    I haven't followed the story on Minnie. How long have you had her?

    Either way, that is a big step! I have known many people who work with ferals and they can easily take up to a year before any 'real' progress can be made.

    Woohoo!

    Don't be afraid that your life will end. Be afraid that it will never begin.

    You only say that cause you have some crazy love affair with Tenny, who can't WAIT for Spring to "Roll Out" his new name.....

    that is correct. You can always pick out your true love, even in a sea of black and white

    RB,
    Some one far greater than I will have to 'link' you to Minnie's story. But, in short, I have had her since July. She had been in a shelter since April. She was part of a TNR program and determined to be not feral enough to have survived. She lived in my basement from July to October when, for reasons untold, she appeared under my bed! I can now pet her, she purrs for me, I cry for her, she does elevator butt, and has played with a string once or twice. She will eat with me in the room, but not really in her sight. I haven't yet seen her walk upright...but, I am waiting. She is totally beautiful...with a little goatee mark, and an ear that was dipped in milk. She looks like Tenny, a little bit, but more mushed in nose. Her markings aren't as defined as my other tuxies...she is more 'runny'. She is very little.....so much for short, eh?

    Way to go Minnie!! I predict that by the end of this year, she'll be sleeping with you on the bed and hopefully hanging out with the rest of your herd.

    ROTFLOLWP (wp=wetting pants) laughing about Shamu I and Shamu II!!! That's actually one of my daughter's nicknames for me ! I was also in hysterics about the Festa Del Catnip going on in your room all night - very descriptive, I could imagine all of that and then some.

    I'm also glad to hear that Minnie is making progress - she'll come out of her shell eventually, in such a happy, cat-filled household. You have the patience and love to coach her slowly.

    Now I know you can afford a digital camera, so we impatient Pet Talkers can get instant fixes of tuxes! Otherwise I'll start a collection for you, like I was going to do for Jen to get her a scanner ...........
    The legend says that Mohammed adored cats. When one of them was sleeping on his sleeve and he had to go out, Mohammed supposedly cut off the sleeve so as not to disturb his pet.

    Great great story Johanna!!
    And I am so glad that Minnie is slowing coming around, how precious!!

    Kylie is kinda like a beached whale but not a killer one, make sense? But she doesn't get excited over catnip.

    I was thinking not so long ago about Minnie. I guess, it was time for another step and she did it
