ROWEN
I am B-A-C-K.....Go ahead and ask about me before someone beats you to it!!!
Do you want to put a little spring in your step, some sunlight in your life? I am the man (well, kitty) to add some sunshine in your world!!! Kitchen cabinets fear me when I strut into the room. Fireplace mantles quiver when I look up at them, beckoning me to climb them. Toys go running back to the toy box.......Don't you need a little excitement in your life?
Please ask about me but, I need to stay within my transport range.
I am a flamepoint snowshoe, which makes me extra special!

Hi everyone! Monty is doing great and has settled right into his new home! Rollie (my lilac point Siamese mix) and I love having him here and he seems to be loving us too! He is very funny and cute and is a mischievious little (or big!) guy--he loves to climb up high and also has the nose of a bloodhound when it comes to food! He has taken pretty well to his leash & harness and has been enjoying beautiful sunny afternoons on the porch and front lawn with me and Rollie. Thanks again for bringing Monty into our lives!

TURTLE
Foster Mom says there is nothing not to like about me! I'm a love machine and give the best headbutts and I have a purr motor that won't quit! I chirp when I see the other kitties so there's no reason to think I can't live with other nice cats. What do you say? Why don't you get on my list so Foster Mom can update you when she learns new things about me?
Hope to hear from you soon!
Love,
Turtle

Turtle is one crazy love-bug. He is playful and learning to calm down and sleep on my chest. The resident princess doesn't like him yet, and he is also learning to respect boundaries. He really really wants to love up on her too :) He's all I expected and more. I adore him.

GEORGIA
"GEORGIA, GEORGIA,"
Yep, that's me, Georgia - just a little wisp of a sweet, sweet girl, fresh from the shelter and already purring and cuddling up a storm!
"THE WHOLE DAY THROUGH..."
Whole days and whole nights, too, I waited and waited in the shelter starving for love - now I'm ready to make up for lost time!!! Purr, cuddle, purr, cuddle, snuggle, snuggle, purr - I can't get enough! Haven't been here long enough to tell foster mom much else about myself but I've definitely got the purr-cuddle-snuggle business down pat.
"JUST AN OLD SWEET SONG..."
(I think that lyric would sound better as "just a young sweet cat...")
"KEEPS GEORGIA ON MY MIND."
I don't wanna be on your mind, I wanna be in your LAP!!! Get your mind on the "Ask About Me" button and that's where I'll be, real soon!

Notes from Home
Georgia whom we affectionately call "G"gia is enjoying having the full run of the house. She comes downstairs early with me as I prepare breakfast for the Inn guests. She walks the 1st floor to make sure that nothing has changed and then she sits in her window perch while I cook. She loves people and doesn't accept that eveyone doesn't necessarily love her. She greets guests at the door and when they sit she is immediately in their laps. She and her side kick Shambe' love to help me clean the guest rooms. The folks at the Vet love her. She has a cute squeek and can be very vocal especially when she wants something.
10/9/09 - Wow time flies when you're having fun! I didn't realize until I got the e-mail marking Georgia's 6 month anniversary that it had been that long. It seems like she has been here forever. She is such a great kitty. We haven't had any problems with her at all. She gets along great with her kitty siblings Ronald and Shambe. Georgia is a very affectionate kitty. She loves everyone. She likes to spend the mornings sitting in the recliner on the screen porch watching the birds. Where ever I am she is not too far away. Often times when I am cooking dinner she is laying in the chair having her afternoon nap. She sleeps with us at night and likes to drink water out of a cup on the nightstand before she goes to bed.
1/18/10 - We just celebrated our 1st Christmas with Georgia. She was a barrel of fun. We were a little worried about the Christmas tree and whether or not it would survive the 3 cats. We survived with no drama. Georgia loved resting under the tree, especiallly when the lights were on. She got a real kick out of the tree skirt. She found out very early on that if she ran and hit it just right that she could slide. That produced nighty kitty antics. They weren't very happy when I put gifts under the tree which prohibited the daily kitty skate olympics. :) She is still the sweetest cat that I have ever seen.
5/4/10 - We celebrated Georgia's 2nd Birthday yesterday. She enjoyed a relaxing day from the bed to the screened porch. She is still quite the hostess with the mostess as she is interested in greeting all of the guests that check into the inn. All of her vet visits have been a breeze. Shortly after celebrating her Gotcha Date last month she and sister Shambe had a date at the vet for their annual physical and dental cleaning. They both have swatches missing on their front leg. She has been very motherly lately taking care of her brother Ronald as his visit to the vet for dental cleaning wasn't such a breeze. He had to have all of his teeth on the right side removed due to gingivitis. None the less they are romping the inn and enjoying the breezy days watching the birds and squirrels from the screened porch while I do all of the hard work :)

SHIMEE
I am so sweet and so loving that Foster Mom thinks I should be clonned. What in the world is a clone? I'm one of a kind, a lynxy-tortie type girl. My pictures just don't do me justice. I'm quiet and just love being in the same room as my humans. I don't need to be on your lap every moment but love to cuddle and watch TV. I have great habits, I haven't scratched on anything here yet and my litterbox manners are top notch. I get along with the other Meezers here but needed a long introduction to really get to know them. Any room at your home for a one of a kind girl?

