    Vinnie

    What a beautiful cat. I thought male calicos were extremely rare and worth a lot of money. I have been told that USC Medical Center in Los Angeles would pay a large sum for a male calico cat.

    Hmmph! If they just want him for his DNA, send them a whisker!

    Vinnie the Kissable Cat

    Vinnie, when I see your beautiful face I long to seize you (gently) and plant kisses all over your plump little cheeks and a couple between your ears and also to kiss your little pawsies. You inspire me to song:

    Vinnie, you are not skinny
    You are a plump and pretty boy
    Who brings his parents joy
    Your fur is long and silky
    Your paws are white as milk-y
    Your eyes are so divine
    You're altogether fine
    I wish you lived next door
    So I could get to know you more!

    Congratulations on being Cat of The Day, you beaautiful thing!

    Amen...surely most of us who love our furrbabies never EVER give such a thought like "they might be worth a lot of $$$" air time!

    Vinny is the baby of a friend of ours...I know how much she loves this boy...money never entered the picture!

    Geez!

    Thanks Smokey!

    Vinnie

    Re Vinnie, I did not mean to sound mercenary. What I meant was when I heard people saying USC Medical Center would pay a lot for a male calico, I thought there were none -- like finding the end of the rainbow. I had a female calico, and I would not have taken anything for her. (She died of old age.) I wouldn't sell my pet, and I hope other pet owners feel the same way.

    Don't sell!

    I missed Vinnie, but I caught this new thread and so I will go back and check him out. But don't sell! I don't know how much they would pay, but, whatever it is, it would not be so valuable as Vinnie's friendship.

    No! No! No! And "no" once again!

    Now I will go log on and see this rare male calico!

    Welcome, Joyce! I too thought that male calicos were sort of like unicorns--very thin on the ground. Hope you have fun with this forum!
