COCO
Hiya!
Lost my home because of the new baby.
But I'm here in rescue and looking for my new life!
I've got a gimpy rear end so get along kind of slowly so you'll need to have a pretty quiet place for me to be able to thrive. I'm really an affectionate girl so you'll probably like me!
I've told Foster Mom to get a video of me so you can take a look-see and you can decide if you think we'd be a good match.
For sure I am one pretty girl!
More later as I get the lay of the land here and tell Foster Mom more about me.

Notes from Home
Hello Everyone!
It’s hard to believe it’s been two weeks already since I added a wonderful new addition to my life. I’m the proud Meowmy of Coco and I love her with all my heart.
I want to start off by thanking everyone who was involved in helping bring Coco to me. To everyone I know about and all of you behind the scenes! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
To Donna, Harriet, Lois, Patricia, Suzie, Libby, Carol, Colby, and Lane; thank you so very much for helping transport Coco to Virginia! You are all amazing and so very generous to donate your time and resources to my sweet little Meezer.
The Meezer Express Rocks!
To Siri for having the insight to create such an amazing organization and to Emily for working out all the travel plans!
To Karen for talking with me and understanding what I wanted and needed in my life. For her encouragement to expand my horizons because without that I would have never found my precious little applehead.
To Donna for being Coco’s Foster Meowmy and taking such excellent care of her. I appreciate all of your tips and advice and all the information about Coco’s loves and needs so I can be the best Meowmy I can for her. You packed such a wonderful little travel bag for Coco! It shows how much you loved that little doll baby. You are a wonderful, thoughtful Foster Meowmy and all the little Meezers you care for are blessed to be a part of your home.
My heartfelt thanks to all of you.
Now on to the Update!
Coco was so scared from her travels. When I took her to her welcoming room with all of her things Donna sent and all of the goodies I bought for her she stayed in her clean litter box in her crate and was still and quiet. I left her alone to regroup and I would go back every hour to hour and a half to sit with her and talk to her. She was very interested in me and what I was saying and she kept her eyes on me the whole time.
It paid off because later that evening, she came out of her crate very slowly and she was so brave it made me cry. The level of trust she had in me to come out after all she had been through tore at my heart strings. I could see how badly she wanted to come out and trust me and be loved in her beautiful eyes.
She let me pet her, hold her briefly and we played a long time. She stretched and lounged around and really enjoyed being out of the crate. She ate and drank water with me there. I was so thankful she had shown me that amount of trust in such a short period of time. I knew when I saw that need in her eyes to be loved I was lost to her. She had me wrapped around her paws! I decided it would be my mission in our lives to make this little one happy in every way I could. For as long as we have each other she will be loved beyond measure and will want for nothing.
After our long play session that first night she had fallen asleep and I walked out and shut the door to let her sleep. I was in the den outside her room and I looked over and saw her peeping at me under the door. It made me chuckle and I went over to see her and she started meowing at me in that precious little voice of hers and talked me into coming in and sitting with her.
I petted and played with her for a few hours and it was well into the wee hours of the morning; and as much as I hated to leave her I wanted her to get some rest. I tried to leave a couple of times and she kept meowing for me to stay and I could not refuse her. So we stayed up super late!
The next day I left to door open to her room so she could venture out. She very slowly would come out a few feet if she saw me sitting and watching her. If I was not there she would not come out. That led to me walking with her to explore the house together. She was so sweet, oh my gosh that little doll baby! She would get in front of me and explore and turn around to look at me to make sure it was okay. I talked to her and we walked all over the house. Since that time she has been exploring at free will now!
She has started to run around the house now and it cracks me up! She sounds like a herd of cattle! She thumps and skids and just looks so happy! She’ll run a couple laps around the house and come to me and meow to be loved on. She purrs so loud when I pet her.
She has claimed a chair in my living room as her perch and she loves to sleep on the back of it. She likes to see the goings on of the house and keep an eye on me. She’ll follow me around if I stay gone for a few minutes out of the room she’s in.
She is learning the sounds of my home and it’s really amazing to see how fast she adapts to all the changes. She didn’t like the water running in the kitchen and would bolt and hide under my bed but now she looks at it with interest.
She is super observant of everything in my house. One evening I had the crock pot out and turned on and she had noticed something new up on the counter and she sat and looked at it a long time. Every time it clicked to adjust the temperature she would flip her ears. She will check out anything that is out of place and she will immediately notice something that is not where it was before.
I’m getting her used to me holding her so I’ll pick her up a few times a day and she’ll look at me really funny like what the heck? Lol And I’ll hold her until she meows to be put down.
She is finally letting me put her in my bed. She has started to sleep there while I am loving on her. She will stay there in my bed as long as I am in there with her. She won’t sleep in the bed with me yet but it’s a work in progress!
She has been eating and drinking very well and she is so faithful to use her litter box. She has not made any move to go outside it at all. She uses all the cardboard scratchers and her scratching posts any time she wants to scratch. She loves to be brushed and she lets me brush her every day.
This cat is so loving and has such a beautiful, sweet nature I am blessed to share my life with her. She is amazing and has so many aspects to her personality. I love getting to know her each and every day. She continues to wow me and woo me every time we get into something. I love her so much. I would do anything for her. She is a perfect cat.
As far as her gimpy little rear end; I could not love her more. She is so cute walking and running. When I hear her thumping around the house it brings a smile to my face.
I could say I am fortunate to have gotten her; all those other adopters missed out on a sweet, loving, well behaved girl.
I will choose to say she is meant for me and I am meant for her.
She has my heart in her paws.
August 26, 2014
Hello Everyone! I thought I would take time to update you on my sweet baby doll.
Coco continues to trust me more each day and I love her more every day if that is even possible. She is blossoming here and I am so very happy for her.
I love that she now knows this is her home and she can run and play anytime she wants, she can find special places that will be hers and nap anytime she wants and just be a happy, very much loved, adorable little sweetheart.
She has definitely chosen me to love and be her one and only which thrills me to no end! She won’t have anything to do with anyone but me. This drives my Mom crazy! She has been longing to get her hands on Coco.
I spoil her every time I look at her. I talk to her all the time and she talks back with the sweetest little voice ever. She continues to show me more of her personality each day. She is so very sweet, meek and loving. She is such a good girl. She never does anything she is not supposed to. I’m so proud of her. I love her so much.
I have found her favorite cat toys and bought her one of everything. She has scratchers all over the house and things to play with in every room. I make time for her any time she comes to me for lovies. I can’t say no to her. She is too precious. And she is the best little flirt!
I have put heating pads in the living room and den and she absolutely adores them. She will sleep and play on them. I keep them turned on all the time for her cos she has shown me she loves them so much.
She has been sleeping on my bed with me! She will cuddle me and mash her body as close to me as possible and it makes me smile every time I feel her snuggling in.
She has very cautiously started testing the waters of sleeping on me, lol. She is so heavy! I can’t say no to her so I let her walk on me and she’ll lay on me for a minute or two and lay down beside me. She will come up and touch her nose to mine and it melts my heart.
I just can’t say enough amazing things about her and how much I love her. She makes every day so much happier and brighter for me. She is a wonderful little companion and best friend.
I’m so happy she knows she has found a very loving, forever home in my home.
November 5, 2014
I thought I’d make an update on Coco to let you know what’s been happening in her life! It’s been a little over four months now since she has made my life so wonderful and came to live with me.
