SAMI'S KITTIES

 

                                                                    

 

Miss Grace was a stray that found us. She stayed about a week, left for two weeks, then came back. Basically she said she had looked around and decided she would like to live here, We said "sure". She then said she was going to have babies. We said that is fine:  We would be with her. After one baby  was born, I left her for a few minutes and she came looking for me. "You said you would stay with me." She had one more kitty. Then she asked if she could keep her babies and we said "Yes". She had two beautiful babies.

Miss Grace  is very sweet, very big, very quiet and very gentle. She will only drink water from the faucet while sitting in the sink.

 

 
Booter is Miss Grace's first born. He is black and white. He has four white boots on his feet:   Hence the name Booter. Booter is a love:  A very affectionate lap cat. He likes to crawl under the covers on our bed at night.

 
 

 

 

Leona is Booter's baby sister: About 2 hours younger. She is more distant but still a sweetheart. She had a serious infection on her neck which eventually circled her whole neck area. We thought we would lose her but decided to declaw her back feet.  That way if she scratched it at least she could not dig her claws into the sore. It worked and she is absolutely beautiful. She is a big girl weighing in at 15 pounds. Her father may have been part wild cat. She is named after my Aunt who would be honored to have a such a beautiful cat named after her.  

 

Casper, who is all white, came to us after going to the animal shelter. The people that had him took him there only to find the shelter had thirty or so kittens at the time and finding a home would be difficult. They asked us if we would take him… what's one more cat. We said we would see how he got along with the others, he would be number five. Well if there is one thing Casper knew it was how to get along and win our hearts. He now thinks he is head cat, but is running into some opposition.

 

 

 

Sophie loves to sit and the counter and watch our every move.

Sitting on the calculator is one of her favorite spots

 

And now she has discovered my computer

Maow Maow was found by a friend laying next to his dead mother with his litter mates..  He was about 4 - 5 weeks old. John  was going to take the kitties to the store and find homes for them  Maow Maow would not let himself get caught.  So John kept him for awhile.  He really did not have a good place for him so asked if we might like to have him..  Maow Maow is a wonderful cat.  He is so sweet and loving.  Casper took over the parenting role for a time and showed him the ropes.

 

 

 

Sophie... is a little unwanted baby. The product of a divorce and an only child besides. Here she was at eleven years old and nowhere to go. She is a little thing, maybe five or six pounds with very large eyes. She is learning how to let herself be loved. She won't take any nonsense from the others, and can hold her own even though she was de-clawed years ago. Casper would like to be her boss, but she says no one bosses her. We are so happy to have her here where she can spend her remaining years being loved.

Snow Kitty is Casper's Mother.  She found herself without a home so we took her in.  It was hard for to adjust but she learned.  She is a real sweetheart and loves to sit in Tom's lap.

 

 

And then there was Shoulders....so named because that is where is likes to sit.  He is the product of a divorce and was tossed out of the car.  Fortunately the car was not moving.  He fit in very well and would like to be boss cat.  Not to likely..