I don't know if there's a better place. . .somewhere where I could be more happy. My meow-my was just informed that it was 5 years ago on Sunday that I came to live with them. And a lot has happened since then. First came the woofer and then a kitty friend for me.-- Sunee another Siamese who looks like she could be my twin. And and just recently another Meezer girl who loves to play with me--a seal point named Safia. We are one big happy family and I love being the matriarch of the bunch- overseer of everything that goes on from my perch. Yup, life is good!

Smitty visited the Vet for a checkup in March 2009 which coincided with a followup he was having for a left eye discharge (ended up being just spring "cat season" issue) as he watched the activities go on outside with all the birds and such. He is doing very well and enjoying his home so very much.

OSBOURNE
Hi folks! Settling here nicely but I really want to be outside but that's against the rules. Oh and I'm a little over a year contrary to the initial report and I act my age or YOUNGER!! Ever had a kitten? Well adopt me and you'll know what it's like to have one. I'm everywhere (including your lap) and into everything so be prepared to "Osbourne proof" your house for me. Foster Mom can tell you what I'm talking about and it's not a bad thing but a FUN thing! Are you ready to have some FUN? If so, I'm ready too!!
Love,
Osbourne

Notes from Home
040410 - The following posts are copy and pasted from emails that I have sent to Kathy, folks in the Meeser Express and to Peggy, in an attempt to bring everyone up to date on the entire process.
032010 - We arrived at the home destination around 7:20pm. Construction on I495 screwed up my GPS directions and I missed a turn for I295 miles before I needed to get off and ONLY from a Local traffic lane. That put me on a course around the East side of I495 and a little bit longer journey. Maybe that was meant to be since once on the Northern end of I295 traffic was stop and go a large portion of the trip. Once back in Baltimore, I promised to stop off so that my sister could see the newest addition to the family. He was a real character during the entire trip. The chatter only popped up from time to time, however, he pulled every last trick out of his book to get my attention. The two best trick were a long reach through one of only 2 of the larger openings in the carrier door in an attempt to tap me on the elbow that was resting on the arm rest (His front paw was out of the carrier well beyond his elbow). The other trick, he would grab on to the carrier door and use that to turn himself over, feet up in the air then lay there and wait for me to talk to him. I am sure he would have loved a belly rub at this point but driving made that a little bit of a problem. I was also amazed at his Houdini act after a visit with my sister. Somehow, he managed to get his collar off and then played with it the rest of the trip.
Since home, he has gone absolutely crazy with all of the new hiding places in my bedroom. He has also shown the playful side at home, but I will have to break him from biting on my toes....LOL!!! I have already been able to hold him like a baby which turns that motor on to run nice and loud. While in that position, he also likes to grab hold of the fingers with his sharp little teeth. It is amazing as well how much he is like our first Siamese that was put down several years ago. As I walk through the bedroom, he will grab to the ankles. I have already told my father he will need to be really careful once we let the little guy roam the house. The Siamese playfulness is clearly in this kitty's personality. I am really anxious to see how he handles having the entire run of the house, of course with another feline, Anna. So far, I have been amazed with his behavior. I left his carrier next to the litter box for now. He has been in and out of it several times this evening; maybe it is a safe area for him at this time. He has been bouncing around the room since released, but loves to hide under the bed just to jump out at my toes every now and then. Now that he has slept all day in travel, he will most likely be running most of the night. LOL!!!!
Anna, the Siamese with the current run of the house has not yet seen the new family member, but it seems clear that she is aware that SOMETHING is different.
Thanks to everyone who had a part in the transportation of the little guy! He will clearly be a bright and interesting addition to my daily routine.
032110 - Kathy, funny you should ask about getting any sleep the first night. I had started this email below before I got your email about getting any sleep:
Wow, what a first night for this guy in a new home. I put him in his bed that was sent with him, he smelled around and knew it was his, but didnt stay there long. Once the lights were off, he was in my face and his motor NEVER stopped. In fact he woke me up twice with the motor running. In my ear, it eliminates the 18 wheeler noise going up the main drag in front of our house. I bought a new computer desk that looks sort of like a hospital table that hovers over beds so that I could do some computer work in my bedroom during the next few days of adjustment. Last evening after sending your the email, he laid down on my bed and just hung his head over my leg I had to wake him up so that I could go to bed.
