Meet Some Friends

On Saturday, Mommy and Daddy took Samwise and went to a gathering at Uncle Dave and Aunt Susan's house. We asked Mommy to take some pictures of the new kitties Aunt Susan is handraising so that everyone can see them. She also took some pictures of two of our cousin cats so that you guys can meet them too! We'll start with the alpha kitty of the house!

Meet Quasimodo! He has a great story. Years ago, Aunt Susan was working at a local animal control and she was given the sad task of euthanizing some animals. When she entered the room and looked in a cage, she saw a grey and white ball of furr and infection. There was something about the kitty that she just fell in love with and she decided then and there that she could heal the little cat and that she would adopt him too. That was the first time she saw Quasimodo. He's a Persian and everyone loves him. He is also the original pirate kitty because he only has one eye because Aunt Susan had to remove the other one when she first adopted him because he had an awful sinus infection that affected his eye. He just had laser surgery on his good eye to remove some benign cysts on the eyelid. He's such a great cat that everyone threatens to steal him. Mommy says if Aunt Susan could clone him, she'd be rich!
This is their only female kitty, Janette. Janette came to live at Aunt Susan and Uncle Dave's house after a neighbor found her when she was just a little kitty - about 4 weeks old. As a vet, Aunt Susan often has neighbors bring foundlings to her (that was how Mommy and Daddy first met Samwise) but Uncle Dave fell in love with Janette the minute he saw her. She is about three years old and as fiesty as they come! Now, onto the kittens!!
Here is the Tortie - or LK 2 as Mommy and Aunt Susan are calling her. Like her sister, she is about 4 weeks old. Though she can eat stinky goodness, she still prefers kitten milk.

And here is LK 3. Like her sister, she is female and is actually the stronger of the two. She eats better though she will not say no to kittne milk. Mommy helped to feed her and says she eats like a pig! Both kitties are very very sweet and need good homes. If you know anyone who is interested, please let us know. We live right outside of Atlanta so definitely let us know if you are interested and in the area! Thanks!!

Oh another Tuxie! Quasimodo looks like they type of kitty that you could just pick up and cuddle!

It's a good thing that we live so far away - or Mommy would steal both those little kittens. She said the tortie looks like a match for Pearl - and she could have "bookends" - what ever that means?!

Hello My Sweet Pirate ManCat - I hope you had a wonderful weekend, ours was dreary and rainy - but we got lots of cuddle time, so that makes up for it a bit!
Purrs and Nosekisses,
Your Pearl

Quasimodo looks absolutely as sweet as can be. We are sure he knows that your Aunt Susan saved him and is so grateful. Oh those kittens look so darned cute! It's a good thing Momma isn't really close....

What great kitty cousins . . . and the kittens look sweet! It's a good thing our house is already full of furries, because otherwise mommy would be horribly tempted to add more after seeing those pictures. Good luck to LK2 and LK3 on finding wonderful forever homes! Purrs!

Colby and Cheddar said...

Mom just wants to hug and snuggle Quasimodo! And your pretty girl cat could be on a calendar.

We thinks Mom doesn't need any more kittens, so we tried to keep her from looking at the pictures, but she did, and of course she oohed and aahhed over them. Disgusting. She has us, doesn't she?

Guess they are kinda cute, though...hey, there, little ones!