She has been doing so well. She has taken over my home; which is totally acceptable with me! =) She runs all through the house and plays all hours of the day and night. I hear her thumping and skidding and it makes me chuckle every time I hear her. She has little mice that squeak and she squeaks them all hours of the day and night playing.
I think she is finally realizing this is her forever home and she is very territorial. My mom brought her a Grumpy Cat stuffed animal on one of her visits to try and get her hands on her (which Coco will have nothing of, lol).
I will take the Grumpy cat and hold it and talk sweet to it and pet it and Coco gets so mad, lol. She comes up and will smack it in the face and start biting it and roughing it up, lol!
Then she goes to all of her places in the house where she has toys and scratchers and methodically check to see if anyone has been playing with her things. It cracks me up! She is such a funny girl!
She will also get up on my bed to see what’s happening in there and make sure there have been no kitties there. She’s like a little investigator. I could just squeeze her till she squeaks! I love her personality and her traits.
She sits on a perch in the den and looks out the windows most of the daylight hours. She will make little chirping noises when she sees the birds in the dogwood trees outside the windows. It’s so cute cos she’s not really meowing but it’s a breathy chirping sound.
She loves to see the deer come up to eat. She’ll start a soft meow and get very still and watch them fight and eat. She is completely mesmerized by anything she sees outside.
Today a flock of turkeys were up here and she was just beside herself. It’s so adorable I can’t describe how cute she is.
It is hilarious when I go to close the curtains at night. She does not like it at all. She will run to see what I’m doing and when I grab the curtains she’ll meow at me so pitiful and she’ll start boxing at me with her paws! Haha =) It’s hands down one of the cutest things I have ever seen in my life. She gets so aggravated when I do it and I feel so bad for her.
I try to open them at daylight for her every day and she gets so excited. She gets this little bouncy, prancy, sweet little run and she looks at me like I’ve done the greatest thing in the world by opening up those curtains for her. I love her so much I can hardly stand it! <3
She had her birthday on September 11th and we celebrated with treats and toys. She loves to get new things. She has the sweetest demeanor come over her. So I shower her with toys often.
Since Coco was a lifelong Floridian she will be experiencing her first winter here in Virginia. She had her first snow this past Saturday and she did not know what to think about it. She hopped up on her perch and saw these huge snowflakes coming down and everything was white and she looked at me like “what the heck!†lol! She immediately hopped back down and looked at me.
She still looks to me to make sure its okay for her to do things and if it will be safe for her to do it and I encouraged her to hop back up and check it out. She would hop up and look out and jump back down and look at me so funny. She did that three times before she decided it would be safe for her to stay there.
It was such a heart warming sight to see. I love her so much I can hardly stand it!
She is so well behaved and she never does anything she isn’t supposed to do. I love her so much I could just bust!
She is such an amazing little companion. She is always in the same room with me where she can look at me. She does not like to be alone so she is never far from my side.
She has started to lay on the back of my chair between me and my chair, lol. Her little body will get so hot she makes me hot, lol. She likes to kick her feet in my back too, lol! So I take it for as long as I can and then we have to move. She is so adorable.
She is letting me pick her up and carry her around now and I love it! I get to do it a little longer each time I do. She likes the higher advantage of checking things out so I walk her over to places and let her explore.
She is always in my bed with me when I’m sleeping. I gave her a fluffy soft quilt to have on my bed and she sleeps on her quilt every night with me. Sometimes I’ll wake up and she’s staring right in my face purring, lol. I put her quilt up by my head so I can always pet her and touch her. She likes to lay on my hand and arm and she will rub her head on me when she wants me to pet her.
I love her so much I don’t have words to describe. I can’t imagine my life without her. She has so much personality, she’s so fun, and she is very, very loving and sweet.
She is thriving here and she’s very happy. I do anything and everything she wants. She is spoiled rotten but she deserves it.