Currently, he is memorized by the traffic outside. I opened the window just a little and he has already perched there watching all the new sights.
He has already eaten dry food and has used his litter box.
I now have white hair over my blue comforter. Looks like he is losing his winter coat. I noticed the brush so it appears he has been losing it for sometime. Based on our other Siamese, he should eventually stop the shedding. Thats what they make those sticky rollers for I suppose.
I really appreciate all of the items in the Goodie Bag. I wont need to buy toys for a LONG time. When he gets out to the real world, he will be amazed with even more toys as Anna has a lot but seldom plays with them.
On a side note, two days ago, the spring pollen kicked up and is throwing my allergies for a tizzy. Once I get the spring stuff under control, I will be in much better shape!
Finally, his nipping and gnawing on fingers and toes ....is that just a young thing that with time will grow out of or is that a Siamese thing. Any ideas how to at least depress it a little?
040410 - Let me do this update a little in reverse, chronologically, so that I don’t forget to include this information. We have our first vet appointment scheduled for Friday, April 9 for his first general check-up and physical. When I made the appointment, I told them that info about the cat had been faxed to them already and they stated that have nothing. No problem! I have all the links and data that Kathy had sent to me from previous vet visits and I will simply print it out and take it along.
Keeping Ozzy quarantined from Anna was a real chore. It lasted a grand total of about 2 ½ days before he figured out how to get out of my room. Anna was a little help in that she had already learned to open my bedroom door from the outside and surprised Ozzy once or twice, sending him scurrying under the bed. During the night of the 3rd day, I hear my door shaking and rattling, which woke me up, of course. Before I could get to the door, I find Ozzy lying just outside my door, staring at Anna who is laying on the floor staring at him with about 6 feet between them. Fortunately, by this time, I was able to find that he had already used the litter box and was eating his food AND was a very active little guy.
Anna, being queen of the house, so she thought, has this muffled, under her breath growl with an occasional hiss that sounds really nasty (HAHA!!!) but never phased Ozzy at all. Since, they have chased each other up and down the stairs and around the living room in something just shy of a nor-easter. Frequently, the storm ends with Anna having her fill of fun and the normal under the breath growl and hiss. I told Peggy and Kathy that I was waiting for Ozzy to run past Anna and swat her on the butt. That has happened frequently in the midst of the chase. Anna either tires of the play or feels that further play is just totally unnecessary for the queen of the house.
Recently, I have been working 3 days a week. Those 3 days are generally 9 to 10 hour days. When I get home, about 9:30 pm, he is generally on a chair next to my father at the kitchen table. According to my father, he spends a lot of his time there sleeping from dinner time until I get home. When I walk to the door, it is not unusual to be greeted by a little of his talking. I finish my late dinner and he is sitting on my lap while I am checking email. If I get up from the computer, he is now stretched out on the chair and I have to get another chair OR as I sit down, he will jump in the chair behind me and wants to take 2/3s of the chair and graciously allows me to have the front 1/3 of the chair. It is not unusual for us to have a nightly tussle of whether or not he will get up on my computer table or not. A squirt pistol has assisted with that decision a little bit recently. A spray bottle has proven VERY effective in keeping him off the kitchen table. He got sprayed, maybe twice and now when he sees the bottle in my hand he goes scurrying or does not get up at all.
April Fool’s day we made our first trip to the shore. Normally the trip is a 3.5 hour ride to my Eastern Shore home stopping only for personal rest stops (food and bathroom)/leg stretching/gas, etc. This trip took about 5 hours as I had pre-planned to briefly visit with my aunt in the nursing home before leaving the Baltimore area. This was the first time we have traveled with him since bringing him home on March 20th. The ride from home to the nursing home was a little noisy (about 25 minutes). Found out that my aunt had left the facility for a doctor’s appointment so we didn’t stay but a few minutes. Before putting the carrier back into the car, I rearranged the back seat and stacked him and Anna on top of each other. Once he was up so he could see, he laid down and I heard very little from him the rest of the trip.
Since arriving at the Eastern Shore home, Ozzy has been more fascinated than a 3 years old with an Easter-egg hunt. LOL!!!! He is finding sooooooo many more hiding places with a second home to live in. He is amazed with the noises of the birds he is hearing from the screened in porch area and even more places to hide out there. He has also found that I have vertical blinds that make interesting places to play hide and seek.
