This kitty could be Miley's new brother...

And then an Aby in June.

This little guy is a year old Bengal. I hope to get him this weekend.

Love,
Sas and her Miley girl

He's gorgeous!!!! How wonderful, Miley's gettin' a little brother!!! :)

Does he have a name yet??

Aww he's gorgeous! You are so lucky!

-Allie

Yay. That would be soo cool. he is HANDSOME! Any names picked out yet? :)

He has a longer name, but I prefer the shorter version!

I am not sure about this kitty, but pretty sure. I will keep everyone posted. Miley needs a buddy and soon.

Miley and Ti: that could be a lot of laughter. I think you both need that:)

Oh, SAS, he's stunning!!! And I love the name Ti....although is it like tie die or tee?

I hope everything works out and you bring him home for you and Miley girl. I agree she needs someone soon so she doesn't get too used to having you all to herself. ;) :)

Please keep us updated, and of course, pictures, pictures, pictures. ;) :D

Oh, Wow!! How wonderful! :) He is gorgeous!!! I just LOVE Bengals and his markings are beautiful. I wish he were mine.:)

Chris

A Bengal....How wonderful!!!!! They are so fabulous! Is that "Tie" or "Tea"??

Oh, he's gorgeous! i love the colouring, and i also love bengals. i hope you get him!:)

OH yeah!! I hope you get him! Bengals are really sweet cats and beautiful as well!

Sallyann - he's one beautiful furboy and - Miley and Ti has a certain sort of ring to it! She'll love him I'm sure and spoil him rotten..........er........hmmm........or you will! Oh for goodness sake - you both will! Lovely pics., wouldn't go amiss?
Let us know his full name - please.
Our late Kisi (RB) went under the full title of Kisibi Orphelia - hence the very short name she answered to!!

I think the names Miley and Ti are cute together. I am not 100% sure that this cat will work out for us. Miley is driving me crazy, meowing all the time, and looking around for Graemer and Gabe. I surely hope a new brother will keep her calm and keep her company too. She is sooo lonely. As soon as my car pulls in the driveway she runs to the porch and starts meowing - non stop until 20 minutes after I am inside and sitting down. She never did this before her brothers left for RB.

Fingers crossed for a healthy brother this weekend!

SAS

Ti is GORGEOUS!! I love his colors! I hope that everything will work out and Miley will fall in love with her new buddy. More pictures, please!!! :D

Oh, I am in love with Ti already. I sure hope it all works out. I'll be waiting for updates.

I agree with Jen.

Though I work all weekend, every weekend, I will be eagerly awaiting updates (and sneaking in at work! in between busy times) :D

Ti is so gorgeous! I sure hope you get him:)

Ti is an absolutely GORGEOUS cat, wow look at that coat!

Oh SAS how wonderful. You know they used abys in developing the bengal breed. I wish I could get one too but Maya is the boss and I know she would make my life a misery if I ever attempted to bring in another cat. She doesn't mind bunnies though !!!! Good luck, you and Miley are in need of some fun and games and a lot of laughter. I'll be staying tuned.:)

Ti is very beautiful. I hope things work out. My nephew and his wife adopted a bengal stray who showed up in their back yard; he is very loving.

He is absolutely breathtaking!! I love bengals.. I would get one if I saw one in a shelter in a heartbeat!

Did I understand your comment correctly - you would be getting yet another cat in June?

He's gorgeous.. I wish you the best of luck :)

Yes, my plan is to get a male Aby in June. The breeder where I got Miley and Graemer offered to replace Graemer. I think she felt a bit responsible for having bred a kitty with such a weak immune system. He was quite the kitty when it came to Vet bills even before he got the bacteria infection. I guess he should have been named my million dollar kitty. He had a couple of emergency visits to the vet along with the routine visits. Anyway, I think Mindy, the breeder, wanted to be kind to me and offered another male - any color - and a couple of litters will be ready in June. So I plan to take one then. In the meantime, Miley has to have a friend to play with during the day. I didn't want to get a new Aby right now, since my heart is still broken from Gabe and Graemer's leaving. I like Bengals and was in touch with someone who has one ready for placing. As I said, the deal is not sealed yet so there is an outside chance that I will not get Ti (but I think I will.......) I hope to know tomorrow, as he was to go to the Vet for a clean bill of health.... The cat lives only 1 1/2 hours from where I live. I will keep you posted....and put my camera batteries on charge!!!!!!!:D

Shhhhhhhhhhhh. I haven't told Miley yet!

oooh what colour would you get? another one like Miley or the silvery coloured one? :D

kitties.. gotta love them! :)

I suspect I will take the cat with the best disposition. Color isn't really that important. I have had a red aby in the past...these two were rudy.....I would love a blue...but really don't care about the color, just that he is sweet and loveable. It may end up being a female.... I just don't know. It could be that I will be happy with just two and not take the Aby. I am leaving it all wide open with lots of room for change and adjustment.

I just miss my other two so darn much. They were so much fun to be around. Gabe with his beer bottle tops and Graemer with his living on the ceilings....ehehehehehehe...there was never a dull moment. Miley is sweet, and funny, just not the same way or like Gabe and Grammy Crackers!

Aww :( I think about you and Miley often.. I hope you can feel my prayers coming through!

What a precious Bengal baby.

The right thing is going to happen for you. Just follow your heart.

