Now, now

My orangie female, Goldie, was the sweetest, most loving cat ever. When she died I went looking for another orange female and that is when I discovered how rare she was. I'd get another orange female in a heartbeat if I could find one when I wanted to add to my brood.

For now, having one goofy orange male is enough He balances out Mitzi's moodiness.

My Scout is a female orange tabby. She's the only one in my group of 5 who doesn't get along well with the others. She doesn't like for the younger cats to bother or touch her and she hates my oldest cat, Ripley, with a passion. She is constantly fighting with Jazz for the Queen Bee spot but Jazz is bigger and a little older and always wins.

On the other hand I have to say Scout it my special kitty. I knew it when I saw her at the shelter. She had been abused by some boys and had really had a hard life. That might explain some of her issues. Anyway, she is a total sweetheart to me, loves to sleep with me everynight and has really bonded with me.

Out of all 5 of my cats she is the only truly social one with people and doesn't hide when we have company. She obviously prefers people to cats - very surprising knowing that people had abused her.

I have an orange and white female by the name of Brianna. Or Brianna banana bread..or my sweet potato pie with marshmellows. She is a major jokester. She loves nothing better than to hide behind something such as a blanket or a door and then leap out and startling the other cats walking by. she loves to be brushed and scratched and petted as long as you don't touch her tail or legs. Those will earn you a hiss and swat. She is a goof but not much of a lap cat or a cuddler. She will sleep with me some nights but that is as much snuggling as she will do.

organge girlies are hardtocome by, and the one i nticed at the pet shop was quickly snapped up. i ahve never had an orange cat, but apparently the easist to train,a nd black ones are the hardest.

Out of my guys, my orangies are the most laid back of the group. If I bring in a foster, I know I can count on the boys to be sweet and welcoming to the newcomer.

I never picked any of them.... they all just came here. My orange and white boy, Harry, was adopted and the adoption fell through (he was a foster that never left) and one day I went to take him to an adoption event and hubby told me that Harry was not going anywhere. He could have knocked me over with a feather with that statement! Harry is most definately hubby's boy.

Allen is my first cat, the King of the house. He's a huge 20 pounder and very much a sweetheart.

Pouncer is my silly, naughty boy, who's always getting into trouble and constantly at the vet because of something or other he got into he's a brown tabby. My girls are also brown tabbies.... and just as bad. I LOVE "nawtee" kitties!

But basically, all 5 chose us. We didn't pick them. I wouldn't trade any of them in for the world (though I pretend ot offer Harry back to the rescue just to see hubby's panicked look! )

Oliver was always very laid back as well. The big ol' rottweiler didn't bother him a bit. Neither did the rat or hamsters.

Heh, that sounds kind of like what happened with Soni! We got him all cleaned up and I offered to find a home for him and my husband was all, "Nuh uh. That cat isn't going any place."

First kitty ever? What was that like for ya?

Our situations keep sounding alike! Somebody that we live with was careless enough to leave the door open (while husband was at work and I was asleep) and Soni got out. Well, I couldn't find him all day and then his dad came home and told me that Soni was outside and so he brought him inside (He had just walked in the door with Soni in his hands). Well, we might have to take Soni to the vet because this is Day Two of treating his foot wound with hydrogen peroxide, antibiotic ointment, and gauze. It doesn't look like it's improving... He's VERY nawtee, probably got into a fight with one of the outside cats.

don't even get me started on Isis. She's just the worst of 'em all.

I've noticed that they are hard to come by but that's not necessarily a deciding factor for me anyways. I was just joking about "completing our kitty colour spectrum". I can imagine that she was!

Our orange boy Leo is just the sweetest, cuddliest boy. He loves to snuggle up to us all the time, and he lives for belly rubs. He's very funny and boisterous at times, and can be talkative, greeting us at the door most days when we come home from work with a funny sounding meow. The other orange cats we've come across at shelters seem very sweet every time. Leo was the sweetest we've ever met, though, coming to meet us while he was up for adoption and hopping on our laps right away.

Good luck, but remember, the cats kind of do "choose" you. That's been our experience.

Aw, he sounds like a very darling boy! He reminds me of Soni!

That would be our experience if there were more than one kitty involved in any of the situations! Tier was given to us by a coworker of Troy's and she felt bad because not only did she not have the time she felt he needed but he had to stay in her room because of other pets and he was VERY small. Soni just showed up, three weeks to the day after we had to have Tier PTS, on my birthday last year and he has been with us ever since. After Tier passed, but before we got Soni, another lady who worked with Troy told us that one of her females (a Siamese) had gotten pregnant by one of her males (a Ragdoll). We agreed to take in a female kitten. She did have a rather large litter but all but two of the girls were spoken for. When we went to pick her up, Troy held out Isis (was called Fruit Loop by the wench room mate of the lady) and her available sister. The sister just kind of sat there and wasn't very attentive while Isis just stared at me with her eyes. I think that's pretty much what got me. I grabbed her up, sat on the couch, and she promptly fell asleep! Been a mama's girl ever since. Pics:

I have only one picture of Isis and neither a scanner nor a picture disk. I must remember to get a camera soon!

Aw, well THANK YOU for adopting her. Sounds like she really needed a good home and she got one! =D Her being a people cat IS really weird all things considered! But she sounds like a sweetheart anyways!

Isis doesn't like anyone except Soni and me. At night, when everyone is asleep, that is when she decides she likes my husband and cuddles with him(though neither of them will ever admit it, I shall obtain photographic evidence one day!)!

Heh, sounds like our boy, Soni, balancing out our moody little Siamese girl!
