I am SO not ready yet for another kitty...I never wanted a cat in the first place, he adopted me.

So, if and when I'm meant to have another one, it will have to happen the same way. One of the neighbor's cats visits me often, he's a little slut, can't get enough attention. I think his name is Kookaroo? At least I thought that's what the lady said - she lives 2 houses down and we were talking across the yards and driveways. She's got several cats and she calls them all in for feeding time.

They do know you rescued them and I don't think they ever forget. My roommate and I may be moving to another place. If we do, I may talk her into getting a kitten.

I agree, he can breathe a sigh of relief now knowing you have a little kitty to love.

Both of my cats are rescue cats...they do love for a lifetime. My girl, Madde, was given to me at 3 weeks. Her mom was hit by a car. I bottle-fed her with vitamin supplements but, since she didn't receive her mother's milk, she is unusually small. She is approx 6 years old and weighs 2 pounds if I put my big toe on the scale with her. Animals are such a joy and it pleases me we have so many animal lovers on The Ledge.

I haven't had time to upload more pics as requested, but I will. Mrs. Bouvier is scomging around, they were playing this morning, although it's still a bit tense. (Wow - I can sense kitty tension? freak...) Bubba is now allowed to sniff kitty's butt, but only for a few seconds & then it's cruelly taken away.

I'll tell ya, it's a trip to see a 75 pound dog back away in fear from a 3 pound cat.

They will be best friends before long.

sooo cute...my dog recently ran crying away from a 9 week old pug puppy

And poor thing - doesn't realize cats don't want to play with her...she has no social skills...my poor dog.

Don't think I've ever told you - but Mrs. Bouvier? BEst. Cat name. Ever!!!

Thanks!

We got her name from that episode of The Simpsons where Grandpa wants to marry Marge's mom, but Mr. Burns does too. They do the ending scene from The Graduate, but instead it's Grandpa yelling "Mrs. Bouvier! Mrs. Bouvier!" We usually call her Boo.

Cosmo, btw, was for Kramer on Seinfeld. Bubba came wto us with his name, but it suits him well.
