Delyte, glad you got a treat for Christmas, hope you are feeling better now. And you meowmy knows that all the "Fake Cat Aunties" are here for her.

Kaya, did you EVER get to play with those toys??? My cats would simply have found them and put them all over the house. Which is what they did with the ones they got for Catmas.

Pandora, sounds like you all have a full house....glad to read the kittens have adopted good people. May we expect photos of the new furry family members???

Boris and Gracie - have your pawrents returned? Hope they had a good trip, and Giada is well.

Val - how are you and our Tokyo Kitties doing? Hope all is well.

I think I'll have to make a couple of new pages here! Right now I am busy going through the 30 years worth of cat 'stuff' that came here; I don;t have the storage to keep it all so some will go to rescues.
Also forgot to mention, one of the new queens has SEVEN brand new kittens! That's quite a pile for a 6 pound girl. She had been bred when my friends still thought they had a few more months before having to leave, so I got her a bit early. Poor kitty is in the towel shelf with the babies--actually it's cozy and right next to the heating unit for the house, but I imagine guests might think it odd to have a momma cat locked in the bathroom!
Right now I'm so busy I just now noticed it's Wednesday, not Thursday, thankfully since I've got a cat show to vend/show at this weekend in Nashville, and I was panicking because the boys need baths.

This is Delyte. Help me, you can't imagine the torture she is putting me through! She bought me a dog sweater and is making me wear it! The humiliation, the constriction, the warmth ... oh, wait a minute, maybe this isn't too bad. But it's too tight--even I, skinny as I am, am apparently a medium. She says she is going to go and get another one for me tomorrow. It's supposed to keep me from pulling out my fur and being cold this winter. It *is* a beautiful color, turquoise, with my black fur.

Pandora, my person always kept the kittens shut in the bathroom, and when she was a kid she had a rabbit who spent time in the bathroom. [She would unwind the toilet roll and also ate some of the shower curtain.] Congrats on the kittens! Hope the mother cat is alright after delivering that huge load for her. Mother Nature certainly works in mysterious and uncomfortable ways.

[I had to take the sweater off as he would not use the pan with it on, even though it doesn't reach much below his waist. He certainly didn't seem to mind it too much, though, and it was too tight. We'll see if I can get it back onto him. Since it is supposed to be nearly 70 here by Saturday, even the cold-blooded old guy won't need a sweater for a while. I thought he'd like the sensation of being warm--it's a cable-knit turtleneck--and I guess he did. Any other kitties like wearing clothes?

Delyte's person - no suggestions from here, mine won't even wear collars. But did you try a baby size t-shirt, let us know how the larger sweater works. Too bad Delyte is not like "Luna The Fashion Kitty", that cat has more clothes than most human females!!!

Temps continue to go down and up here. Driving me CRAZY, since I am on meds following that procedure in October to help me wean off my hormone medications, so I alternate between chills and feeling hot. Sometimes I have to pick a cat off my lap because I am too warm, and neither the particular cat (or me) likes this.

I like clothes! I like to look at myself in the glass patio door when I have new clothes-mom says it always gives her a flash to the Petco commercial: "your pet knows when it looks good."

it started as a desperation ploy when I had psychogenic alopecia-fur is covered, fur cannot be yanked out. and it was getting close to fall, and I was bald...as it turned out, not only did clothing keep me warmer, it seemed to make me calmer. meditate

we DID finally get to play with the toys-and we got MORE toys! everybody got us toys! mom got us toys, Aunt Melinda got us toys, and Andrea got us toys. Andrea got us the most interesting toy-she got the idea from something mom got her human nephew for Christmas. (Andrea's human nephew...mom has no nephews or nieces, so spends money on Andrea's instead.) this toy is my new little friend. its' name is Zhu Zhu. the box says it's a hamster, but it's my kitten. what else CAN it be? it squeals and chirps and moves around on its' own, and has no fear when i pick it up and carry it around...it's my Zhu Zhu kitten!

