I want i siamese but whenever i bring it up my husband insists he will not pay money for a cat when everywhere you turn people are throwing kittens at you lol. I see his point but geez they are so worth it!
Moo has quite a unique story to go with him. We actually found him! We haven't paid a dime for any of our cats. All 4 of them were 'adopted'. Moo was found in a parking lot (we did search for his owner... for months. I guess somebody dumped him after they got tired of his antics), Sniffles was a farm kitten, Inky was adopted from a coworker's brother (or else would've been dumped in a shelter) and Mister Finck was born in a wood pile on a family friend's farm (he was nearly killed by her dog who played with him like a kitten squeaky toy. He had air pockets under his skin and a punctured lung. Nobody could afford surgery for him :'( they expected him to die, made him comfortable expecting the worst, which never came. Almost 8 years later he's my spoiled little boy. He gets away with murder and knows it.)
Only one of my birds is adopted. I adopted my Dusky from the South Jersey Bird Club's treasurer who runs an adoption for unwanted birds. She happened to be one of my regular customers who discovered I liked birds, gave me her card, and a couple months later I contacted her and adopted my Kayak
In the future I will attempt to adopt an animal before I buy one. I won't lie, I'm not upset I bought the other birds. They're amazing animals and make me happy. I just want to give an unwanted animal a forever home in the future.
Ok, ok, ok. I can't help myself. I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE my cats and I have to share some of their better pictures with you guys.
Because everybody loves my Moo Moo here's some of him:
Have you ever been so tired you fell asleep on your face?
So, we're a weird family and Moo likes to sit at the table with us. This was the stare down with my brother's ex-girlfriend. (shame, I really liked her too lol)
Yes, he has a bib.
I don't have very many nice pictures of Mister Finck. He doesn't take nice/funny pictures ever. This one is called "stackable cats" (I think everybody should have stackable cats)
This is Inky. He is very fat.
He likes to wear bandanas for the holidays like a dog would.
He also has a lot of funny hats and outfits to wear. He's a very good sport. (also takes very funny pictures)
This is Sniffles aka Mulch Monster. She lives outdoors when the weather is nice and sleeps in the gardens catching mulch in her very frizzy, very nasty fur.
We have to shave her every summer because her fur gets very matted. We figured if we have to get her shaved we might as well make it funny. We get the "Lion Cut" and take her to a dog groomer to have this done.
I'm done. My friends and family are very concerned for me and fear me becoming a crazy cat lady. I tell them that's impossible. Too many cats=bad environment for the birdies. 4 is enough for me.
He's a Lilac Point Siamese and totally cross eyed. He's always happy whenever somebody is paying attention to him. He's so tuckered out from the bandaid abuse that he's snoozing on the couch next to me.
