New Zoe Album

[lvpets2002]

Awee Zoe is so Beautifull.. Huggss baby girl..

[Catty1]

Well, Cole is thriving on more attention - and now Zoe is doing the 'little chase' with him. Not playing yet - she chases AT him and stops several inches away. And he stares at her. lol

She was playing with a toy in the living room yesterday while Cole watched. A little later Cole was rabbit-kicking the same toy (I don't think he's ever played with it!), while staring at Zoe, who was looking back at him.

Just a matter of time...

As for Oscar, see attached pic!

How's THIS for a coincidence - my mom bought a new litter box for her cat and will be getting rid of the old hooded one. She wants me to take it for recycling as their bins aren't big enough for it.

Ummm...could I give it a good soaking in bleach and wash it and use it for...oh...an extra cat....????

She's lovely, Candace. Her markings are gorgeous. Thanks so much for sharing her with us

Sounds like you already know what this is for!...

If I poured about 1/2" of bleach in the bottom after washing it, left it for 1/2 hour, then washed the whole thing again(with bleach in the water) - would that be clean enough?

I'm sure it would be. I didn't know that your mom got a cat. How long has she had him/her? I think that Zoe has already claimed your home as hers and Oscar seems to really enjoy her company. It's great to hear how Cole is now starting to warm up to her too. She must be irresistable. I hope that everything works out in the end. Good luck.

Tracey, my family has always had cats - two of them. The last cat my mom had was the old family Siamese, who lived to 19 1/2. We hoped he would go in his sleep, but the poor guy just got worse and worse and the vet had to send him to the Bridge.

When my sister died in 2006, my mom took in her two lilac points, Pyka and Shiney. She adored them! Sadly, Pyka got nasal cancer which the regular vet didn't pick up - Mom had to ask for a referral. Although he had surgery, the results came back that it was malignant and that they couldn't get it all. Mom syringe fed him for weeks and weeks...he was happy to have him feed her but he wasn't improving at all.

Rather than wait for the cancer to return, Mom (and I) made the very very hard decision to send Pyka to the Bridge in 2007.


Shiney remains a spoiled only cat.

I sent the volunteer coordinator a link to Zoe's album on FB. Here is her reply:

Hi Candace,

Great pictures and it looks like she is getting along with your cat which is great!

Adoption fee for Zoe is $125 as she is a senior. You made me laugh by asking, let me know if you need anything from us and I will be in touch about bringing her back to shelter when I know anything, although it seems like you might not be in a rush to do that

Thanks so much!

Not in a rush? WHATEVER gave her THAT idea?

The one main situation....my boys are on weight management food. Oscar is really bad for gorging on Zoe's dinner! I guess supervised meal times are the only way to go if Zoe joins the family.

Prayers that I get the extra $ to adopt her...because I volunteer there, maybe they will do a payment plan.

Three cats - am I nuts? (no comments from all the multi-cat families here!)
