We adopted two new members of our familySoFarWe adopted two new members of our familySoGood
I am no longer cat-less!
Last night we went to an animal shelter located near us and we were adopted by two cats. I was walking around the cat room where the cats roam free and a cat (left pic) jumped on my shoulders and refused to get down. I asked the staff which cats did the cat on my shoulders get along with. I was told the cat in the right pic came in together. Both were extremely affectionate at the shelter and now at home they are always purring and or underfoot as they follow us from room to room. When I filled out the the adoption forms, I found out they were 2 & 3 yrs old. There were plenty of kittens but I wanted to give the adult cats another chance. So far, they are wonderful cats except I found they counter & stove surf. That's a habit we definitely have to break. FAST. They give very wide berth to the dog and just watch her from afar. The cats have names now. The left pic is of SoFar and the right is of SoGood. Together, they are SoFar SoGood

Glad your adoption turned out so well.....

When I saw the picture of SoGood I thought "phantom of the Opera'.

It's wonderful when they blend in so well with existing members of the family immediately on arriving home. Wishing you many years of happiness & enjoyment with SoFar & SoGood.

The cats are quickly settling into the family routine and have shown themselves to be very affectionate lap cats. Thank goodness they no longer counter-surf. Thank you for all your encouragement and kind words.

Bless you for adopting adult cats. They are gorgeous!

Does SoFar have a split personalty? We used to have a calico with a similar line down her face. A vet tech told us cats like that tend to have split personalities. Our sure did!

So far, SoFar doesn't have a split personality but she is tons of fun. Time will tell.
