Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / May 2008Orphan Kittens Update, Almost a Year
Remember the two stripey kittens we had last summer? Sissy's new name is Mobic (Mobie)....she is now the only cat in the household, her new owner is a middleaged nurse. (Hence the name. I think it's some kind of drug). She is loved, and spoiled, I got a photo of her inside the dishwaster licking plates not long ago. (ewww.) But the best story is Bubby, I think that's still his name. He's also the only cat in the house, his owner is a 14-year-old girl. We got several photos. Apparently Bubby's mom likes to sew for him, because in every picture he has a different seasonal outfit on, complete with a hat. He has a Christmas outfit, and Easter outfit, a St. Patrick's Day outfit, etc., but it looks like sometimes he dresses casually with only a T-shirt on. If this was any *other* cat, I'd say it was abuse. But I know Bubby, and I know he loves it. They never did know they were cats anyway. If there's anyone new or doesn't remember the story, Bubby & Sissy's mom was a feral that got killed by dogs when they were teeny-tiny and had to be bottle-raised. They had one other littermate that didn't make it. They were like little pieces of meat. I swear, I never expected them to live. If it wasn't for Pedialyte and KMR they probably would not have. It's just a good thing to hear, and I wanted to share it.

(ewww.) I think it's cute. Although her human had better check before shutting the dishwasher door and starting the wash cycle! Was she licking the plates before or after they were washed? (I don't think it's gross if they still hadn't been washed, but it would be if they were already clean and then put away with kitty germs on them.) > If there's anyone new or doesn't remember the story For some reason, I don't remember this story at all. I don't know why, I was here and reading last year! Not a good sign... > Bubby & Sissy's mom was a feral that got killed by dogs when they > were teeny-tiny and had to be bottle-raised.

It is great to know that they survived and both have good homes.

I wish I had pics of the first days, they were so tiny--but I didn't take any because I honestly didn't think they'd live.

I'm so glad you rescued them, nursed them to health, and found homes. Great story! Incidentally, I think mobic is medication for arthritis. So, it makes sense that a nurse would choose that name.

All the nicer for having two striped cuties on it. Thanks for the pics.

You did good! Rhonda > Remember the two stripey kittens we had last summer? > [quoted text clipped - 33 lines] > > Sherry Thank you for this great update. Such good news. Happy cats, happy people.

(ewww.) Duffy shows a lot of interest in the dishwasher. He sometimes gets up on the open door and starts to investigate the pull-out trays. That's one place I don't want him because I have a fear of him getting inside and getting trapped there. Actually, I don't think he would wander into those upright "spikes," and I always look inside just to make sure -- but it give me shivers just to think about it. > But the best story is Bubby, I think that's still his name.

The only exception is that I bought a little Santa hat and tried to get pictures of Holly and Duffy wearing it. No way! Neither one will let me set it on their heads. Even Duffy, who is blind, somehow knows as soon as I start to perch it on his head, an he immediately objects.