Hi Everyone! =)
It’s hard to believe it’s been six months since I got to bring my sweetheart home to love, adore and spoil. So the honeymoon is over! I could not be more happy and in love with my baby doll.
Coco is doing so well! She continues to be the love of my life and the apple of my eye! I love her so much I could bust.
She is literally the perfect little kitty. She does not have any bad habits. She is always such a good little girl. She loves all of her toys and scratchers and she plays with them all the time. I never have any problems out of her.
She has been such a cheerful little delight; I cherish every second I have with her. She is the sweetest little girl I have ever had. She’s so loving and affectionate. She is always by my side where ever I am. She loves to be touched and petted. She is always coming up to me wanting lovies and I always give her what she wants, lol!
She loves to watch tv with me. Anytime I have the nature and ocean shows on she is transfixed to the tv. It’s so adorable!
She loves it when I put a sheet or a quilt out for her to play on. I’ll spread one out on the couch or on my bed for her and she acts like it’s such a special treat! I could squeeze her till she squeaks she is so precious.
She will start chasing “something†and she will eventually end up chasing her tail and biting her back feet, lol! She cracks me up every time! It never fails to make me laugh and love her more than I already do if that is even possible.
We celebrated Thanksgiving with a deep fried turkey and I must say Coco LOVED it! I was thankful to have Coco in my life so we had a lovely thanksgiving.
Christmas time came around and we had a smoked ham and she loved that too!
Coco has really enjoyed the Christmas tree and has been playing around it and under it since it went up. Her eyes just glow when she gets near it and she gets so playful.
Coco got so many toys and goodies for Christmas! She was such a good girl she deserved all of them.
One of her absolute favorites was a SmartCat Ultimate Scratching Post. When I saw that thing I knew Coco would absolutely adore it. It is HUGE! 32 inches high. She climbs that thing constantly! I love to see her rough housing with it and swinging around on it, lol. She makes me laugh so much.
She also got a couple more of her favorite kickeroo toys. She got a few of the Yeowww cat nip toys and a few feather toys. She has been enjoying all of them and I love to watch her play. She got a new bed as well.
So Coco hit the jack pot from Santa! =D
It’s New Years Eve and I’m looking forward to the new year with my favorite little baby doll! I will love her, spoil her, care for her and do for her in any and every way to make her happy, content and make her feel loved. I love her with all my heart. She is the most special thing in the world to me.
Happy New Years Siamese Rescue! Coco and I will see you in 2015!
June 30, 2016
I can hardly believe how much time has went by since Coco came into my life. I knew as soon as I saw her in Donna’s video that she was meant for me. This little girl has changed my life so much for the better and expanded my love for her to greater depths every day.
I always look forward to seeing her run with joy to me when I come in the room as if I am the greatest person ever! She is such a sweet little flirty girl. She reaches out to me with that cute little paw and wraps me around it.
She has such an amazing personality and she shares it with me every chance she gets. She talks to me about everything and I listen as a good parent would. She gets mad and she’ll swipe her paw at me or she’ll try and nip at me letting me know her displeasure if something does not go her way. That only endears me to her more because she is so completely adorable when she is mad, lol.
I love buying her gifts; she gets so excited when she sees a new toy. It becomes her favorite for the day and then gets tossed around like the hundreds of others I have bought for her. My house looks like a cat house, haha! I don’t even mind; she has every right to have all of her little things that makes her happy around just as much as I do so we share (she owns much more real estate in my home than I do, lol). I used to be such a neat freak until Coco came in my life. I still am with my things but she gets to do whatever she wants with hers.
With her disability she does not hop on tables or counters but she will climb anything she can get her claws in. My furniture being the best thing she has ever had, lol. She climbs that couch like she’s an American Ninja Warrior! So for Christmas last year I bought her a floor to ceiling cat tree (it only took me an hour and a half to put it together). I thought it was super fantastic! I saw it and I said to myself as much as she loves to climb this will be so cool for her! Well ha! She has only ever been on the bottom floor and scratches those bottom posts, lol! She could care less for anything above it. So I have a fancy cat tree that never gets any use but it will look good forever I suppose! She also got some carpeted steps that lead up to my bed. It’s a super tall bed set and she was climbing it and tearing up the sheets and I was worried for her claws so I had invested in steps early on but I got her some new ones last Christmas and she loves them. She will climb them and she plays on them at night while I’m trying to sleep and I usually just wake up and watch her and then she hops on the bed for lovies.
So basically she rules in my life and I’m totally okay with that. I could not love anything more than I love her. She is the absolute love of my life and I do everything I can to make her happy. She makes me feel so good and brings tremendous joy to my life so I try and repay her as often as I can. She’s my baby girl and I could not live without her.
She’s put on some weight since I got her; she is somewhat of a food terrorist. She is extremely picky and she has a food allergy so her options are limited. Trying to get her to eat something I want her to is like negotiating a hostage situation. I always cave in. She is in a good place with quality royal canin food so it works out really well right now. I would love to get her back on wet food but she completely refuses it. I can always hope!
I turned one of my balconies into a bird sanctuary for Coco. She loves to look outside of her two big favorite picture windows in the den and see what’s going on outside. She mews and trembles at the birds, she scratches at the window and it just warms my heart. She wants to get at them so bad! So I have a nice set up with varieties of feed for all kinds of birds to stop by and say hi to her. She loves it and I have found that being a bird watcher is very relaxing. So we sometimes sit and watch them together. She mews about whats going on out there and I baby talk with her about it. It’s so sweet.
So for our anniversary this year I have nothing but good and loving news to report. Thank you again to everyone who helped get Coco to me. She is the most loved and dear thing in my life.
P.S. Coco says Hi Donna! She misses those sunny, warm winters in Florida.

