Oh dear, aren't they cute! And the second one looks exactly like Casper!
And btw, I want them all too!!!! :D :D :D :D
Well ANY of you Pet Talkers are welcome at our shelter any day! Be warned, I'll make ya leave with more than ya came in for :D
Tonya you need to take a road trip. I think Sophie girl wants a feline friend!
AAAWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!
I want them all!
I could never work at an animal shelter. I would have to bring 9/10 of the furry devils home with me each day. It would break my heart day in and day out to see so many without a home. I can't even go to PetsMart because my heart breaks when I see the pets on display, even though I know they have a good chance for adoption being there. Really, just yesterday I drove past PetsMart and couldn't stop. Didn't want the heart ache. Can you imagine if I worked with CHILDREN TOO! I am never tempted to take a lawyer home....that's who/what I work with each day. LOL!;)

And I'm never tempted to take one home... *giggles*
Actually... I work at a law school..... which is worse, I gather... because it's the breeding ground... :p :D ;)
Yes, its very hard. But the satisfaction at watching them go to wonderful homes makes it all worth it. I am lucky that my shelter is very clean and loving for the animals. We spoil them. And we don't euthanize. That makes me be able to handle it. I love watching the transformation from scared, sick dog or cat to friendly, loving kissy lap kitty or dog.
And I can never resist taking them home either, which is why there is an extra poodle in the house right now!! :D
Aw Zippy aren't they too cute for words - and if the second one down is Casper - well he's a twin to Bagel!!:D
I admire anyone who works in a rescue centre - great job.:) :) :)
Lynne
....oh forgot - what do btw and lmao mean? :o :eek: :confused:
Lynne
here are a few acronyms often used on the internet (some used on PT regularly, some not):
btw -- by the way
imho -- in my humble opinion
lmao -- laughing my a** off
rotfl -- rolling on the floor laughing
ttfn -- ta-ta for now
There are bunches more, but I'm drawing a blank for now ...
AmberLee thanks for the translations! My son tells me that when you are IMing someone and you have to leave for a minute you say "BRB" (be right back). I feel like a dinosaur with all of this new stuff!
They are sooo cute!!! I wish I could have more!!! My next kitty is definitly going to be a Ritz or a Casper!! ;)

They are sooooooooo cute!........I don't think it's just Sophie....:D :p ;) :D :p ;)
Zippy the pictiures brought back so many memories for me as I used to have a cat called Gizzy who looked just like the black and white cat.
Here's another one of my favorites at the shelter. Little scared to death Daisy.

Oooooh, she is so sweet. She looks like a dilute calico. Is she? Do you know how old she is?
What beautiful furkids, especially the brown and white one, In fact. the 2nd kitty looks like Jumper, except for larger ears because of his Abyssinian breed.
Speaking of Jumper, I am now noticing that his coat, although appearing black is actually a dark chocolate brown. Much of his coat ticking is brown but then turns black as it grows outward. As he is now getting older (7 months), he is looking more like an Abyssinian kitten.

Daisy is 4 months old. I don't know her history but she is scared to death of everything!!!! She'll hiss and hiss when you go near her. But I picked her up the first time anyway, even though I wasn't sure if she'd claw my eyes out. She just sat in my arms and shook. I make a point of going to see her about 10 times a day so hopefully soon she'll be less afraid of people.
Oh, Aly...these pics are breaking my heart...they're all so precious..I love the little orange guy(I have two and love them to pieces!!). I love the black ones too. When I went for my first kitty, Sydney, I wanted a black one, but there were none. Sydney was all white (and he was the one who clung to me), so I figured he was the one. He was a wonderful kitty!
I'm getting the itch like I want another, and I'd love a little girl kitty this time. Daisy is gorgeous, and that's exactly what I'd name a girl kitty if I were to get one...Daisy. Beautiful name.
But alas, I must admit that I live in an apartment and, financially I don't think I could handle another, so I can't do it right now. One can dream...
When we have the chance, I'd love to tell you about Elvis' transformation over the months that he has been with me. You mentioned that you love these stories. (Maybe I'll see you in Dallas?) Elvis is SUCH a different cat today...he surprises me every day with his progress.
I hope that soon these darlings at your shelter find a home where they receive the love and respect that they deserve. For the time being, they have you to care for them, and I'm sure that they appreciate all that you do for them. :) :) :)
Casper here...Go for the black one :D :D :D :D :D :DQuote:

BUT, I do happen to like Ritz, she's very beautiful and mommy told me she's a fine feline :)
THANKS
AmberLee - for the acronym list - very welcome it is - makes reading messages soooooo much easier :D
Pam - so pleased there are more people like me who come from the dark ages!! :D
Gepansy - that is the cutest - err - gerbil? hamster? running his little legs off under your name - is that Oreo? :D
Lynne
Thelma, I'll be in Dallas for sure!! Can't wait to swap stories in person with you :)
Casper,
Noah here, hey! Don't be giving my mommy any more ideas on getting more kitties!! Well...unless YOU could come live with us, then we could out number the girl kitties!!!! Yea!?;)
Noah, I'd love to out do the girl kitties, sometimes I hate it when Kitty plays cute and mommy and daddy go all 'uh ah oh' with her... but I can do it too though :D
I think mommy wants to have more cats (OH NOOOOOO) and she especially wants to have an orange tabby... Hmmm... I have to wonder where did she get this idea?
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
You're too handsome Noah, way too handsome ;) Mommy always drools after your pics!
