blue's though.;)Quote:

I've always loved the Russian Blues and the Orientals. I figured that the right cat will find me when the right time comes. :) I did feel a pull from Zephyr though. :o
**hugs**
Whoa - did I miss something?Quote:

Zephyr has such HUGE ears :) what a cutie! I'm sure he'll grow into them.
Red, sent you a PM.
Zephyr is a cutie, but it might be too soon yet to make a decision. I did feel a "pull" from him, but maybe it's just I feel connected with these types of cats?
I figured it wouldn't hurt to speak with Marva and get more information about the orientals though. ;)
In any case, I'm sure I'll find the right cat when the time is right. :)
**hugs**
I'm having trouble getting in touch with with the lady I'm staying with.
Several of us are getting together for pizza tomorrow night.
I'll try to give you a call tomorrow, KAK.
{{{hugs}}}
I'm getting very excited!!!:D AmberLee, Carla, and I should hopefully be leaving for the cat show around 1pm or so. Carla had a meeting to do so this is why we're getting a late start. Don Juan's Mom will meet us there.:) I'm bringing my camera and will try to take lots of pictures. Tomorrow we're planning on heading out much earlier so we can hopefully be able to see things that we've missed today.:) I know we'll all have a great time.:D
I had a great time today.:) I was able to see most of the cats in their cages and I also saw most of the breed profile lecture. I brought my camera but I didn't end up taking any pictures. I will be taking pictures tomorrow.:)
AmberLee, Carla, and I will be getting a much earlier start tomorrow and should be there by around 10:30am or so. It stays open until 4pm so we should have plenty of time to see and do everything that we want to.:)
We'll be there around noon. See you then! Georgia
It was great meeting up with everyone again! There were so many absolutely beautiful cats! I'll post some pictures that I got from the show later... :)
I also had a great time.:) I didn't end up buying much. I only bought one cat t-shirt. It has cats in cable cars on it. I've never seen this before and I thought it was very cute.:) I took a few pictures and I'll post them here.
Here's a very cute Silver Marbled American Short Hair.

Sooo many beautiful kitties!!! Wanted to take them all home :D
BCBlondie! I didn't know you were there! I'm so sorry we missed you! Wasn't that Cat-Minster thing cool? We didn't take any pictures, but saw LOTS of kitties and kept running into Pet Talk people. I even got to pet a Selkirk Rex - their fur is so soft - and a sphinx. It really is like petting a warm peach. Wolflady, Amberlee, KAK - it was good to see you all again.
The show was totally fun! I LOVE those orientals! *swoons*
Thanks for posting those pictures, Tracey. Holding that kitty was like holding a warm water bottle. He was so sweet!
All of the cats at the show were beautiful though, and we met some nice folks who were willing to talk to us about their breeds.
I went a little crazy with the shopping and purchased a couple of t-shirts, a mug and a tiny white kitty. :)
It was good to see PTers at the show!
**hugs**
Redhedd - I think I saw you! Was it you when I was with AmberLee andd (omg I can't recall her name.. :o ).. when you were walking out of the Cat-Minster show and waved to us and told us we could go in? LOL Or maybe I'm losing it :rolleyes: haha
Yes! That was me. I was with a male friend who had never been to a cat show. We were both getting tired, so we left shortly after that. It was a lot of fun. Next time .... and there WILL be a next time .... we MUST meet!
For sure!!! :D
Something about that photo of the Sphinx wrapped in a towel made me think of a prizefighter waiting in his corner. :rolleyes: We saw the little nekkid guy with the vest made from an athletic sock :confused: on Saturday.Quote:

Me, I came away from the show with one toy, one tiny "lucky cat" and LOTS of free samples! ;) :D

I petted that Sphynx in the picture - the one in the towel and I got TONS of samples! They were giving away lots of Greenies! My cats are in heaven!Quote:

I brought back TONS of samples. On the buying front, :o I got two books, one autographed by the author, a Christmas ornament one can add a small photo to that I plan to convert into a pin for my jacket, and a lightswitch painted with gorgeous cats -- looks like they are cavorting around Stonehenge! I planned on buying an apron with a Maine Coon on it that looked just like Livvy. Oopsie, the vendor left before I got back from Cat-minster!
I loved the show and so did my friend Carla, who put me up for the weekend so that I could attend it...
It was great to see so many familiar faces. Thanks, ladies!
