Amber, long haired orange female with the amber eyes. Daddy's girl!

Ashley, calico that looks like Lut's Maya. a clown and acrobat.

Biddy, black tuxedo male. VERY sweet former stray.

Calvin the Norwegian forest cat who does not like to be picked up or held. But petting, he adores.

Fern, shy orange and white female who took years to warm up to us, but was worth every second.

Jasper, black long hair male. a very gentle soul. long and lean,

Jim long hair male with a smudge on his nose. lap fungus/purr machine extrordinaire.

Kim.....biggest little begger in the East.

Lucas, orange male with tuxedo like markings. He's been with me the longest of those with me now. Seems hard to believe, I remember so well when he was the baby. loves his game of chase at bedtime.

Monte. all white male Mama's boy. Throws up a lot, but we are working on that. This is my soul cat. Must be carried around on my shoulder.

Rutherford, blue and white longhair, who was downright bald when I adopted him. Sweetest and best behaved fellow.

Sterling, silver tabby male who EATS things. softest fur I've ever felt.

Willow, tabby and white male. SHy, a real no-see-um. (for company) but loves his pet-time, especially right before bed.

She is the Girl of the house. Talks ALOT.. currently has a bald spot on tip of tail from over grooming herself (a girl's gotta look good!)
Opens ANY kind of door around. Likes to but heads.
3 yrs old. Birthday is August 14th. Rescued from husband's parents after they adopted her from the pound then decided they didn't want pets.

Mozart:

Mommies boy! The curious one of the family. If there's running water , he's there to see how it works. Likes to watch bubble baths, but not get them. Barely meows, more like a whisper meow. Definetely Mommies boy all the way.
Will be 3 on March 14th adopted from Petsmart adoption center in league with a cat rescue program.

Bach:

daddies baby! The clown of the bunch.Tolerates mommy unless wanting to play... Sleeps more than any of them, and trys to be just like "daddy".. from snoring, to sneezing to whatever. Known to make a sound that sounds like "YUM YUM YUM" when eating canned food.
The baby of the family.. Just turned 2 in November. Thanksgiving baby. Adopted from my dad's rescued cats litter.

Katie is a female tabby and turned 11 years old on Feb. 12,2003.
She is a real talker and just loves her mommy so much that she has to be in the same room with me all the time. In fact, as of now she is in her usual place when I am on the computer. Right behind me in the chair, so she has me literally sitting on the edge of my seat.

Mookie is a male main coon tabby/mix who turned 7 months old on Feb. 24, 2003. He is always getting into trouble as he is so full of vim and vigor. He just loves to run, as I call it blind, around the house, jumping on this and that and knocking over anything that is in his way. Needless to say I have learnt to kitty proof my house. He is a real daddy's boy.

Noah used to do this until I changed his food to a mix of Indoor and Special (special for their tummies) Royal Canin cat food. Its worth a try.

[Sara luvs her Tinky]

This is Tinky... she is my baby!



I love her so much. Tinky is year old and a half years old. I got her for Christmas of 2001. I wanted a kitten soooo bad and Eric adopted Tinky from the pound. She is the cuddliest kitty in the world. She loooves her mommy and has the loudest purr in the whole world.

This is Jupiter.. he is my BIG goofy boy!



I got Jupiter from my sister when he was six months old... He is a year and a half now too. He looooves to play.. with ANYTHING.. but he keeps the excitement coming and us entertained. He is just now starting to like to be petted and will purr a lot more than he used too... I love him so much!!

Jen I noticed your kitties were in alphabetical order!

Trevor - Big orange tabby who was my first cat and convinced me that cats were awesome. Caused me to re-think my "dogs only" frame of mind. Independent and lovable on his terms. Sweet kitty. Unflappable. Goes with the flow.

Andy - Sweet white cuddle boy. Loves to be in my lap. Drools with ecstasy when being petted (for long sessions a towel may be in order ). Looks up to big "bro" Trevor and can often be found grooming him. Very, very affectionate. Tends to be afraid of new people to the house and will go into hiding - also fears someone knocking at the door - more hiding.

Here is Boo.



He is just a little over a year old. He is my first cat and has been an absolute joy. I used to think I didn't like cats, but Boo changed that.

Boo loves to play outside and catch bugs. The birds mainly just laugh at him and his attempts to "talk" to them.