When he is not sleeping, in addition to hide and seek, pester his adult family and chase the house queen, Ozzy has found a lot of fun times playing in a nylon tunnel I found for him at the local Walmat store ($7.98 for all the fun he has had), chasing any wand we pick up OR chasing in circles after the little red spot on the floor that never stops moving….haha!!!! We found a SmartyKat Loco!Laser at the Walmat for $4.00, another cheap investment to drive him LOCO!!!!!
Long story short, I must tell you that is this kitty is over a year old, I will eat my fingers instead of letting Ozzy eat them. HAHA!!! I am not upset at the difference in the age, if fact it’s kind of kool. He is constantly nibbling on fingers or toes. He will start off with a heavy duty licking with that rough sandpaper tongue of his and then when he thinks he has put you to sleep or you aren’t paying attention, he will get a little rougher. He has learned that when I say STOP he goes back to licking or dashes off only to return a few minutes later purring his little heart out. He LOVES to play hide and seek when I am making the bed. It ok when you know he’s there, but often times he will appear to leave the bedroom and then come back under the bed and surprise me. Is not nice to fool people!!! LOL!
It is absolutely amazing how many personality traits that this kitty has that mimics the seal point we had to put down 5 years ago due to kidney failure (1 ½ months after mom passed – he was her cat). We hold him like a baby and he purrs his heart out, chasing feet, chasing the laser pointer, I have to fight him off to get into my bean bag chair (he likes to sleep there), and on and on and on. My father has even commented that he has far more personality that Anna, but Anna is still her little Queen!!! LOL!!!
Thank God for an Easter Sunday with lots of free time; that time allows me an opportunity to write this long update for you. Ozzy has become a very interesting part of the family in just 2 weeks. After a very stressful close to 2009, it is so much fun to walk into a room with a kitty who is just looking for ALL the attention you can give him while he is awake.
Have a VERY HAPPY Easter/Holiday weekend!!!!!! Thanks for the help from each and every one of you in Ozzy’s adoption!
040910 - Ozzy just came back from his first vet visit at 9:30am this morning. The little boy is getting to be a big boy already. The vet weighed him in at 7.75 pounds (only about a pound shy of his 5.5 year old "sister" Anna) of squirming kitty flesh. He was squirming so much, the vet could hardly listen to his heart with the stethoscope. Vet says he is in great health and was amazed when I told her that he was originally a stray. Ozzy made a big hit in the office. The vet assistant who checked us in told the rest of the staff about the really pretty kitty and many other staff members had to see him before we left office. The entire staff was amazed that he was a stray but they LOVED his color marking!
041910 - Of all the fantastic and realist information provided for me regarding Ozzy, there was one thing that was omitted. Ozzy has become the purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrfect alarm clock. He has successfully awaked me now as early as 4am, 4:15am, 5:20am and as late as 6:20am. My normal alarm clock time is between 6:30 and 7am so 6:20am is good; too bad that has only happened once. Obviously, he thinks that everyone sleeps when he sleeps. HAHAHA!!!!
We have taken two trips to the Eastern Shore. Both trips, as long as he can see who is in the vehicle, he rides VERY well. If he can’t see us, he is talking/crying constantly. Once at the shore house, he loves the screened in porch. I am waiting for him to have a conversation with the local bird families; I know it is only a matter of time.
Since he was adopted, he has learned a few tricks. He is now dancing really nicely with the help of this little red dot that just seems to chase him all over the room. He has also learned how to slide through a 4 foot long nylon tunnel trying to catch up with that red dot that just appears out of nowhere but always tries to run over his feet. Whenever he sees it in the tunnel, he will start to run and then slides the rest of the way. Amazing how hard we have laughed while he plays with the laser pointer.
050210 - Ozzy is GROWING like a weed! I still agree with Kathy, he was considerably younger than was originally thought, but that was fine for me. He and Annie are getting along, in fact, this morning, I watched Ozzy and Annie lay side-by-side on a clothes hamper looking outside (first REALLY warm weekend to open windows). Ozzy went to put his paw on Annie and she sprung up and "boxed" him with a left jab, and a right hook and took off running. Ozzy laid there wondering what the heck just happened (LOL!!!!) Ozzy has clearly gotten the "lay of the land" in the month he has been here. He will go from one thing to another with the look in his eyes "what can I get into next?”. He still loves to nibble on fingers or ears and even got my sister's nose last weekend. He doesn't bite hard, just enough to let you know that he has nipped you.
Ozzy has been to the beach twice so far; once with Annie and once solo. The weekend of the solo trip, my father called me to tell me that I would have to leave Ozzy home the next time for Annie. Annie was roaming around looking for Ozzy the entire weekend.
Have a great week!
Chuck
