I DID hear back from the breeder this morning!! Marty was just spayed on Tuesday, is still feeling "wimpy" and she is not "sure" she will be able to bring her to this catshow here this weekend..... But, she suggested we meet up with her in April - when she is fairly nearby at another show (Detroit). So Marty is still with her!!

I sent back an e-mail - pretty much pleading for her to bring Marty (since she said not *sure*) - but also agreeing that I would wait and consider the other retiring adult folds she has - I told her exactly what I want - sweet, loving, lapkitty companion, etc - and asked for her suggestion about which cat would be the best match - she already knows about all my cats. Still, I ended by saying I felt like I was already in love with Marty - would take her for a spay follow-up to my vet, etc...a little begging and groveling I wonder if my five cat situation even sounds good to a breeder placing her cats?? I was reading that some will only place cats in certain homes with no more than 2 other cats, no dogs, etc. The woman sounds very nice! She apologized for not responding sooner - having taken off work to do some home remodeling.

Still, sooner or later here, it looks like I WILL be adopting a Scottish Fold like I have been wanting - just not sure who it will be - maybe pretty Marty..I hope so!!

I guess I need to be patient - but I sure do want this kitty
