Hi, wow you have a fur posse of 7. Are they all indoor cats? My 3 are all indoor. It's not that myfriend didn't want them after getting them adopted & declawed. Her mother had a stroke & she had to go to be with her.Her mom lives in N>C. And she has no idea how long she'll be gone. I think she may adopt a couple when she comes back,
My 3 are Cheyenne 13 years old,female gray/blavk/white tabby. Levi 9 month old male tabby cream/white.Then Maverick 13 months male,tabby orange & white. What kind do you have? Mine are also short hair.When I was looking, I was thinkung about a Russian Blue they are so beatiful My shelter had one, but he was a older male.And I had found nother one but he wasn't what you called friendly.
I am now in the process of introducing the little ones to the "Queen". Cheyenne has been the only cat for 11 years. Where in Ohio are you located?.

Yep, 7 alright and they're all indoor. Perfect world: I'd let them roam but too many bad things happen to cats and several of mine are special needs. I have one in advanced chronic renal failure, one in early renal failure, one that is deaf, partially blind and has cerebellar hypoplasia and another one w/a slight case of it and one who has had challenges w/an ear polyp that ran amuck. I had 8 when I first joined PT but my tuxie Peeka went to the Rainbow Bridge 3 years ago. There are several here on PT who have more cats than I do, so 7 is no big deal to them. Boo is my blackie, Coco Puff is a seal point Siamese, Puddy is a calico, Creamsicle is an orangie, Pigeon is a Maine Coone/tortie mix and so is Specs and Yodie is a tortie as well. Three of my cats, Boo, Pidge and Puddy are seniors ranging in age from 14 to 18 1/2. The rest are younguns.

I'm glad to hear that your friend didn't just discard the cats. She has to take care of her mom, that's for sure. Good thing that you were there to give them a good, permanent home. We'd love to see some pix when you're able.

I'm located equidistant to Akron and Canton. Where are you?
