My Furry Children

Happy New Year!!! Welcome 2012

Here are the darlings - ready for a new year!

It's a Hard Knock Life

The Quiet Hour

These were all taken today. For some reason, they look a lot like ones taken before!

Someone's getting chubby....

I wonder why?

Memorial Day 2011

Note: Binky looks like he has an aura because I had to use the "backlight" filter in order to have his features show up at all. The OOTC (out of the camera) picture looks like silhouette. For once, Raquel's eyes actually showed up without having to edit the picture at all. Black cats are VERY hard to photograph! Huber & Clovis, on the other hand, are easy (and usually irresistable!).

Huber's Tough Life

Reports of Huber having a rough time of it are NOT true!

Integration Continues

Every day sees Huber becoming more a part of the family. Food helps!

The Further Adventures of Huber

Well, Mr. Huber disappeared during a major snowstorm on February 23. We were a little concerned, but not much, since he has gone wandering for several days at a time before. On March 1, when he still hadn't shown up, I put an ad on Craigslist. Still nothing. Just about the time we had resigned ourselves to the fact that he either had another home or something had happened to him, I got an email!!! This past Monday, March 7, some folks Kitty lovers - they have 5 cats & 2 dogs!) were bringing their daughter to dancing lessons and a cat approached them in the parking lot of the studio. (This place is about a mile from us.) They asked around and no one claimed him, so they brought him home, checked Craigslist, and contacted me. Tuesday, Little Man's Grandfather and I went to their house and WOO HOO, it was our long lost boy!!!!!

I decided that I had given everyone a chance to adopt this darling boy and no one stepped forward, so home he came with me Tuesday night. Little Man's Father agreed. We made a vet appointment for him and Thursday he went to see our wonderful, kitty-loving vet. The good news is that he does not have feline leukemia, so we went ahead with shots and an operation. He is 9.5 lbs and about 1.5 to 2 years old. He is now home recuperating and starting to meet the rest of the troops. This AM, he and Clovis spent some time together and actually touched noses! Binky and Raquel will be harder, but hopefully we will all adjust eventually to being a 4 cat house (heaven help us!) instead of 3.

Huber

This handsome boy showed up in November last year at Little Man's Grandfather's shop. (got that?) We tried to find out if he was someone's lost pet but no one claimed him and he is now quite at home in his new chosen domicile. When he is not on the desk demanding attention or tagging around looking cute and hoping for more food, he can be found lounging on the lift truck seat. He is a love bug - can't get enough petting and attention - and would be content to be carried around like a baby all day if possible.