Sallyanne I am happy that you are deciding to take this next step. Ti sounds beautiful and I don't know very much about bengals so it will be interesting to learn about his breed through you, should you decide to adopt him. Your description about Miley when you come home at night was a heart breaker. Poor widdle Miley girl! I am sure she will love a new little 'sibling' and be happy to show him all around Camp Vermont. :D Here's hoping she doesn't develop a hot spot in the process! :eek: :D

What a gorgeous kitty... I love bengals... this one has beautiful markings! Good luck!

I should have Dandy call Miley, they could talk during the day when they are alone ;) Well, maybe they will both end up getting new brothers, time will tell :)

SAS, I remember you mentioned the June kitty when I saw you but if you and Miley are ready for a new one now then I say go for it!:)
I can imagine Miley is lonely when you are at work and extra clingy with you when you are at home. If you do get the Bengal(he is handsome) this weekend, my camera and I are available to take new family photos of you and Miley and Ti on Sunday.;)
By the way, where are you getting him from? Somewhere in Vermont?

Good luck SAS, I hope everything works out well :) I'm sure Miley will *love* whoever ends up in your home.

I have a feeling that any new kitty I bring in will set Miley into a spin! Shje is not like Grammy was, welcoming everyone and everything with open arms (mouth)....hehehehehehe! I hope now that she is older and a bit lonely that the "hot spot" thing will not happen again. I am getting tired of being groomed all the time and hope that Miley takes it to the cat world as soon as a friend for her arrives. I really think she enjoyed having Doogle the dog around during the loss of Graemer and now she has NO distractions/playmates.

Bengals are very much like Abys, a bit bigger and slighty smarter, I think, but each kitty comes with its own little personality, predispostion, genes etc. Hopefully the introduction, no matter when or how, will run smoothly. They usually do, here at Camp Vermont!

Zoe, I do have a camera ready to roll. I will PM you about Sunday though, depending on when and if Ti is ready for a transfer of homes!

I am getting excited now. Even if Ti ends up not coming to me, another Bengal kitty will be ready in a couple of weeks. Did I mention this in an earlier post?

I have missed posting very much and often here these past few weeks. I just got so darn tired of posting depressing, horrible topics and comments. Now that there is excitement on the horizon, my spirit has returned! Yea!

Love,
Sas and her brat!

still hanging in here, waiting to hear the news (good I hope) about the bengal.And concerning the new aby, even though I like to go to the shelter and pick out a homeless waif, I'd sure love the chance to pick out a new kitten. Sounds like an awfully hard task (which one? which one?)

The cat is gorgeous! I like Ti and I hope it works well for you both (and him too :) )
I like the name Tiberius and the short name Ti is also very nice.
Good luck!

I am so happy for you. I have been thinking about you and Miley and wondering if you would be getting her a new friend. Ti is such a handsome little guy. I hope you get him this weekend. I will be waiting for pictures.

The best of luck,

Jen, I really considered a shelter first. And have been looking too. I need a high energy cat for Miley and there is no history for the shelter cats, for the most part. I am not hooked on breeders for any other reason than to have them select the kitten for me. I know that sounds silly, but they are the ones watching these guys and gals grown, interact, eat, sleep, fight etc. so I trust their judgement. I just want a sweet kitten, not one that is king of the hill or dominant. It may be that I end up with a female. Any color for sure!

Also, since this Aby kitten will be given to me (replacing Graemer), I don't expect one that is Show quality....I just want a pet....

As I mentioned, if I sense that Miley and Ti are enough for this house, then I will not take the Aby kitten. (Right Sas, who wouldn't take an Aby kitten...who are you fooling?)...

Oh my, I had better get ready for work!

Catch you guys later!

Love,
SAS and her brat
;)

PLEASE don't think I was "scolding" you for not going to a shelter (darn, I knew it could be read wrong) I just mean I've never had the joy of picking out a kitten, a new "fresh" life, one not "tainted" by the sometimes cruel society. Oh yeah, also, you aren't kidding me....you'll get that aby....hee hee

I am getting tired of being groomed all the time.

I laughed out loud at this line Sallyanne and it made me so happy to see the old SAS humor returning!! I know the excitement that you must be feeling now, with a new kitty on the horizon.

As I mentioned, if I sense that Miley and Ti are enough for this house, then I will not take the Aby kitten. (Right Sas, who wouldn't take an Aby kitten...who are you fooling?)...

Another great line! hehe! I don't think you will have a prayer of walking away from an Aby kitten. Oh my, I think I am getting as excited as you are! Can't wait for the weekend! ;)

Jen, I didn't take it as a scolding, honestly. I always feel guilty when there are so many kittens needing good homes....and I have had shelter kitties with no problems. Its like buying a certain car, or having your hair cut a certain way, etc. you get to select a kitten/cat from any source. So, lately, I have wanted cats from breeders - I think I have a guility concenience. One of the problems I have with people in general, is not knowing what they want in a cat. I do know what I want. I think that is why I volunteer at a shelter to try to payback society for having NOT shopped at a shelter for a kitty kat!

Anway, no offense taken, really!

I think for those of you who have 12,000 cats - well, I just couldn't do it, but I admire you and all the time, energy and money you bring to the effort! Yikes. Too bad there aren't more people out there like you!

Love,
Sas and her brat:D
