Arrival Story:
I was looking for a companion to a female retiree Manx I was adopting. I phoned the local Humane Society and asked if they had any Manx. Wow! A litter being fostered had one black and white "tail-less" kitten. They had her set apart for me and when I went to the Humane Society and they brought her to me in a carrier, it was love at first sight. My very-first-cat-ever was a black and white and I've never had a cat with that coloring since. I decided to look at my first cat's photos and noticed she had a black nose. Sure enough, the first thing I noticed about this kitten was her black nose shaped like a HEART! I really wanted a rumpie, so when I took her out to look at her, sure enough, she's a rumpie riser. Wow! I had been looking for a Manx for a number of years and now I got TWO a month apart. It was definately meant to be.
They were the best of buddies! We lost the older cat Zoe 26 March 2007 (during the Pet Food Scare) and Jobél is heart-broken. She hasn't played, romped, wrestled, chased and been chased up and down the hallway or had someone to share kitty-style grooming since then. **NEWS FLASH** Mom found Jasper a male Manx kitten and Jillian his Manx mother on Petfinder.com. Jobél is looking forward to their arrival on Sunday evening July 22. They are being transported by volunteers all the way from Parkersburg, WV. Oh Happy Day!
Bio:
Jobel is a Hebrew root word for Jubilee. Jobél was born in 2000 which also was a Jubilee year. The mom and litter were found on Bell Street in Ottawa, so that had to be included in her name. Originally I had thought of Jubilee but Jobél was shorter and unique to her precious life.

When we first joined Catster we were happy to join the group MANX BUTTZ administered by Dancin' Girl.
Yesterday her dear Mom lost her battle to cancer but we know she is now at peace and no longer suffers.
Cherri you will always be an inspiration to us all.

I didn't win the December 1st contest sponsored by the Humane Society where Mom got me but since it was so close to my Gotcha Day I thought I'd share with my furiends.
Our OHS pet adoption "tail"
Well let me begin by saying that I contacted OHS in October 2000 to find a Manx cat. So for our family, a “tail” is NOT what we’re looking for! We do have many tales though!
I was really excited to learn that a kitten “with no tail” was being fostered with her Mom and three sisters until the kittens were old enough to be adopted. I immediately said I was interested in adopting her. The foster Mom was kind enough to give me frequent updates on the progress of the little family.
On December 4 I visited OHS to meet my kitten. She was and is adorable. She is black and white with many tiny black spots so she is my “Dalmation” kitty. She also has a black nose in the shape of a heart! She truly is a sweetheart in personality.
I learned when I saw her intake information that the Mom and kittens were found on Bell Street and I wanted to include this in her name. It was also significant that she was born in 2000 a year of Jubilee. I decided to name her Jobél, which is the root word for Jubilee. I’m thankful for that special fact of her beginnings being in her records and now in her name.
Jobél came home on an OC Transpo bus and was silent until a few blocks from our destination. Then she let everyone know she was onboard! She was so tiny and could fit in the palm of my hand but she sure could “sing” with gusto!
Jobél is such a gorgeous Manx. She is a rumpie riser with no tail but when she’s really happy there’s a spot under her fur that rises up and down. So cute!
Jobél is also very dog-like in that she loved for me to toss a ball to her and she would retrieve it. She also LOVES peanut butter!
I adopted Jobél as a companion to an older Manx I had recently adopted. I had searched for a long time and now I had two Manx beauties to share their first Christmas with me. So many beautiful memories over the years and Jobél will always be my Christmas girl as she arrived to make our family complete.
Two years later we moved from Ottawa but continue to support OHS through donating our HBC Rewards points. I will always be grateful to OHS for the care that was provided for Jobél before I brought her home. Every time I purchase her food and other supplies I get to thank OHS all over again.
Jobél recently turned eleven and in three days we celebrate her Gotcha Day. If it weren’t for OHS I would not have her and thousands of her kitty friends on Catster would not have read her tale on Catster. She has the OHS logo on her page for all to see. Visit her at www.catster.com/cats/525354 and say MEOW!

OMC! My Birthday started out with me enjoying my all time favorite treat in the whole wide world -- PEANUT BUTTER!
Jillian let me borrow her Calvin Collar and I had my Birthday photo shoot. I was looking especially cute cuz I'm feeling really perky lately!
This prescription wet food has me much slimmer and my tummy disappeared! Mom is thinking she may try it! MOL
Later today we're going to celebrate with some Tuna Juice and maybe eat some Tuna too! Just a little bit.
Mom told me lots of purrsons are having a holiday today and some places have fireworks. Wow! Effuryone is celebrating with me!
*kisses to all my Catster furiends for sharing my Special Day with me*
