I found this site and I think it is hilarious. Lots of cute kitties. Warning - some of the captions can get a little rude.

Well, she is getting closer. I gave her some food and she ate it and ran away. This morning, she came looking for food and didn't run away when I put it on the plate. She kept her distance until I came back in the house. I sat on the other side of the glass door and that didn't seem to bother her. After she ate, she came up to the glass and just looked at me. I talked to her but when I opened the door, she took off. I say we are making process. She is just the cutest little fluffy thing! My son is in on the act now too and trying to get her to come to us! Now, if we could just work on my dh......

I am doing the same with an unneutered Tom. I believe he's feral. Since spring when he was a youngster I've put weight on him and he's looking primo. I need to trap him and get his 'boythings' removed so he won't get in fights and all chewed up. I feed numerous neighbors cats, but I believe he is the only one who is on his own. Bless his heart he's not into marking his territory...yet.

Aww..that is so swwet Mamie. My theory is this....if an animal shows up on your doorstep you then you were chosen to be it's mommy and you have no choice in the matter...DH will learn to love it!

I took in a feral Tom cat once....I was able to make it a pet, took it to the vet and had him nuetered and got all his shots, brought him home and he ran away.

Mamie -

Hope that you are able to get that poor kitty to warm up to you and come inside out of the cold. It is so sad that these kitties seem to get dumped by people that don't/won't take care of their pets. Like getting the mommy cats to the vet, etc.

I recently adopted a 4 week old to find a home for her. My cat just would not tolerate this little intruder so after 2 weeks I began the search for a great home for her. I can't believe how lucky we were. A couple in their 60's took one look at her and said she looked just like their GiGi. A dearly loved, passed on pet. They thought and thought and finally adopted her. I packed up her bed and toys and carrier and gave her to them without any doubts about her care. They were already discussing her trip to the vet and taking her with them when they travel to a family members for Thanksgiving. I just know that GiGi has found a great home.

Wish I had found this site before. Could have used your support.

I don't know what kind of progress we are making. The kitty comes everyday and eats and plays with our cats. She sits at the glass doors and looks at us but she will not let us near enough to touch her. We might have to set some kind of trap to get it.

Aww, that's sweet that she plays with your other cats...sounds promising. That first contact will be important. Maybe try to coax her with a treat or something now that she's taking food from the dish. Poor baby sounds so scared. I'm glad she found your house though.

We have so many cats around here I'm never sure if they are wild or belong to someone. Ours stays inside but there are 3 that hang around the front of our house pretty consistently. DH thinks they belong to the neighbors across the street.

Just had the dearest memory flash to many years ago. Muffy used to sit ALL day and watch the oven on Thanksgiving. She LOVED turkey so much she made the connection from the minute it was being fixed and put in the oven. She never watched anything else cook like that.

Come on cat lovers-

The dog thread is always ahead of us. We must have something to post about our kitties.

Mine has her Christmas stocking out and is ready to rumble.

Ok Granny, Couldn't resist posting a picture of kitty Lucy taking a bath...or maybe she's really practicing how to shake paws!

Well, we now have one outdoor kitten. She or he (we can't get close enough to find out) comes every night to my glass doors and waits for me to come and feed her. She runs to the side until I close the door and she then runs up to eat.

The continuing Saga of Doyle... There really isn't much to post - thank goodness! :) He's doing really well since we bought him the additional box & the cat tree. Things are going really well and "knock-on-wood" there haven't been any accidents for the past month!

As for his sister Willow, she's developed a new trick! She's a "kneader" and while she's kneading you, a drop of sweat forms on the end of her nose & sits there looking as if it's going to fall. It's the funniest thing!

I just love when kitties knead! Of course, not when you have thin pants on!

Mamie - both of mine have been declawed so there's no pain involved whatsoever. She's such a cutie when she's doing it, but her nose sweat dropped on me yesterday.

Hooray for the kitty thread. I knew you were out there.

Mamie - is that the same kitty we discussed a while back? If so, looks like it has adopted you. Bet eventually he/she will come to you for some good petting too. Hope so.

Lucy - your Lucy is precious. Beautiful, shiny coat.


Mamie and DJGirl - I have to trim my kitties nails.

Hi all!
Hope it's ok if i join. I'm a catlover (although "love" doesn't seem a strong enough word) and the object of my affection is named Cleo. Cleo is a boy and i know his name sounds to some like he should be a she, but i used to work with an older woman whose husband was named Cleo and i thought it sounded kind of cool. Actually, it's a fitting name because Cleo is more like a he/she. He's an equal opportunity cat in that he's not interested in other males or females. Completely autonomous all on his own. I'm the dependant one. He has us wrapped around his little paw and he knows it. The weird thing is i didn't grow up around cats, only dogs so i was completely taken aback when my ex brought my first cat home to be a mouser, and before i knew it.....BAM!!!! i caught "catlove" bad and never looked back. Once you get it, you get it for life. For me, every cat brings out oohs and ahhs. Truth be told, if Cleo brought home a paycheck....i'd have married him! And that's the awful truth. Do i need therapy or is this what every person owned by a cat feels?

Janfts-I'm so glad you joined in...and you're not alone in your love for your kitty. Cleo sounds like a wonderful cat, and I'd love to see a picture of him.

Mamie-Sounds like you and the kitten are going to be best buddies before long!

DJ-Glad Doyle is continuing to improve.

Hi Lostintheglades! And thanks Granny for getting us all started again!!
