Title: New kitty, maybe?
Post by: Hoppinchins on June 14, 2010, 02:18:45 PM
I may be getting another kitty. I have kitty waldo now, he's a year old. He turned one around the end of march. If I get kitty it would be waldo's brother or sister. They are about 6 weeks old. I'm waiting till they are able to eat solid foods. My friend said that i would get the female because it i get the male, they could be aggressive or territorial. I wasn't sure what people on here thought. It works in my favor because the female is cuter. The male is cute, but looks like waldo except he's black instead of gray. What is funny is that waldo will stick out his tongue sometimes and the male kitty does it do.

Yes I've had a few cats over the years and never seen any problems with the sexes.
Had 4 at one point, 2 of each.

My four cats our spayed and nuetered...I have dewormed the kittens and started their shots I am trying to find homes for them. When they are of age if they are still with me than yes I will get them spayed/nuetered...but I hope to find them their forever homes by then.....I am trying to find a cat rescue for them....but I only want a no kill one as I am very attached and would hate to think of anything bad happening to them.

The kittens are finally ready to leave. To me it felt like a long time. I'm hoping to get her tom. Waiting to hear back from my friend to see when a good time is! I'm soo excited. I can't wait.
Title: Got her! Need a name
Post by: Hoppinchins on June 22, 2010, 07:54:30 PM
We got the kitten on Sunday. Waldo doesn't like here yet. He hisses at her, but today by boyfriend says he hasn't heard him hiss, but he did swap at her. We are having trouble with a name. any idea? She is full of energy. Once she gets tired and lays down, dan picks her up and puts her in the cat bed and she falls right back to sleep, it is soo cute. She can already climb.
