2 more cats

[Randi]

Congratulations on your newest additions! I can't wait to see pics - and I love their names!

toughCookie and all the others with multi-cat households.. I'm glad that there are people like you who don't hesitate to give all these kitties a new home!

That's wonderful news about the two, keep us updated! About the litterbox problems.. Maybe she wasn't happy in her last home. Hope she's alright now!

Yeah! Two more cats! I love them sooo much already, and haven't even seen their pictures (like that would matter, huh?). I know they will be very happy with you. Seven is a nice number..but it isn't very round, is it? Maybe 8 would be better?

As to the renter situation- I hated that so much. People would rent to irresponsible children, those with fifty kids, two dogs..but the second I mentioned a cat...it was bad news. I never understood that. If I owned rental property, I would rent to all of you, at a discounted price, of course, and let you have tons of cats! Hmmm...I might now understand why I wouldn't be a very good landlady...

Congrats on two more!

Oh TC - TWO new furkids - how lovely! And one a Meezer! So Yeah you must be totally insane!!! Hmph!
I'm so jealous!! Hope they both settle in soon.

if you ever acquire any property, please let me know!!

looking at Angel more, I am not sure if she is a seal point, I still don't know much about cat breeds, but thats what they said she was...I am pretty sure that she does have some siamese in her, but is she seal point? what is that exactly anyway??

also. they said she is 3 years old, but she looks to me to be about 7 or 8 months old... in size anyway...?
the humane society called about an hour ago, Gypsy had her surgery and can be picked up around 4... , she doing well.
so far, still no litter box problems with Angel...here's hoping there won't be!

I am not sure if I should keep Gypsy in my room, they said she should not do any jumping, so maybe I should put her in the bathroom and Angel in my room?? of course then Gypsy could still jump from the counter and back...and I don't want Angel messing in my room
well I will see what happens, I know for the rest of today Gypsy will probably just want to sleep anyway, right? this is the first cat that I have had that will be recovering from being spayed...I need to fix up a nice soft comfy bed for her..
guess I have droned on enough.. I am excited, but thinking about the cats at the hermitage, I should have adopted Tripod. Izzy is 15, and I would hate to move her from where shes familiar..
but no, round number or not, there will be no 8th cat!

I know others with mor knowledge than I will chime in with the explanation of 'seal pointe'. I know it is some sort of markings at least on their ears, which is darker then the body coat. But, let's let a real meezer chime in...

As to the age...you can tell by the teeth if she is younger or older...a younger kitty will first have baby teeth..very sharp and pointy (ouch), but I think by 7-8 months adult teeth might be in already. If they are, they will still be (usually) whiter and cleaner than a 3 year olds....

Then, finally, I think it is a good idea to keep a cat that has had surgery away from all other animals for at least 24 hours. They are still recovering, and don't need the stress of other cats. They will jump, and not appreciate their limitations at first- so, the smaller the area, and less temptation, the better.

I have forgotten why you aren't keeping these two kitties together...and why do you think Angel will mess? I can't remember if she had this problem with her other owner???

Good luck!

[toughCookie]

I am keeping the 2 new cats separate from each other, because I am not sure of their health yet , so until I know I am not going to let one make the other sick, and yes Angel was owner released,(thats the term used by the humane society) because of litterbox problems...? so far with me she's ok.
yes Gypsy will need time to heal, and quiet time, by herself,
thats why I think I will move Angel to my room and put Gypsy in the bathroom, less things to tempt her to explore etc...
Angel does have the dark ears, and tail, so that does sound right then, I guess she is a seal point. her body is white and pale tan.
she has blue eyes. shes beautiful! she's sleeping now, they all are. its nice and quiet!

My dearest Aunty ToughCookie, I thought I was your most beloved seal point Siamese in the whole universe. Boo hoo, waaaaaaaa. I must go back on my hunger strike immediately!

And if I have the strength to type again, I must communicate with your Angel and tell her to fully educate you in the true privilege of owning such royal blood. Hrumphhhh! We seal points are the darkest of the royal cats of ancient Siam. If you must, please investigate the Internet Siamese Cat Club www.meezer.com they truly appreciate what individual, articulate, loving, inbred weirdos we are. (weirdo is a flattering term right, my mum uses it on me all the time, it must be good ...)

There is nothing I can do except throw myself off the nearest scratching post, wrooooooooooorrrrrr

Miss Meow-
That is one gorgeous seal pointe...what a beauty!

[AmberLee]

TC,

I missed your post earlier. Wow, I'm stunned and excited. Really looking forward to seeing your new babies, too. Congratulations. How are the rest of the kids taking the new smells and sense of excitement?

curious, they are very curious. Angel slipped out of the bathroom last night before I could catch her, and ran a little ways, but then she saw the other cats, and froze! no puffy fur or tails, no hissing, she just stopped. and the others all scattered when they saw her. I got her before she had any contact with any of them.
Gypsy is here now, in the carrier still, in my room, but soon I am going to put her in the bathroom, and Angel in my room. I will have pics tonight.

my dear Mini...first I have to say that you are so beautiful! and oh when you called me aunty tc, you melted my heart, I am such a sucker for being called aunty!!
but you made me feel bad... don't you know that you are my first siamese love?? that will never change sweetie! I had to get a cat somewhat like you because of your beauty!
so don't go running to your scratching post, unless of course you are playing!
and promise your aunt tc that you will be a good girl and eat!!

[Miss Meow]

OK, Aunty TC, I'll step gracefully from the top of the scratching post. I may or may not eat, but I promise to sniff around the food bowl so mummy sees I'm at least thinking of eating.

PS I'm a boy but that's OK as long as you still have space in your heart for me. I hope Miss Angel is a talkative Siamese, you are going to have so much fun learning our language. We talk best at 5 in the morning!

[toughCookie]

Dear, sweet Mini

it is shameful of your aunty tc to have made such a mistake!
I am so sorry to have called you a girl!! you are a handsome, hunk of a cat! all boy! and a good boy I bet too huh, but what is this I hear, you wake your mommy up at 5 am? well you are hungry and just have so much to say, right? I have so many cats, I can't keep them straight, so forgive me for calling you a GIRL.. EW!! LOL

yes I still have a big place in my heart for you little boy, excuse me, you are a BIG boy

[krazyaboutkatz]

Mary, congrats on the two new additions to your cat family. I can't wait to see their pictures. I also love their names. I hope that everything works out and that they get along with your other cats. Good luck.
