THESE ARE OUR CATS! THIS IS MY BLOG!

Rosie and Charley are siblings and best friends. We adopted them
from friends who rescued their little family.

Bugsy showed up on our street on a hot summer day - tiny, hungry, and as it turns out, very lucky.
He thinks Charley is his mum!

There is also the occasional litter of foster kittens . . .

These felines have been kind enough to share the house with us.
We thought we might share them with you.

Sabu and Chai are Adopted - and Transformed!

Sabu and Chai went home with their forever family a few days ago and ascended Mount Olympus to become "Perseus" (Percy) and Annabeth, names chosen by Olivia and Vanessa from the the wonderful book "The Lightning Thief", by Rick Riordan. Percy and Annabeth will join a fabulous menagerie that includes two dogs, three chickens, Opal the cat, Popcorn the guinea pig, and a young corn snake! I'll keep everyone posted on the various introductions.

Kitty Mixer

The new kittens got a clean bill of health last week and were allowed to meet the resident cats.  Bugsy was over the moon to have so many playmates.  Charley got right down to mentoring in the proper way to play and Rosie is trying to teach those little wild things some manners. Now if someone could just teach them to scoop the litter boxes . . . 
Charley has his paws full with Jasmine and Chai.
Cuddle Bugsy and Ollie.
"OK, kid - that's really not necessary."
All Chai needs to complete the look is a rhinestone collar.
"So what's for dessert?"
"These kids wear me out!"
Tails of Fun and Adventure

Bugsy and Sabu share a basket snoozle.

"Love ya, bro."
  
In good company.

More kittens????

YES! These four were rescued when their feral mom was trapped so she could be spayed and vaccinated.  How could we say no? (Brain damage, probably.) They are about 8 weeks old and have decided they LOVE people and the great indoors!
JASMINE  needs unlimited minutes on her phone plan, because
she LOVES to talk!  
This little boy has four white socks and is ready for adventure.
(We still need a good name for him, though!)
This is CHAI, our pretty, exotic girl.  Look at those blue eyes!
Chai's brother, SABU, digs into dinner with both paws. They
are almost twins, but Sabu has white socks.
Good kitties cleaning their plate!

Bugsy Settles In

Bugsy (aka Bug-Z) has settled in just fine and has a clean bill of health from the vet.  He loves his Uncle Charley and Aunt Rosie, and lives up to his name "BUG" on a daily basis!
What's for dinner?
Snoozle with Aunt Rosie
Awww . . . 
"I is BOY CAT!"
Still just a baby . . .
. . . who needs lots of sleep.
