still looking for my orangie!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

He's adorable! I hope everything works out with him....but....if it doesn't.....have you seen Jen's post about her new kittens in Cat Rescue? PA isn't that far from OH - actually it's quite close...and I think you NEED Snagglepuss!!!

He sure is a cutie pie. I hope that everything works out and you'll be able to adopt him. Please keep us updated.
My Sunny is an Aby mix and has an "M " on his forehead too. He also has the best personality.

I keep my fingers crossed for your sweet Orangie...
if it shouldn't work out, how about coming over here and getting my sponsor cat Ricky (over here you can sponsor the cat monthly to provide his care at a shelter)?!
He's at the shelter for three years and unfortunately he's one of the unadoptables, because if he doesn't want to be cuddled he might nip...
Unfortunately I cannot take him as Nellie isn't too fond of company...
But wouldn't a vacation over here be nice and you could even leave with an Orangie in your arms?!

Ricky and Sammy are great. I hope both find a good home -wherever it will be

I got an e-mail first thing this morning and Sammy has already been adopted. He was quite old and I *think* the foster mom decided to keep him. I will keep looking and my orangie will find me. I check Petsmart often enough to know he was not there and the girl I know who works there never saw him. Plus he was newly listed, etc. Oh well... Yes I saw little Snagglepuss but it is across the state and against their rules and I really want an older cat that is harder to place and already declawed because my two are declawed already. If they fought, it would not be fair and there is no way I could bring a kitty in for declawing. (but we are not going THERE!!!) Thank you everyone for your well wishes! ARRGHHH!!

Well, there HAVE been exceptions

But I admire your wanting to adopt an older animal. They are MUCH harder to place.

I would like to add, though, that I have had clawed and declawed kitties living together (not now, but years ago) and the clawed cat NEVER hurt the others. As a matter of fact, she took the brunt of most of their hits. So it is personality that matters more than anything.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Sorry to hear Snagglepuss isn't an option, but I'm sure he'll find a furrever home real soon since he's just adorable! And I admire you, too, for wanting an older cat. So many people won't even consider an older cat so I'm sure your search won't take long at all.

I agree with Jen on the claw thing too. Eddie (Edwina's nemisis) has claws but I physically had to check because he never used them once on me - even when I tried to give him a mini bath to make him somewhat respectable when he was to meet his prospective new owners (Edwina's Secretary and her husband). And as far as I know, with all the grief Edwina has given him, only once or twice has she showed up with scratches from him. So it's definitely the personality of the cat, not the size, gender or whether they have claws or not. And this is provided only for information purposes - not to be a lecture or anything.

Good luck in your search, and please keep us updated. Can't wait to see pics of who you finally get.

Sorry you didn't get to adopt Sammy. And good for you for wanting to adopt an older cat! I'm betting your orangie will come around very soon.
