Catfamily (Carla & Mike) have another from me!

[Laura's Babies]

Carla, what TIME can we expect to see pictures of our boys in their new forever home?? I hear they will have 3 stories to run and play in? That's a lot of house!!!

When I had them here, I use to find their water bowl everywhere but I didn't know which one did it. It was always empty, water on the floor and drug in a new direction every day.. I thought it was so funny but the toilet paper thing is even funnier. You going to have to have something to hide that in.

This definately fits the old saying " YOU CAME A LONG WAY BABY!". I promise you that you will fall in love with them BOTH! They have that "Cajun Charm" and are true "Southern Gentlemen".. remember they purr and Meow in Cajun only so they will sound strange at first..

Carla!!!! You haven't even seen her lol! But she is another rescued beauty. Shame on you lol! Laura, you were posting the same time I was LOL! I hear that (I think Louie) has quite the water fetish! He helped Diane at the shelter by trying to do the dishes he really just wanted to play in the water and he does have a way of dragging waterbowls everywhere to the point that they had to put his bowl into an empty litterpan lol! So between the water boy, and the paper freak Carla & Mike are in for some fun, fun, fun! Lucky likes to take the rolls of papertowels, and hug them and kick them before attacking them with his teeth! Batten down the hatches Carla & Mike!

I'm sitting here with my mouth hanging open. I swear my chin is on the floor! I miss a day and a half of PT and look what wonders have happened!!!!!!
I fell madly in love with Madeline when Jan showed her picture. She is BEAUTIFUL!
Of course all hearts went out to Lucky and Louie when we followed their fantastic story. I mean, what is not to love about those two?

Now they are all going to live with a PT family?!!! A wonderful, fantastic, great, and very loving PT home to boot!!!

CONGRATULATIONS EVERYBODY!!! There were so many people involved in the rescue and care of these babies. This is over whelmingly fantastic!

I swear I will be smiling the rest of the day, as soon as I get my mouth shut that is!!

Carla & Mike you are the BEST

Adopting gorgeous Madeline AND precious Lucky & Louie.

I am so happy, I have tears running down my face. How great is that!!! We all prayed the best for these two and our prayers have been answered.

Gentle kisses for sweet Madeline. I hope she has a comfortable night.

I just can't wait to hear how everything turns out with everyone.

Bless you two again. You are truly a Godsend.

Congrats on adopting Madeline!!! She sure is gorgeous. An early congrats on adopting Lucky and Louie too. I'm so glad that they'll be part of the Pet Talk family.

[QueenScoopalot]

I'm im patiently waiting to hear how Lucky & Louie's adoption went! Madeline is so lucky, as are Birdie, Marshall, Tucker, and all the rest of Carla & Mike's wonderful and much loved kitty family! It sure grew in leaps and bounds today LOL!

[catfamily]

I have Lucky and Louie and they are exploring the house.They are the nicest cats.No complaing from them except one of them pooped on the way home.LOL poor guy really had to go.I'm only 15 minutes away too.I'll get pictures tomorrow for you..I'm pooped.These cats are great.And Madeline is in the bathroom resting from surgery but so very sweet she is.L&L are going to have it made here.They gave me 2 big toys that the guy from Ohio donated and I will post them playing with them very soon.Thank you for the toys.L&L will love them.They are so happy and healthy.Really funny running and chasing.They are already comfortable.No hissing or anything from anyone....YET!!!!LOL

[QueenScoopalot]

YAY!!!! So glad they're in a wonderful home now. I'm sure they'll get along fine with all your other kitties, and be prepared for some snuggling from those cajun boys! Have they slowed down long enough for you guys to pat them, or are they having too much fun exploring still?

[Laura's Babies]

OOOOOOooohhhh... My boys are HOME!!! I could just CRY!! I got to go call Kevlin and tell him the good news so SEE YA LATER!!

[leslie]

I too am very happy! And in hindsight, yes the water bowl was always dry! I knew someone was dragging it around because it was never where I left it but I never figured out who exactly was moving it around the bathroom! I filled it twice a day, more on weekends...what a good boy! Demanding fresh water after one drink!!!!
Laura, I think Kevlin and Rhonda will be happy with the new family and I know you are! Whew!!! They made it to a home and they are such loves, I remember at my house, they pushed their way out of the bathroom and made theirselves at home right away! Unfortunately, my Pixie got onto this attitude and would not let them be so comfortable! She stalked them and cornered them every chance she got! (i was pleased when Lucky gave her a cut over her eye- it kept her from stalking the bathroom door after that!) they will be SO happy!

I posted on Louie and Lucky were instint celebrities.I think everything will be fine once they calm down.Right now L&L own the house and everyone in it.Growling and hissing.My cats aren't hissing and just run from them.But it's better than last night.In time it will get better.They love to be patted and picked up but don't like sharing toys and food.I have food dishes all over the kitchen.Water bowls on every floor.But they want it all to themselves.LOL
I have to admit,I'm not use to such wildness in my home.They really are wild cats..but also very lovable in the same breath.
Louie insist on going on the kitchen counters.NONE of my cats go up there.So I'll have to get rid of that habbit VERY soon before everyone copies him.I don't allow any cats on the countertops and I never had any problems with them doing it in the past.Louie is stubborn and doesn't like to be told what to do.He growls at all the cats.They both are.My poor babies.But..It's getting better.We just have to wait and see.I think they'll calm down once they see my cats aren't a threat.They seem to love the house and looking out the windows at all the snow.

[Laura's Babies]

Carla, they were great when I turned them loose in my house, there was no hissing, growling or fighting. Maybe Leslies Pixie got them jumpy so give them a few days. They didn't try to get on my counters either so they may be testing their limits with you.. Just get the squirt bottle handy. They are smart and will learn.

It took Samantha about 3 to 4 months months to realize there was no need to hog the food bowls since she was so malnourished when I got her. Remember, they were thrown out of the house and not fed and it'll take them awhile to get over that fear of going hungry. (It took Samantha awhile as I said).. Give them time and they will blend in, they need getting aquainted time with your other ones... I never did think Samantha would get along with my others but now they tolerate each other and mine like the fact that SHE is the one who signals it is TIME TO EAT!!!

When Samantha would attack one of my other ones, I would scold her and shut her in a room alone for about a hour.. In 3 days she had learned and connected being shut up with fighting and there was no more fighting.. If all else fails, try that.

Thanks for the tips Laura.Is this Haemobartonella passed from cat to cat?Did the vet say anything to you about this?

[leslie]

My understanding is that it is not- I can give you (will give you!) the treating vet's name and number! I will hopefully get to meet you this weekend or the next!
