Mama likes to come in, but she gets antsy and doesn't like to stay. I had posted
a couple pix of her on the bed with Rex, but I just uploaded these to my puter
and thought they were pretty good! (Now if I could find a wild animal trainer to
trim her talons!)

They're wonderful! What pretty kitties! In all different ways. Who is
who? (Sorry if you've already described them all, but I must have missed
it.) They all look so cute together.
Also, the quilt is lovely - did you make it?

ShirleyB - 20 Mar 2006 18:58 GMT
Joyce, thanks. Long story short to avoid everyone's boredom. Rexie is 3. Adopted
at 3.5 weeks from cousin who'd found him. Three yrs pass happily until he's
spoiled rotten. Typical male Siamese. Lookee, admiree, but no touchee.
In Sep 05 I found/adopted 'Mama' dehydrated, starving stray. Couple weeks later
realized she was pg. Got her spayed and vaccinated (minimally) since she'd be
coming in and out.
Two weeks later she brings a litter of five to my door for me to take care of.
They were about 5 wks. Got homes for the 4 girls - no one wanted the boy, he
ended up being Loki. REXIE NOT HAPPY.
So now they are three, two in, one in-out. But if you've seen the pix of
Brother, her kit from her first litter (Loki was litter #2, I spayed her on
Litter #3 - mind you, the vet figured Mama was 9 or 10 mos old when she was
spayed - an on litter #3??!! She was dumped, I'm sure, because nothing in the
house scares her - not even the vacuum.
Brother, now bigger than Mama and orange also, will at lease sleep w/Mama in the
little shelter we bought them. But won't let us near him. I even tried traps,
but he's way too wary. Don't know how that situation is going to pan out. Other
cats have realized our porch is safe. I'm not going to have a bunch of cats
hanging out, so am trying to figure a resolution.
As to the quilt, it is pretty, but no way did I make it. Bought it a couple of
years ago at a Linen Barn. Machine washable also.
PS: Rexie still not happy, but reluctantly accepting. I just try to spend a lot
of time with him.

Trust, me, Rexie isn't TOO unhappy if he lets them sleep that near. My Pearl
and Sugar still will not sleep with in 5 or more feet of each other.

By the way, I love the photo where Rexie has just been awakened by all
the washing, the one where you say "Rexie not amused" or something like
that. Mama actually looks like she's got quite a snarl on her! Maybe
she's getting a little tired of Loki's ministrations? He's looking very
playful, maybe a bit too playful for her taste? :)
Joyce
ShirleyB - 21 Mar 2006 02:20 GMT
I don't think it's a snarl, she squints a lot. But Loki is rough with her (and
she with him); One will grab the other around the neck and flip him/her. They
don't do it too often. I think Mama is just damn tired of being a mommy. It's
like, all right, already! I had you, I nursed you, I trained you, now it's
hoomin mommy's turn!
(Wouldn't we all feel tired after 3 litters in around a year?)

What a gorgeous, shiny, cuddly bunch they are.
ShirleyB - 20 Mar 2006 18:59 GMT
Thanks, but leave out 'cuddly'. Rats, none of them want to be cuddled, but Loki
and Mama love being scritched and petted.

Awwww. One of these days she'll just start staying in I bet. Rex sure
doesn't seem to care! I don't know how he slept through all that :DD

It's wonderful to see them all get along like that. Lovely pics! Loki is
still my favourite.
