Boy have they made themselves at home! When I sit at the computer, they climb up my leg, sleep in the sun under the skylights in my studio, and scratch at the door when I put them out. Lucy loves them too, new toys. I caught her dragging one across the patio by the ear, (just playing, but kinda rough) and I hollered at her. She let it go, but it just turned around and went back and rubbed up against Lucy like they were best friends and lovers. They must be some grateful kittens to put up with that crazy pup! |

I am so glad that they are adjusting to life with you so well! It sounds like you have 2 more adoring fans and gratefully kitties are sweet pets :)

Hi Sherri, I've always believed that rescued dogs/cats know they are getting a second chance at life. All of my cats and one dog were strays--either they crossed my path or I adopted them from our animal shelter. It's wonderful those cats found you--sounds like it was meant to be for you to have the cats and the cats to have you!

Our cat Max was a drop off by someone 4 years ago. He is the nicest cat I have ever had. We lived on 3 acres in the middle of a city but had a barn and people would always drop of their extra pets. We always found homes for them but Max we just had to keep after we found him fast a sleep in my husbands helmet.
I too liked Lost and Found for names.
Enjoy your new family members you saved them from maybe being someones dinner or other cruel death.

I have a kitty story already. Yesterday I went to get some groceries and decided to switch things around and let the doxies stay in the garage and the kitties in the backyard. Our backyard is completely fenced with 6' high solid board fencing, and concrete underneath it, so no escape routes. Now I know kitties can climb, but they ususally sit by the back door when I let them out. Well, long story short, when I got home they were nowhere to be found. I called them and called them and they were not showing up. I was heartsick, but I couldn't find them anywhere. Well, about 1/2 hour later, the doorbell rang and it was a man from across the alley asking if I had two little kitties. They had climbed up the rosebush that comes over the fence, and into the fir trees that line the alley and then down under the trees. I went out to get them and had to crawl under the trees and pluck them out - they weren't coming out on their own. But, they are safe and sound again, and I won't let them out there when I leave again, until I know they are capable of finding their way back over the fence if they go exploring!! |

So Sherri, What did you end up naming your two furry escape artists?
