Arrival Story: I was visiting friends at the farm next to my brother's farm the day after my father's funeral. When I went to leave, the 5 year old daughter (Libby) of one of my friends said very sweetly, "I have kittens for sale. Do you want to see them?" I was hesitate as I have some allergies but not wanting to disappoint Libby I agreed to go to the barn to see the kitties. The youngest litter had 4 siblings that were around 4 months old. There were 3 shorthair females of which one was a calico and the other 2 were black with white markings. The one male had long hair white with a few black markings that was promised to someone already. I picked up the calico and found her to be very friendly and playful. Libby's grandfather (my father's best friend) guaranteed she would be real good at purring. One of Libby's aunts suggested I could name the kitten Callie. So after everyone in the family had given me all the reasons why I should take the calico kitten, I asked Libby how much did she want for it. "Oh nothing," she said. "I'm just selling them." Well at that price, you just can't say no, so Callie came home with me.
Bio: First Day Home
The first thing mom did when she got me home was to give me a bath. I had so much farm dust on me, mom was sneezing a lot. Yuck! Baths = water and I hate getting in water, but mom persisted and got me clean and dry. Mom had tried to get all the stains in my white areas out, but couldn't get one spot on my tummy out. To this day I still have that stain. Guess what mom! That's a tiny spot of orange hair!

For years I have held my tail straight up in the air and shaked it when mom comes around me. She always thinks it looks like I'm about to do that nasty thing of spraying but I never have. Just like to shake my tail.
The other day mom was reading up on some traits and behaviors of other cat breeds. There was one breed which told of doing the same thing with their tails as what I do. Turns out it is a sign of happiness and affection and it's called shimmering. Mom is very happy to know I shimmer for her.
Mom has been going to the county fair most everyday since Saturday. She comes home with all these interesting smells. PJ and I just sniff her for about 5 minutes when she gets home.
Tonight, mom came home and stopped to pet us. She had a different smell. Couldn't quite figure it out. Mom then went straight to her bathroom and shut the door. Came out pretty soon and made a couple of trips between the bathroom and the garage. Such odd behavior for mom.
Later she sat down on the sofa. I settled next to her and PJ on the coffee table. Wasn't too long before she was up and into the bathroom again. Came out, sat on the sofa only this time with something black on her shoulder and it moved! Mom put her hand down from the black thing for PJ to smell. It wasn't too long before PJ was hissing and the black thing make a little growl. Mom got up and took the black thing to the bathroom.
