Sept 30, 2007... My husbands 17 year old cat went missing.. it was heart breaking. we found him a few days? later curled up in a ball inside the barns(we never go in them..) To this day my husband still misses him. but also misses having a cat to cuddle with.. I ha my dogs he had his cat.. but for two years he didn't have his kitty.. in that time we had found shop cats, strays..ect and rehomed them a week later..
Although he had to spen a week with them.. he never had a one to call his own....
So this christmas i wanted to get him a cat.. Well three days ago i went to the city to go look at a grey dsh, and ended up i didn't have time.. I got a hold of the lady and said maybe another day. if i dont get in anytime soon and you find someone else, don't hold the kitten for us..
so i told my husband that i went in to get him a cat..
Well last night.. a lady posted an add around 12-noon, and it didn't show until around 5pm she saw it had finally been posted, and ten minutes later i go on the site not expecting to find a cat. so i emailed then called and turns out she only lives around 10 miles away. who would have thought. I told her i wanted two cats, so one could have a friend.. i liked the grey kitten(my fav color cat) and the black kitten (hubby's fav color cat) and she told me she has two greys, one just didn't make it for the picture. so that night we drove out to her place.. and here runs out 6 kittens.. 3 short hair 3 long hair.. the short hairs were mostly white with patches, and then the long hairs were 2 greys and one black...
After staying at her place for almost an hour(which we aways end up doing when someone invites us over...) she had told us the mother cat was a short hair, and was dropped off at their place when she was a kitten. they just didn't fix her in time. and had made an appointment shortly. The kittens were handled daily from the day of birth.. and extremely friendly. they just sat in our arms when we were there..
So we had a hard time trying to pick between the two grey kittens. one was darker then the other.. but both so sweet..
we took all three of em :lol:
