12. It's true! That's what the vet weighed her at. She's very small, it's just her long hair
that makes her look bigger.

3. I had one just like Silly
His name was Clyde. He was a wonderful old fussbudget of a cat, a rescue who was grateful for a new home.

He's been gone two years and I miss him every day.

5. Silly is also a rescue cat. She was 8 years old when we adopted her.
Very sweet, but very much a fussbudget as well... LOL!

So sorry to hear about Clyde. I'm sure he knew he was adored and his time with you was wonderful! :hug: Have you adopted again?

9. I have another rescue, a little old lady cat I adopted a year
after I got a four year old Clyde. She was about eight months old when I adopted her, recovering from an abortion and spaying, a woman of the world.

She's 15 now. Clyde was 17 when he died.

71. Alex will be happy to lie on your lap...
just don't plan on getting up anytime soon. Once his 120ish pounds are settled entirely covering your lap and upper torso, he tends to doze off. The good news is he seldom snores, but does have some vivid dreams. Your best bets for play are Maia and Roufous. If you like mind exercises, Rouf will be happy to challenge you. For pure physical combat, Maia is your girl.

They have the same mother but are from different litters. We're pretty sure that they have the same father too.

55. OMG Too funny.
When I was a teen, box turtles were my "fetish". I had up to 30 at at time in a specially built pen outside. They had their own "cement pond" (The Beverly Hillbillys were big then) and a breeding area. We raised many baby turtles. All were released years later when I moved on to "other" fetishes.:evilgrin:

56. I've had Mushroom since I was 8. She's in her 40s at least.
Sausage is newer though. I thought the old girl would like some company. She has laid a small clutch of unfertile eggs before.

50. They do love their corn.
Please forgive the poor quality of this image. Over half of the lens was blocked by the window ledge because of the angle I was forced to shoot at. But, you can still get the idea of how far they will go to get their corn.

57. Cats love to hide in the bags.
Edited on Mon Dec-29-08 02:44 PM by lizzy
One day my cat got his head in the bag (paper bag with handles) I brought home from some shopping. Of course he somehow managed to get his head into the handle, and then decided someone was out to kill him. So he was running around like crazy meowing bloody murder until I got that bag off his head. After which he took off and hid under the bed.
