Well the Maestros have taken in yet another stray cat!

C'mon people, spay and neuter your cats and dogs. In the meantime, we have taken in this gray tabby. She has a wonderful personality. She's extremely friendly, outgoing and playful! She's 9wks old according to the vet. She has some roundworms for which she is taking medicine. She also received all her shots today. Here are a few pics!









And our other recent addition to the family is a bit more of an independent type. You play with her when she deems interaction with humans necessary. At present, she is trying to size up the new little one. She's a pretty calico







Our poor dog, just doesn't know what to do. She avoids the cats like the plague. :rofl:

That's great that you are giving her a home.

We have so many compassionate people on this board!

I am growing into a real softy in my old age.

I love the pic of your new Tabby meowing! lol! Congrats on your most recent additions! :-)

She has a very strange meow. I have never had a cat that such a low audible meow. The other one is very vocal but not this one.

If you start meowing back, at a Tabby, they will never shut up! lol!

Consider yourself forewarned. :hi:

;)

but rather loquacious, uh? :)

My husband did it! I warned him not to start "talking" with a Tabby. Now she never shuts up! It stops being cute after awhile... really. :-(

AAaaaarghhh! STFU, cat!

Yeah, tabbies are motor mouths.

I used to have a tabby named Cairo who was the same. And he was LOUD!!! He literally would drown out people on the phone...
This is how it went
*Ring*
Me; "Hello?"
Cairo: MWROOOW!!!MRROOOW!!!
Me:"Pardon me for a moment..*covers phone*--Shut up, Cairo!!!
Me: Okay sorry for the cat....
Literally, this exact conversation happened at least 20 times, maybe more....:eyes: :crazy:

:bounce:

I am not sure my dog thinks so though. She runs from them. ;)

I'm behind you 100%

You are such a kind and compassionate person for sharing your home with this orphan. What are their names?

:hi:

We haven't decided one for the new one. Heck, we couldn't tell what sex she was until the vet visit. :rofl: I'm open to suggestions.

Part of what I do on Saturdays has to do with naming pets. I was fishing for ideas :P

:yoiks:

I think my family is leaning towards Gracie.

I especially can't stand the trade in birds that are uprooted from their habitat such as the Amazon and then spend time in someone's living room.

since few people can make an 80-year commitment!

Some of those parrots can live that long? Wow!

I hate reading about the new breeds of cats that they're making by crossing wild ones with domesticated ones. People say, "Oh, they won't be happy living inside because they're part wild..." but is *any* animal happy living inside with only humans for company? The fish are probably the worst. I'd bet that a good number of house fish have gone completley insane. And people say, "Oh, it's just an animal, it doesn't think like us so it doesn't mind..." Human supremacy is no less of a myth than white supremacy.

Welcome to DU, by the way. Is a Seuss Tree the big thing with the pink/orange top that the Lorax spoke for? :hi:

she's a babydoll. I just took in an 8 week old kitten, well now he's around 9 and a half weeks old too but he seems alot smaller than her. (pics to follow, our digital camera broke so I'm taking pics of him with a disposable)

Ya'll are great for taking her in!!

I agree with you wholeheartedly on the spaying and neutering........ It beyond comprehension how many stray dogs and cats there are out there due to irresponsible so called pet owners.

Make sure you post them when they are ready. We are still thinking about a name, but like I told Inchworm, I'm open to suggestions. :) Oh and irresponsible pet owners or anyone who would harm a defenseless animal make me wanna hurl! I detest people like that.

My beloved Kittyboy was a grey tabby just like her. I got him when he was two years old. I got such a warm smile looking at her cause I just imagined Kittyboy looking like that as a kitten. He is gone now but is forever in my heart and in an urn at home :)

Although she is lucky too. I will run those by the family. Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion. :hi:

I hope you are all a wonderful, happy family together for a long time. (as soon as the dog learns to deal with the cats.) :)

So far so good. :)

Kobe cat died in June. Since then we have adopted a new pup, but I miss kitty love....

We took in the calico about a month ago I guess and then just yesterday afternoon the other one. Other than that, it had been since 1986 since I had kitty love.

Just like your bird pix you have captured the spirits of your cats perfectly! I almost feel like Patches is going to jump out at me from that last picture (beautiful eyes!):)

Patches is very easy picture. She is very photogenic. I too love her eyes. I miss my birds. Things have been slow bird-wise. However, work has really kept me away from the camera and birding along with a nasty cold/virus I have been fighting for the last week and a half. Hopefully, soon I will have some new bird pics to share. Thanks for the nice comments.

In the 4th picture she looks like a wild animal, like *raor*

I just looove calicos :loveya:

and decided to give her little, barely audible roar. She wore herself out. Now she is just sleeping the evening away.

Congratulations on your new cutie (and your calico is gorgeous). We have a silly kitten beastie ourselves and are having a glorious time with him.

where you live BTW. :) Then we took out to the country with us down south of you.

We adopted our kitten in Grapevine - he was born to a feral mom. He LOOOOOOOOOVES people and other cats - we hit the jackpot with him. May you have such happiness with your new little one!

I love them both

Now if I could just get the new one off all of my pillows that I will later be sleeping on. :rofl:

cats and 1 slim elderly adult kitty in my bed yesterday morning. They were down on the prowl after bobbycobain, pitbull clown of the universe, was put to bed and behind closed doors. :hi: :)

Looks like my twins, picked up as strays during a traffic stop by the Tennessee Highway patrol. I call them my 200 dollar "free" kitties. That was the fine for driving 70 in a 55mph zone.

Thanks for taking her in Maestro! You are 100% right about spaying & neutering. If people would WAKE THE HELL UP and understand that they have to fix their animals there wouldn't be so many animals that suffer and die due to human stupidity. It is simple & inexpensive to do and if you can't afford to do this one little act of kindness for your pet you shouldn't have one.

We already fixed Patches for something like $65. We have an awesome vet! As soon as Gracie, the grey tabby's official name now, is old enough, she will be fixed too. It is just no worth bringing in more unwanted animals. Thanks for looking.

kisses for gracie and patches!

Right now Gracie is walking allo u90yu jiehpw fjdsiver the keyboard. :)

too. We called those pics the "natureboy series" since it was usually my brother who was in the shot.

And they look very happy checking out their new home... :hi:
