We Have A New Family Member?????

Janet · 10-06-2011, 05:22 PM

We had a kitten show up a few weeks ago out of the blue. Not sure if it was dumped or why it showed up. It was skinny and scrawny so we fed it what we had.....dog food. It wouldn't let you get near it for anything and would jump at the slightest sound. After a week or so it took off and we thought that was the last of that.

Well, we heard some meowing at the front door and sure enough the same scrawny kitten was back, so we got out the food bowls again and the dog food. It's been here ever since. Ricky finally got it (I think "it's" a "her") to let him pet her and then a few days later was able to pick her up. Now she is friendly with everyone...even Brenna. The other dogs would probably kill her. Anyway, we ended up buying some cat food so it would get the proper nutrients and she's doing really well...not looking near as skinny and scrawny. Here are a few picks of her.... I think she's a Calico...but not sure....I really know nothing of cats.

What a pretty kitty! I'd say you definitely have a new family member. Have you named her yet?

Aww, she's so pretty. I grew up with kitties although my mom never knew

We haven't named her yet..lol. Ricky suggested calling her Calli or Bonnie, me....I just call her Kitty. She really is pretty,but I'm just not a cat person. I don't really like all that rubbing up against me and trying to walks dangerous.

She is so beautiful, Janet! I am a cat person. I like Kitty. It's a good name for a cat...why not? Are you going to let her inside? Litter is messy, and the yorkies would probably think it's a great place to play!

If not, is there a warm place she can go inside in the winter?

I'd love to have an outside cat here, but there are coyotes down the mountain. I would worry too much. I don't see any cats around anyway.

Good luck with Kitty!
