    Please tell me to stay away from Petfinder...*Update*

    I stay away from Petsmart and any other stores that have those adoption days because I just *know* I would come home with at least one cat. But Petfinder on the other hand is accessible in your home...in your computer 24/7. And every time you turn your computer on it's waiting in the shadows to grab you when you least expect it! Beware.....


    Once again I went to the Petfinder site. I couldn't resist and of course found a kitten I absolutely loved. Of course, I had to send away for info on the little girl.

    I just phoned Rob and told him we may have to make an extra trip this weekend to a certain shelter. Petfinder is evil....they place all these cute faces on the screen and suck you right in....evil I say....EVIL.

    Ok, just received an email back from the rescue and she's available. I'll be hopefully meeting her on Saturday to see what her personality is like. I've never had to introduce two cats before but of course I want what's best for Nakita.

    I'll update you guys after I meet this 'little ball of calico fire'.
    ..................................

    Taken from Petfinder:



    Notes: She is quite the little ball of calico fire! She loves to play with the other cats in her foster home and her foster Mom reports that after she's done playing she'll snuggle up and purr while she looks lovingly into your eyes. What a doll! She was rescued from death row at a local shelter - like so many of our cats - and we want the very best for her! We would like her to be adopted into a home with another kitten or a cat friend. Her foster Mom thinks she's wonderful this is what she had to say:

    "...Sweetest kit you could imagine. She loves to cuddle and purrs like a motor. She has learned what the rattle of a Temptations cat treat bag means, comes running, and will daintily take the treat from your fingers."
    Don't be afraid that your life will end. Be afraid that it will never begin.

    Oh Jeez! I can see how that is hard to resist! I absolutely can not look at petfinder, because I woud run into this very problem.

    Of course, we'll want to hear all about your meeting with the little calico ball of fire! She is precious.

    I used to pine away at all the cats on petfinder too . Now I make life MUCH simpler.......................I just invite them into my home. (it's called fostering )

    She is totally adorable!!!! and not to be a "spoil sport", but with Nakita in the picture, I would be tempted to stay away from the calicos/torties.

    OMG! Lookee at how much she resembles my Little Orphan Annie!


    They both even have the little black marking by their right eye! They could EASILY be sisters!

    I just LOVE little baby kitties!

    The resemblance is quite uncanny, Saopets!
    She seems like such a cutie, Russian. I love Torties, they are just adorable. There are two torties at Clover's foster home, and they are both the sweetest things I have ever known.
    I'm sure that this lil'un will be just as special and loving, and maybe, if that "fireball" part is true, as crazy and playful as Clover and all the other kitties put together!
    cuuuuuutieeee!!!!

    Kass, from my own experience in volunteering, I can tell you that these bugs are ALWAYS cuter and beautiful in reality than they are on the pictures posted on websites

    So....we wait for the news! I am sure Nakita will love having a sister
