what was the name of the first cat you ever had??

[catlover4ever]

My first cat was named Sugar. I got her when I was 8. She ended up hating me and would not let me near her. It's funny but at that age I just wanted her with me all the time and I did not understand why she would not want to be with me. Now I look back and think that if I only left her alone when she wanted to be left alone she probally would have been more lovable to me.

Sammy was the first cat I could call all my own. He showed up when I was around 14. He would wait at the bus stop with me every morning and would be waiting at the very same spot each and every afternoon. I lost Sammy to Feline Leukemia. He had such purrsonality, a typical Orangie.

My first cat was an orangie and was called "Twist"!

My sister's boyfriend gave her a black kitten. She was named Tally -- after the boyfriend Talmadge! My sister was in college some distance away so Tally became the family cat.

I brought home a calico named Cleo -- she had high cheek bones and i thought she looked like Cleopatra.

My first cat was Grisette. She looked like a Russian Blue although she had been from a feral litter and Grisette means "little grey one".

the first Cat that my family owned was a Beutiful Black Cat that had white spreckles on his fur! We called him Frsting as it loked as though the Lord had sprinkled him with white frosting. Then there was Missy , George , Lester and Charles. And Sinbad, and Suzie. My first Cat on my own was Pouncer , then Mr. Scrappy. And I miss them all! even though I know that they are waiting for me!In Cat Heaven!

Sable. He was a 7 year old black cat that had been abandoned out in the country. He was kinda like the Tramp. Had a different name at all the houses in the area.. (Blackie, Daddy Cat, Tom Boy, ect.)

When we built our house out there, my parents would find him sleeping on the bags of cement and lumber. Mom, my sisters, and I would feed him hotdogs and when the house was complete, he stuck around, much to dad's chagrin.

He died of cancer at age 15.

My first kitty was Queenie. She loved me more than anyone else, in fact, she disfavored other people! She was a DLH calico. I have one black and white picture of her, drinking from the kitchen sink. I must have been about 14 when she left me.

My parents were given a beautiful calico for their wedding present from my grandfather. She was called Belinda, Lindy for short.

She grew up with me and & my two siblings and enjoyed being an inside/outside kitty to live to an old age. I think she was 18 when she died, she had to be PTS due to kidney problems.

Gosh I hadn't thought about Lindy for ages.

My first kat was Soupy. My grandfather let me pick him out when I was 4.My mom was pregnet and I felt left out. He died on my 16th birthday.Mom didn't tell me tho till the next day.He was my best friend and I think I was his. He was really good at keeping secrets. He was a long haired calico with green eyes. I picked him out of over 100 on my grandpa's farm because of those eyes.

My second cat was also named Puff. I was only 8 years old when I got her from a friend. She was only about 8 weeks old and a DLH orange tabby. She was supposed to be my cat but became more of my Mom's cat. She had 2 litters of all orange kittens and her best friend was our dog Lucky. She passed away when I was away at college and my Mom didn't tell me until later because she didn't want to me to be upset. Here's a picture of her.
