Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / April 2004New Cat
Would the group please send welcoming purrs and good settling in vibes to McCavity please? He's our new cat, and is currently hiding under a chair in the conservatory. He was born in autumn 2001, given away to a petshop (!) and sold to an elderly lady who went on to adopt three more kittens within a year, then died, leaving them to her son, who already had four cats of his own. Unable to cope, he signed his mother's cats over to us in January, and three of them were adopted quickly, McCavity failing to make an impression on anyone until Ade fell in love with him this morning. He's a brown / black tabby with a white chin and tiny white bib. He's got white toes too! He's only got one eye, he lost his right eye in an accident last year. And you can see him here. http://www.futurenation.net/prestoncpl/images/mccavityweb.jpg Jeanette >Would the group please send welcoming purrs and good settling in vibes to >McCavity please?

At least Laku has tabby markings in direct sunlight, or strong lamplight, but otherwise he's solid black (very dark brown, not blue-black). If someone hasn't seen him, pics are to be found in the addy in my sig and checking out the folder called Laku. No strong light closeups among the pics tho, to show his tabby stripes.

If you ever want to make your head spin and your eyes glaze over, start reading up on cat color-genetics. ;) Theresa alt.tv.frasier FAQ: http://www.im-listening.net/FAQ/ Single-mindedness is all very well in cows or baboons; in an animal claiming to belong to the same species as Shakespeare it is simply disgraceful.

There's a European wildcat at the Helsinki City Zoo. It's funny to go from the tiger and lion enclosures to the wildcat's enclosure and see this tabby going about his business.

He's beautiful, and the loss of one eye should not cause any problems. I adopted Duffy a little more than a year ago. He has been completely blind since birth.

[quoted text clipped - 11 lines] : : Pam, Rob, and the NC nine When I was a kid a neighborhood cat(stray) had a litter with 3 of the 4 kitten with only one eye, it was an odd birthing(taking place in our garage) with a set of twins in one birth sack(both missing an eye) and 2 other kittens one with one eye and one with two. My vet has an office cat missing an eye. He is beautiful laid back long haired cat that looks lke a maine coon. They said he was brought to them as a found injured cat, underfed, missing fur, and injured eye. They named him Willy. He is a wonderful asset to their office, so laid back that when a large half grown german shepard came over and snuffled his nose deep into willy's belly fur willy never even raised a paw or a hiss. peace, p > McCavity is a gorgeous boy....he and Blind Terrorist Rowdy would make a > "book-end pair" on Pine Cone's pirate voyage: Rowdy has a blind left eye, [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > : > Welcome, welcome McCavity. You certainly are a handsome dude. You have a namesake in The Book of Cats by T. S. Elliot. McCavity's job was to make things disappear, as in take them, also, to create mischief.