(mom's note: they're supposed to be hamsters, but it's sort of ambiguous. different hamsters make different sounds. this one doesn't exactly meow, but I completely get why the cats are treating it more like a kitten than prey, and why Kaya as alpha and she-who-mothers everycat who passes through has adopted Zhu Zhu. she's protective of the little mechanical hamster, to the point that she intervenes if the other two play too rough with the 'kitten'...big laugh )

Kaya, it sounds SO cute, you "adopting" the Zhu Zhu hampster. I have a little stuffed cat that "meows" when you squeeze it. When Daddy was in the hospital shortly before he died in August, 2004, he kept asking if I could bring Maggie (our white, fluffy cat) to stay with him in the hospital. Of course I could not but found a stuffed white cat that "meowed". Brought it to him in the hospital and he kept it in his bed at all times and showed it to everyone who came into the room. Of course I lost it in Katrina, and was happy to find another one. The cats run all around trying to "find the other cat".

We want a photo of Kaya taking care of her "kitten".

Marzipan

The sweetest- little brat :)

And a wild Marzipan appears!

Sorry I keep disappearing for such long periods. I have missed y'all and hope everyone is doing okay!

Marzipan and I (along with my new service dog Leon) are just about all settled into our new apartment --still have some unpacking left to do.

Marzipan just turned 3 years old on Monday --and got a whole pack of 8 of those plastic balls with bells that she loves so much!smile

I didn't graduate with my M.S. like I was supposed to this semester --had a good GPA, but didn't pass one of the three sections on my comprehensive exam. And that was my third try, so I don't get any more chances. So trying to figure out where to go from here --looking into another program and meeting with the adviser sometime in January to talk about it.

I haven't made a page for Leon because I'm not active on Dogster anymore, but here is a link to the Walgreens album I have with some photos I have of him:
http://photo2.walgreens.com/walgreens/fe/p/dasta/Main/AlbumID=102839 39005/a=14668956_14668956

I will put up some updated photos of Marzipan on her page soon.

No word since about September on Cecil --Carlos at the Little Woman Home for Animals said he is doing fine --that is all I know. I still miss him terribly.

Yes, we want to see new pictures of Marzipan! I love the patched tabby pattern she has.
We are glad Delyte is getting some warm weather just like we are. There are 4 old furts among the refugees, and they are enjoying the sun in the windows. I am especially glad to see the oldest girl feeling good. Before my friends got her, she was in a bad situation, and has never gotten confident enough (in 13 years frown )to stray far from her (great big) cage. It is sad but I put the cage in my bedroom with a nice window to see out of and make a sunny patch, much like it was at my friend's house. The other kitts all pile up into baskets that I have in front of windows in the living room. There is so much loud purring going on I'll just about go to sleep if I sit near them too long!

I have a page now! This is Pandora's brother, the kitty who goes to the shows with Rory. He is just a big old baby loaded with personality plus. never mind being way too cute for his own good. As for clothes--I dressed him as a king for a Halloween cat show, with a purple robe with the white "fur" around the edge, and a little gold crown. He got the prize for 'removing the costume the fastest", although he tolerated it until I put him in the show cage for judging. Sort of--see the pic on his page laugh out loud
Will add pages for some more later.

This is Delyte. I got another new sweater. It's purple and a size larger than the first one, so it even covers my bony hips.The neck is too large, though and I don't like it dangling when I walk. But I did like how warm it was when she tried it on me. It's been really warm and sunny here so even I don't need a sweater but it's only a matter of time before it gets cold and/or wet, and that makes me and my person ache. We will try to post a picture of me wearing it on my page, although Catster has not been letting us post any new pictures lately. My person says I look very handsome in my sweaters, but then she would, wouldn't she! big grin She does say that it feels weird to hold me in the sweater--she's never had a clothed pet before. Purrs to all and have a great 2012!! cat on moon
