"I love my new Tranquility Blanket!!! Hazel Lucy's mommy makes these and they are so snuggly! I claimed this one for my very own as soon as it arrived. Purrrrrrr!!!!"
"My name's Seven. Yes, it's unusual, but if you'll read my story, you'll find out how I got my name. I love to find soft, comfortable spots to rest."
"I have a new sisfur! Her name's Darcy and she's a tortie, just like me. Now if I can just figure out why she's in the trash can..."
"It's time to get up? But I wuz sleeping with brofur Bo and brofur Shamrock. Just a few more catnap minutes, please, Meowmy?"
"Please, Mommy! Can't Alpha the Beta come out to play?"
Coloration: Tortoiseshell
Likes: Climbing her cat tower and sleeping on the highest shelf...cuddling first thing in the morning.
Pet-Peeves: Not knowing where 'her people' are in the house! Going to the vet...taking her interferon.
Favorite Toy: Her mouse maze. She loves it!
Favorite Nap Spot: Almost anywhere, but she loves her special cat bed.
Favorite Food: She prefers dry food, especially as she's gotten older. She loves cat milk, too!
Skills: Attacking feet under the covers at night - and she uses claws and teeth! Very effective! Turning the tables on brother Bo and chasing the much larger cat around the house!
Dwells:
indoors
Arrival Story: On 7/7/07, my husband went to the grocery store at about 11:30 PM. He was in the dairy section, next to an emergency exit fire door, when he was sure he heard the crying of a kitten. Being the soft-hearted man he is, he asked the check-out crew if they knew of any cats around. Teenagers being teenagers, they weren't very interested, but shortly afterward, he saw two boys headed to the rear delivery docks, one carrying a broom. My husband drove around back, not wanting to leave a defenseless cat or kitten to face the broom-armed boys alone. Beneath a pallet, they found a small kitten, no more than 4-5 weeks old.
Naturally, the kitty came to a forever home with us!
Bio: We named our new family member "Seven" because she was found on 7/7/07 - and she was certainly a lucky kitten!
Seven has been diagnosed with Feline Leukemia, like our Bo. It broke our hearts, but we are giving both kitties interferon and doing our best to keep them healthy and happy. We recently enclosed a terrace and made a screen porch where Seven and Bo can go and watch the world outside. We're hoping they beat the odds and live long, healthy cat lives.
Seven apparently used up her 'cat voice' crying to be found. She can't really meow, though she cried loudly enough to be heard inside the supermarket when my husband heard her! Now she 'chirps' and squeaks. Only very rarely, when she's very upset, will she manage a sort of meow. We think the chirping is cute!
Seven is usually the first to greet her mom when I get home. She is an expert ankle-weaver, which sometimes makes walking difficult. She takes great offense if I don't pick her up for a cuddle within the first minute of arriving home. Seven is definitely a cuddler!

I's so excited! A few days ago, Meowmy brought the cat carrier inside. Right away, all us cats could smell that there was someone new inside. I sniffed and sniffed but I'd never smelled that scent before.
Meowmy put the carrier on the couch and called us all over. We sniffed and looked and sniffed and looked. Way, way back in the corner was...a KITTEN!
I wasn't sure I wanted a new kitten in the house. Kittens is fun, but they's trouble, too. Meowmy might pay more 'tention to that kitten than to me! But Meowmy said the kitten had been 'bandoned, just like me, and she needed a furever home, like I had last year when I wuz 'bandoned. (Being 'bandoned is a very, very, very bad thing...the baddest thing ever!)
So I guess it's ok if this little kitten lives here, too. We gots plenty of room!
For two days, the new kitten stayed in another room, but we could smell her under the door. Then tonight, Meowmy let her meet us face-to-face.
She's cute! And she's a tortie, just like me! Meowmy sez her name's Darcy.
Darcy has white on her and more orange, but I thinks we still looks alike. She's awful little!
So we're now a bigger cat family, and I guesses that's okay. Meowmy and Daddy luvs us all, and every cat deserves a loving furever home.
