I'm adopting a kitten

[lizbud]

Well things are pretty quite so far today, but last night was
a little rocky. Redbud & Mikey came out into the same room with
Joey & were watching him from the stairs. Red is the biggest cat
and has always been very protective of Mikey who was the runt
of their litter. Redbud was in a real snit & was hissing (first time)
and acting very upset. He even hissed & swatted at Smokey
when I was letting Smokey out to the backyard. He's never done
that before. Red even scared Punkin who acted like"what's
wrong with you?". I really believe that Red want's Joey to know
who's boss & he'd better very careful around him. Red & Mikey
who were raised by the feral Momma Kitty are the most cautious
of the cats & Blackie (a real peaceable soul) is just staying back
because they are. Punkin & Joey both had much more experience
with people & other cats before joining the family. They are much
more trusting. When Blackie first came inside to live, Red & Mikey
followed him around relentlessly. They were so fascinated to see
another cat. Now they are the best of friends & Blackie grooms
them all & they him. It will take awhile but I'm sure they will come
to see they have nothing to fear from this little sweetie. I do
promise to take the last three pics on my roll of fim. I'll do it this
afternoon or evening & turn in the roll tomorrow. Should have
the pics for you to see by next week. Thanks for the good
wishs from everyone.

That's a pretty good report Liz for so early on. I am so eager for pictures and glad that your roll is just about finished! I can't wait to see this sweet little boy.

Liz, I am so pleased to read the updates. I'm sure that in time, Joey will fit right in with the whole gang!!

LOL. Yes Jen, I finished off the roll last night. There were only
two pics left instead of the three I thought were on it. Turned
the film in for processing this morning. Guess what. I got more
film. This bunch of pics should should be used up pretty quickly.
Joey might not look too pretty in these pics as his eye has not
returned to normal yet & he's still much to skinny for my liking.
Oh, and Joey loves tummy rubs. Liz.

Glad to hear pictures will be coming soon

Ohhh!!! Joey sounds like an absolute doll!!

I'm so glad he was able to come home and that the others are adapting well to his presense.

Sounds like Punkin and Joey will be best buds.

I was very disappointed with these pictures. Out of 27
possible pics, there were only 10 pics that were halfway
decent. I decided to go ahead and show these two of Joey
although they are not what I wanted at all. These were taken
as Joey followed me around the basement as I did laundry &
swept & mopped the floor.


Here he jumped into a old box of stuff to be taken out to
the trash. His bad eye shows up pretty clearly.

Here's one of Me, Mike & Molly when we met at McDonalds in
Speedway. (They were meeting up with Sammy's foster mom)

What a wonderful happy ending to an awful beginning. Welcome Joey. You will be well taken care of now and we hope to see many more pictures of your sweet facie. Nose-kisses to you and hugs to you Liz for all you do.

Here's a pic of my kitty loving pooch Smokey.

p.s. Believe it or not these pics were the best of the bunch.
Hopefully the ones I've taken since will turn out better.

Aww cute pictures!

[jazzcat]

Yay!! Joey pictures.

We need more you know!!

[mugsy]

Oh geez, I'm on the CAT side!!! hehehe That was the day that we had to give Baby up and Liz helped make it a little easier. I know that she is in a better home now since she has a job during the day and is a house dog at night. Thanks for posting the picture Liz. Cute pictures too (except maybe the one with me in it.) Oh yeah...you did something right, Mike NEVER smiles in pictures.
