We have a new member to our home! She's a pound kitty - truly a pound kitty as she was born there. (Around here, we call it "The Pound". Where ever you're from it may be called ASPCA, Animal Control, Humane Society, etc..)
I wanted a little white one. She's close enough:
Prudence aka Prudy
She's 4 months old and has my heart already.
I wouldn't say that our 11 1/2 year old Zoe cares for her the same way:
Zoe aka The Cat from Hell
Zoe has made clear in hisses and guttural growls exactly who's the Queen in this house. She's very indignant. Like it wasn't bad enough when we brought Winston, our 12 year old Dorkie, home 10 years ago! We have the nerve to bring in a PYT?! (Ha! Who remembers that song ;-))
Zoe was a street kitty. My oldest found her in a parking lot on September 9, 2011. She barely fit in your hand. As you can tell by her coloring she is quite a mutt. The feral never left her despite our efforts to socialize her. She is known by all as The Cat From Hell.
That cat whisperer guy on TV, he'd NEVER break Zoe, that I'm sure of.
I doubt Zoe will ever like Prudy, but I'm sure at some point she'll adjust and tolerate her the same way she learned to tolerate Winston and the rest of us.
Hi Sheila! Love your sweet cats, Prudence (sweet name, too) and Zoe. Don't they all have their own personalities. We had a cat with coloring like Zoe, there's something special about those Zoe cats. My daughter and I have special places in our hearts for them.

Hi Cindy! Thanks for your reply and being my FIRST follower!!
DeleteMy son and his girlfriend also have a "Tortie" named Thumbs (she has extras). You are right, they are special and we love them, too.
You are a very talented artist and I look forward to reading more of your adventures as well.
