Arrival Story:
I got a call from the rescue we work with. Calvin's rescuer was a lovely lady, who was having trouble with her older cats adapt to Calvin. Her elder cat had begun to self mutilate, frustrated with the active and playful little kitten.
They also had trouble with showing Calvin. When she had first gotten Calvin and his sister, they had ringworm, and she had caged them in her basement....for 3 months on the advice of her vet. When their time in 'solitary 'was up, Calvin and his sister were placed for adoption-and immediately his sister, who looked pure snowshoe was scooped up but the woman said she didn't want a cat who wasn't a 'purebred'.
Calvin was taken to petco, but after months in a cage, he became immediately 'cage crazy' attacking the front of the cage and behaving 'oddly'. His rescuer called the rescue to report he wasn't 'adoptable' and they should 'send him to a sanctuary'.
When he was bought to our apartment, the first thing we did was open the door to his cage, and let him out.
In a week, he turned into the best, sweetest, and most wonderful, soft, bunny furred, purrrsonablle young adorable kitten there is. There was never anything wrong with Calvin...he just needed to be part of a cat household where he could be a cat.
Bio:
Proud to be Samoa's pick as Dreamboat-in-Training #46b for February 2013!
Mother's Day my husband gave me a very special present-recognizing that Calvin was my 'baby' and how much I loved him, he told me Calvin had found his 'furever' home-ours.
Thank you Laura Strickland and Samoa-we know you and your furs saw it in the cards somewhere.
I've never had a kitten that would lay on a pillow and purr into my ear, or lick my face.
We love Calvin.
Calvin was given his full name in honor of the Legendary Calvin here on Catster.

Hi everyone!
It's me, Calvin!
You know what? You know what?
I wasn't feeling good on Sunday and I sleeped the whole day and Monday too.
Well, Tuesday night Daddy took me to the vet. And the vet said I had a very painful URI called a calci virus and I had sores on my throat and tongue.
So I am getting medicine...YUCK!!!!
It's nasty but I take it cause I have to.
The good news is....I got 'dopted!!!!
Don't worry-I didn't go anywhere!
Daddy gave Mommy a card on Sunday for mothers day...and it was from me! It said 'I am yours furever, Mom!
Daddy said he noticed that I am very bonded to the clowder, and also, that I follow Mommy around except when Ij was sick, then I just laid down alot. But I have been feeling better...and playing with my buddies CK and Middy, and reaching up to mommy to be picked up.
So Daddy noticed that I am very much a 'momma's boy. He talked it over with the rescue lady who said 'well, you guys have your plates full. But he said that he really thought about it, and that of all of the boys, I'm the least trouble. I only play in water, and sometimes chew on stuff. And he noticed that when Mommy is sad, it's me and Natalie alot of the time who are closest to her.
So he said I'm home.
Miss Samoa...wondering if you had something to do with it? Or the Calvin I am named after.
It's good to be home...
love,
Calvin

Hi Everyone,
The Mom here-please purr for Calvin McCatster. He went to the vet last week with an ulcer in his eye. Turned out it as a URI.
He was responding well, and his usual active self. Then Sunday he was quiet, and yesterday, very very quiet.
Today he's squinting (he has eye meds he's been taking) and appears uncomfortable.
We're in the process of waiting for vet office to open so appointment can be made.
Worried about Calvin....my sweet little guy.
Not himself at all, please purr!!!
Thanks,
Mom

Everyone,
I'm so excited!!! I can't beleive that I am a Dreamboat in Training!!!!
You see, Mommy's not been feeling well, and our internet was down for 2 days, and Mommy couldn't get on. Plus, she hasn't been able to get on at work, because they have been mean to her there.
So today she just found out!!!
She took some new pics of me she will post.
I'm so excited.
I want to thank Miss Samoa. I know it's hard for her to narrow it down to just the cats she picks, there are so many wonderful cats that are on Catster.
I know I'm very lucky to be named after the Great Calvin Knead On.
Mommy told daddy yesterday that she really can't see giving me up. Her only concern is expense-as Ruffy's been having some health issues and the clinic Mommy has been using for him she feels just isn't 'getting whatever's going on'. So Ruffy will have to go to the vet mommy used and wanted to get away from, but who she feels may know more what to do for him.
As for me, I got a little bigger, but not much.
When I am not playing, I am laying next to mommy or my brothers, or in the cat tree, sleeping and purring. Or getting into mischief!
Mommy sings me this little song...
'Calvin McCatster, your my little bratster, Calvin McCatster, I love you...
Daddy, however, sings it this way...
Calvin McCatster, you Savage little basta....oops, thats a bad word, don't want my mouth washed out with soap...thats me saying that...not daddy...
then he says 'Calvin McCatster....what other thing can you do?'
mommy told daddy today that Midnight and me and CK ripped up the shower liner and they need a new one. Daddy said he knew...he saw a hole in the shower cutrain this morning after I came streaking out....
hehehe!!! Thank you for making me a Dreamboat in Training Miss Samoa!!!
love,
Calvin McCatster
