Claudia is a snowshoe mix, but she does resemble a ragdoll a little bit - her hair is medium-length.

We love her to pieces, that's for sure.

Cute kitties! Claudia is my favorite, I love blue eyed kitties.

I already volunteered a while ago to make you a sig but you never sent me the pics. If you want someone else to do it that is fine.

What wonderful pictures, they look so happy and loved. It gives me such a warm glow when I see how happy some cats are in their homes and how well looked after they are. That's how it is supposed to be, and I wish every cat could have that. Maybe some day all the cats in the world will

I love seeing cats and dogs in loving homes too. There is one beautiful kitty still at the shelter where we adopted Vincent & Mikey from that I would love to see get a home as loving and cat-friendly as ours - he almost came home with us too, but we didn't want to have 6 cats (not that 5 is that much different, but vet bill-wise, it does add up!). Anyway, I'm constantly keeping tabs on him to see that he eventually gets a good home. They're very choosy at that shelter, so I can feel good about that.

We're glad we adopted 2 at a time, though, b/c Vincent & Mikey, though they weren't in the shelter at the same time as each other for more than a couple of days, came into our house as buddies already, which helps them when going against our other 3. It has been 5 weeks since we adopted them, and we have tried the Feliway diffuser too - we're not sure if that's what is helping mellow Bailey, Leila and Claudia out, or if it's just time and acceptance of the new guys. Anyway, Bailey & Claudia are doing pretty well with Vincent & Claudia, except for when they get too playful with them/startle them, but Leila is back and forth between nonchalant/unaffected and vicious. She's the aggressive one with the others too, though, so she's always been that way. It's definitely not a process for those without patience, but we think that the older 3 are slowly coming to accept the other 2, getting closer and closer to them without the hissing/growling and even playing sometimes.
