Arrival Story: My first Russian Blue, Felix, passed away on March 30, 2009, after a lengthy illness. After a week of major guilt over wanting to adopt again after my grief was so new, I found a Russian Blue kitten named "Teeny Tiny" on the Bideawee (in Manhattan) website.
I called immediately, only to find out that he was on medical hold. I was, however, permitted to go in to meet with the ktten just to see if we were compatable.
That very first night, I fell in love, and I fell hard. Coopurr jumped into my lap and didn't want to leave. He gave me kisses and nearly fell asleep with his head on my leg.
For the next month, it was back and forth. I'd visit him as often as I could, and just kept hoping for some good news on his eye ulcers that just didn't want to heal.
Finally...on April 30 -- one month to the day of Felix's passing -- I officially adopted Coopurr.
After seeing a veterinary ophtalmologist over the course of the spring and summer, I'm very relieved to say that his eye has healed. In fact, he won't even need surgery!
Bio: Coopurr is named after CNN anchor extraordinaire, Anderson Cooper. They're both silver foxes, so the name suits him well. His full name is Coopurr Anderson Hays Vanderbilt Novak.
Coop is a very affectionate kitten, and loves to bite my hair, to lick my nose and to sleep with me every night.
His energy is astounding. He enjoys playing like a clumsy but tough little boy and changes his favorite toy every day. However, he perfers anything with feathers or any toy that remotely resembles vermin.
He's now settled in his forever home, and gets as much love as he gives. Oh, and he's no longer "Teeny Tiny"!

I was just looking at my page while Meowm's at work, and I think it could use a little updating. She has a couple of pictures of me when I was only six and seven months old posted up there! I'm a big boy now -- I'm a whole year old!
But you know what my Meowm does? She takes all these pictures, then leaves them in the camera for five years. Just like that commerical!
She just took some decent pictures of me a few days ago. And I must say that I look kinda cute. No costumes, clothes or collars. Just me. I was all snuggled in my bed, just lookin' happy like I always do.
She should really post those! **HINTITY-HINT-HINT TO MEOWMMY***
Now, I think I better go because my inner-clock is starting to warn me that she might be home soon-ish. And I don't want her to see me on the computer!
My Meowmmy is leaving. It's only for one night -- this coming Saturday. But this is the furst time since she adopted me that I will be left all alone for a whole night!
I don't know whether that makes me happy or sad. I mean, I can certainly play with the toilet paper while she's gone, and that will be so much fun. But I think I might miss her.
I mean...I have all my toys and stuff. And my Auntie Joyce is going to check in and feed me. But Meowm's just always there. She there to cuddle with. She's there to pet me. She's there to play cat dancers and laser light with me. She's there to rub my belly and call me Chubs...
So we had a big day yesterday -- it was MEOWLOWEEN! Meowm was very proud of me because the screaming animatrons didn't scare me one bit.
Not even the howling toilet paper dispenser!
In fact, I thought it was kinda cool. So after Meowm decorated the bathroom, I jumped up on the toilet and put my little paws on the toilet paper and did some decorating of my own!
Meowm thought that howling toilet paper thingie would terrify me from doing my job. But it just put me in the mood all the more! And if I must say so myself, the bathroom looked lovely...til Moewm cleaned up all the toilet paper that I strung everywhere.
Hope all of my fur-riends had a happy happy Meowloween!
