Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / December 2006New Kitty hanging out
She's really pretty. Grey with black stripes, white nose, white paws, long-ish hair and a bushy, squirrel-like tail. She's been hanging out for a little over a month. Both the neighbors and us are feeding her and she's getting increasingly less shy. I'd love to get a picture, but we're out of batteries, darn it! The neighbors kind-of want to claim her, and so do we, thus, we're currently discussing splitting a vet bill to get her fixed (she's rather young), get her shots, and have her tested for the various kitty ailments. She plays with Pua through the screen door; they bat at each other. It's really cute. :~) She's allowing us to pick her up now and resounding purrs erupt from her little, fluffy body. TFM® wants to make her a permanent member of our furry household, but NO WAY am I taking on a 4th cat in this little house. 800 square feet isn't big enough for 3 indoor felines, let alone 4. If we can get some new batteries this weekend, I'll post some links to pix. She's got the cutest little face! kili -- http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kilikini > She plays with Pua through the screen door; they bat at each other.

Remember who had 7 kitties in a 700' sq. place before moving :) >> She plays with Pua through the screen door; they bat at each other. >> It's really cute. :~) [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > your extra special new nursecat.

We want her and the neighbors, sort-of, want her. We're willing to take her to the vet, so IMO, it's our call. kili -- http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kilikini >> Excuse me for screaming :o but from those pictures alone I could fall >> in love.

She is beautiful. And she looks extremely friendly and sweet. Somebody should be caring for her! Joyce Good lord she is GORGEOUS! Maybe you and the neighbors can just all around share her? > > She's really pretty. Grey with black stripes, white nose, white paws, > > long-ish hair and a bushy, squirrel-like tail.

That's true! kili -- http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kilikini > We kind of want to claim her though. :-D She hangs out more on our > doorstep than the neighbors'! > kili Hi Kili, I can tell you are smitten by this cat, but if you don't have room, would the other neighbor be able to take her in so that she will not have to hang out on doorsteps? It all boils down to what is best for the cat. Annie >> We kind of want to claim her though. :-D She hangs out more on our >> doorstep than the neighbors'! [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Annie You're absolutely right, Annie, but my neighbors already feed 3 cats and they leave them all outdoors. Mine are indoors, get attention, get annual checkups, etc. My neighbors just feed and ignore. It's getting cold outside (yes, even here in Florida!) and I don't want the poor thing to freeze. She's really sweet. kili -- http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kilikini >>> We kind of want to claim her though. :-D She hangs out more on our >>> doorstep than the neighbors'!

It's nice they are chipping in with feeding her but (and I already told you this) they don't really sound like they care about their cats. Jill ..

I thought from your message that you were thinking of leaving her outside. Best wishes to the kitty for a new home and to you to recover from your surgery. I think you are a miracle lady for the progress you've already made. Annie >> She's really pretty. Grey with black stripes, white nose, white paws, >> long-ish hair and a bushy, squirrel-like tail.

You're right, I just question the ideals of my neighbors. They had an indoor cat, Chester, they let out and was hit by a car within a matter of weeks. They took him to the vet, he was fixed, but he's still an outdoor cat. The neighbors will disappear for a weekend and not leave food out, etc. I've called animal control on them before. They seem slightly more responsible, now, but I just want this little one to have a home. She likes us, we like her, we're kind of going...........what do we do? The neighbors are willing to help get her fixed, but they're not offering to take her in to get her fixed. We'll do it, that part's okay. But, this little one really needs a loving home. She is an absolute sweetheart. kili -- http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kilikini >> She's gorgeous Kili!

[quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >But, this little one really needs a loving home. She is an absolute >sweetheart. Oh... I guess that's a bit different then. You might have to take her in yourself then. I forgot to say... how about letting HER decide - leave your screen door open (and your own cats safely sequestered in another room) and see if she wants to be an indoor kitty :) She obviously likes your mob already... > I just took some pictures!!!!!!!!! > http://tinyurl.com/y3n5h7 It's a Yahoo page, so as usual it doesn't work here.

It works fine for me here in the UK. I was able to look at the photos. I don't know why you can't. It's doubtful that there is a problem with Yahoo, then.

She's beautiful, a bit like a medium haired version of Boyfriend. I'd be tempted to take her in too. Could you manage if she turned out to be pregnant, though? It's a real possibility with a stray female. Let's hope when you take her to the vets they find a spay scar, eh? ;-) You really want to keep her, don't you? I found that once I had two dogs, more did not make much difference. Tweed > I just took some pictures!!!!!!!!! > > http://tinyurl.com/y3n5h7 > > for the link. I hope it works. Aww, what a sweetie. FWIW, I don't think the amount of floor space is so important for cats as having many different levels to move about and hang out on. If my conversion is right, my flat is only about 485 square feet (45 square metres), and even when Frank was alive, I never got the feeling that they felt cramped. Of course, they have their enclosure, but that's only about 108 square feet (again, if my conversion is right, 10 square metres). When they get their zoomies, they zoom up and down their cat trees and other furniture.  SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki.

It's a bit hard to see her tail, but it sounds like a really full, big fluffy one. I love kitties with tails like that. I'll bet she marches around with her tail up in the air.

Hopefully she can find a great home. Purrs and best wishes, Polonca and Soncek Christy, I just read your journal. I'm glad the pain is starting to be ease up a bit and hope your days are getting better. Trying to get back somewhere close to normal from an operation like that is probably frustrating. It's a good sign to see your name on the group! I think it's amazing that another cat found you. When you feel up to it, let us know what happened with her. Take care, Rhonda > She's really pretty.
