Is there any such thing as a "tortietude"...

[kimlovescats]

OH YES!!!! I had a foster this past year that was quite the hellion!!! She had babies when she came in and after they were gone and she was spayed, she beat the snot out of every cat here! She was great to me, but what a stinker to any other living creature! Her name was Millie, which started as Miss Millie and ended as Mean Millie! I couldn't get her adopted out quickly enough! The level of tension quickly decreased once she was gone! LOL!

Here she is stalking and smacking!

Ok so at least I am being well trained by a professional.....................she has me almost totally housetrained to her every whim.......... will write more but she wants a tummy rub..........

I totally believe it is real. My grandparents had a tortie when I was growing up. They tell so many stories about her! Apparently they left her alone for two days and to show she was mad she made on Grandpa's refrigerator (her main human.) If that's not tortitude, I don't know what is!

On the same thought lines, shaded silver persians are supposed to be the most ethereal of all persians. This is definitely true for Marshmallow.

Hi sweetness! he is spoiled FAT and ruined, he hates everyone but his daddy............so he lives down stairs where he isn't annoyed by us touching HIS hooman! I will post pics of him soon! I have been very ill so the pics are a few months old. He went through his neuter with flying colors. He loves the rescue kitties but bit me very badly, had to PM Jenn over it spent 4 days in hospital but its all good. We will eventually be friends if he gets over the fact that other ppl can touch his hooman.

Sorry Donna didn't mean to hijack this thread.........you can hurt me later......

OH MY GOODNESS! I never saw that behavior while he was here! That's terrible! You had to spend 4 days in the hospital because of his bite??? Maybe he just is one to not do well with too much stimulation. I'm sorry that you've been very ill, hope things are getting better for you, Kym!

THE ULTIMATE IN TORTIETUDE IS POUNCER ROCCALNO , WHO RHYMES WITH TORRNADO. IN ONE WEEK SHE SCRATCHED AND FOUGHT HER RESCUE WITH THREE PEOPLE, ESCAPED FROM HER CAGE AND THHEN ESCAPED THE FOUND ACT PARADISE HOTEL BY DIGGING OUT OF THE BASEMENT.
AND HERE SHES GIVING THE MAUCH BIGGER TUBSTER A PIECE OF HER MIND.
IF THATS NOT TORTIETUDE I DONT KNOW WHAT IS.

[Felicia's Mom]

Felicia is a torbie and she has "tortietude." I could only pet her if she wanted me to. She did not want me to pick her up either.

[DrKym]

i WAS UNTIL NOW A TORTIE NEWBIE............... I AM LEARNING DAILY THAT AS LONG AS I DO NOT USE THE WORD NO..........................................SORRY ALL MUST GO AND SERVE THE DIVA........

[phesina]

Poppy is a tortie who personifies ("felinifies?") the concept of tortitude!

This is the Divine Miss "M", 15 year old Mollie Rose. Queenie to you all!

[DrKym]

TOOOOOOOOO beautiful! kiss our Queenie

[moosmom]

Here is the other tortie, the MAGNIFICENT Lexie Joon!!

[DrKym]

Will post new pics of the MAGNIFICENT Lexie girl! She loves her new dresses and coats!


*hides face while admitting that Lexie now has purple nails*

[jennielynn1970]

I didn't realize Lexie was a tortie... what a cutie pie!!

My Finae is a tortie, but dilute. It doesn't change the attitude much though, lol. She is the queen of the house, and lets all the other cats know who is the boss. Sophie is a calico, and a dilute as well, and she has some tude, but is mostly a sweetie pie and a mush. Not that Finae isn't a mush... she's my girl. Knows when I'm feeling down and blue and is there by my side. Sophie too... They are such good girls.

Glad that Lexie is enjoying her new home so much!! Sounds like she's making sure her new meowmie knows exactly what she expects, lol.

PS.... hope you start feeling better soon Kym!