He LOVES fish, sleeping with mommy, shredding paper and women.

He dislikes loud men, fruit and veggies, fans and bugs.

We have:

Mimi, who is 13 years old. She will have another birthday in the middle of June. Mimi joined me as a six week old kitten, when our cat of 7 years, Shrimmp Boat disappeared. She has been here longer than anyone or anything else, including my own "'skin kid". What a wonderful cat, who just goes with the flow. She has tolerated dogs, children and most unwillingly, Butter, our other cat.

Butter is 5-6 years old (estimated). He just showed up a little over two years ago and never left. And when we left, he came with us! I was so amazed that my neighbors never realized that I really did adopt him, have him neutered, feed him, let him sleep in my bed, etc. LOL!! Many of them seemed to be amazed when I said he was going with me, as if he hadn't been my cat for the previous two years!

Sally:
She is a mixture of colors, and is a Tabby Cat. On April 19th, she will be eight years old. Sally loves to relax on the porch in the summer, and run around like mad in the winter. She dislikes anyother cat or animal, especially dogs who use her as furniture!
Her favorite food is tuna, and she also likes ham, turkey, and any other fish. But of course when I'm not around to spoil her silly, she gets kibble. Some man at my dad's work was giving away kittens, and my dad took Sally home. That was on my sister's birthday (although oddly enough, it was not an intentional birthday present for her). I always like to say that she is that cat in the "Peppy Le PU" cartoon, because she has spots of wite on her, and it loks like she got into white paint.
My current favorite pic of her:

[Russian Blue]

Nakita - Russian Blue - Almost 9 months old - NoahsMommy's Basil is Nakita's fur love!

Nakita also goes by the names Warrier Princess, Bat Girl, and Queen of wrapping herself around your finger!

She loves anything furry that moves. She can't get enough attention and if your ignoring her she will come right into your face and get your attention! Who ever said Russian Blue's are shy and quiet?? Not Nakita! She has ultimate Cat-i-Tude! She also doesn't usually meow, but chirps and does these little moans instead.

She has never hissed or scratched. She has her crazy wild kitty moments, but always minds the sensitive skin of humans. Nakita actually purrs when we cut her nails. I think it's because she is getting our undivided attention then!

She's the light and center of this household! How could those emerald eyes have it any other way?

[Christiansmommy]

Dandylion...little white puff of love As sweet natured as she looks...guessing she is about 1 1/2 to 2 years old...hope to maybe get her a brother in the future...

[BastetsMum]

Ok here goes ...

Bastet:

Breeders name: Argyle Princess Bastet DesertSands

Faun Abysinnian

nearly 3 year old on May the 12th.

My first ever Kitty!

I picked a handful of purebred didn't I! Bastet is a bundle of hyperactive love. I am sure she was a human in a past life! She is affectionate, fun loving, and attention seeking.

Her current attention seeking behaviour is:

Rubbing her nose across the bottom of the door so it makes a loud squeaky wet chalk sound.

By the way: Don't EVER use citronella on something that a cat likes to rub against with bare skin. Bastet has a *burnt* nose from me trying to stop her from rubbing her nose across the door. I sprayed the offending door with it and she still did it!!! At least now she has stopped but not after hurting herself (it wasn't serious by the way - she just burnt the top layer of skin - she is fine) and making me completely frantic in the process. Her nose is almost healed now.

Storm - He's my first cat that I've owned by myself. He was around 1 year old when I adopted him from the Humane Society so he's 7 now. His birthday is Jan. 11th which is also his anniversary date too. He's very social and I sometimes call him my gray doggie because he thinks he's a dog or even a person. He's the alpha cat of my multicat household and he acts like the mama cat. He loves to cuddle with me when I'm in bed and has also become a lap cat since his brother Pepper has passed away. I love him very much. Here's a picture of him.


Sunny - He's 2 years old and will be 3 on August 25th. I adopted him from a rescue group called Unconditional Love. He's half aby and half tabby but I think he acts more like an aby. He's very energetic, vocal, and entertaining. He's also very loving and friendly to his mommy but he doesn't like men or most strangers. He likes to sit in my lap and cuddle up with me in bed. He also loves to play and thinks that everything is a toy. He's a big kitten. I love him so much and he's my little ray of sunshine. Here's a picture of him.