I will send you guys another update soon!

BELLA
Hi, I'm Star.
I'm here at Meowmy's with my sister and two brothers. We came all the way from Maryland where
we were confiscated from a horrid hoarder situation. We spent weeks in the shelter with our mom growing big enough to come into rescue. We did get a shelter cold, but we're on the mend. We're tiny little babies so it will probably be mid to the end of November before we can go to our furrever homes.
10/05/15
Yah! We made it into the foster room and we are having a blast with more room to play. Our ringworm cultures were negative, we are over our shelter colds, we are eating like little piggies and growing big and strong. Meowmy says we are all little purr buckets and love to be cuddled.
She's going to start looking for the perfect home for each of us. It will still be a while before we are big enough to have our vetting done and make the journey to our new families.

Notes from Home
Star is doing well. We love her! Beau is anxious to get her, but we know he is very aggressive and wants to kiss her and then bite her. She's a trooper and is adapting well to her new family! She's a bundle of purr!
Bella is doing well...she still sneezes a bit, but she is a purrfect little kitten. She does think she's bigger than she is and goes on the attack on Beau and he is a big boy for 8 months old. I think he doesn't realize how big he is. Pictures will follow, however, I got a new phone and haven't been able to transfer the pics to my new phone as yet. Bella is just the sweetest little girl, until she decides it's time to "rumble" with Beau. We just love our little fur baby!
Unfortunately, our Bella developed FIP (which I understand her brothers were a victim of when they were 3 months old). Our hearts are broken. As four adults stood in the vets office crying our little girl was put out of her pain and misery on June 20th. We are so sad, but feel our little Beau is missing her tremendously. Therefore, we are now looking to adopt another baby girls. We are so heartbroken over this little lady. <3
Our little Bella is as beautiful as ever. She is such a little lady! She loves to be brushed. She's had a few visits to the vet as she continues to sneeze and still gets her runny nose. She gets a shot so no bacteria forms and we as her parents worry about her not getting out of this stage of sneezing and runny nose. It is worse in certain climates, if it rains, it seems to get worse...sunny days seem to be much better for and me too! I think we are both allergic to the rain. In any event, we are taking the best care possible for this little girl. She has stolen our hearts! She is definitely our little furbaby!

Notes from Home
I am happy to report that Nikko is having a fine adjustment to his new home. He clung to us 24/7 when we first got home. We introduced him to our cats one at a time. They eyeballed each other and did some hissing. He's not pals with them yet, but he's very interested in seeing what they are doing. They are more rambunctious than him, but he love to watch them play with "da bird".He even went into one of their cat beds for a snooze.
The dogs will take longer. He hides when he sees them, but come out quickly. I think he doesn't like it when they bark. He sleeps with us at night, but yesterday he asked to be let out in the middle of the night. He would rather be with the other cats. He only uses his big meezer voice to ask to be let into the bedroom, to be let out of the bedroom or to demand food
He is eating like a champ, both wet and dry food. He polish off what the other cats left behind. His litter box habits are flawless, and he keep himself fastidiously clean. His favorite spot is in a cubbyhole high up on the cat tree where he can watch all the action. He is a beautiful, sensitive creature and I feel lucky to have him.
6 month anniversary for Nikko! How the time fly. He is the perfect addition to our little family. He bonded to the older Siamese brothers I adopted years ago. They hang out together, snuggle together, and he got them to play more. I call them the Three Musketeers.
He has a weird little habit of peeing upside his litter box. We were wondering why there was pee outside the box. He hit the corner and the pee leak out through the gap between the lid and the box. We had to buy a high sided, seamless box to get the bathroom smelling good again.
I think he finally filled out. He is not so voraciously eating everyone else's food. He accepts the dogs, but prefer the cats, and humans of course. Independent but loving, a cat with a mind of his own. He is why we love Siamese.

Cupid formerly known as "Gunther" is enjoying his new Mount Vernon, VA home with his two sisters Cleopatra and Rebel and his best buddy Smiley. Since he is so loveable and since he came to us in February, we thought it was only appropriate to call him "Cupid". We are so happy with this little guy. He loves to eat and can't wait for his next meal time. Cupid pats your face oh so gently when he wants your attention. He loves kisses on his head. How can we resist? Thank you for making this happen for us. We love him!

ROCKY
Outgoing, talkative, demanding, loving, everywhere and anywhere, I'm all about being around my people, talking to them, checking everything out, and wanting to explore! Every day is a new day and I am just loving life! I'm a bit spooked by things I've never met before (small kids, vacuum cleaners); but overall I never realized there were so many cool things to do in life ! Sit on laps, climb on cat trees, stare out the windows, check out what's for dinner....) Life is GOOD and it would be even better if I could find my very own home!

Notes from Home
Rocky is a great friend. He will come to whatever room I am in. He will lay next to me and sometimes on me. He has to be in my business all the time. He gets in the sink when I am brushing my teeth or putting on makeup. He waits outside the shower for me to get done. He loves company and doesn't hesitate to get on people's laps. Very small people make him a little nervous. He happily approached a very quiet 2year old sitting on my sofa, and received lots of pets and a hug. However if the small child is very active and boisterous he will keep his distance. This is strange because grown-up noisy people don't phase him. He knows where all the sun spots are in the house at different times of the day. He is very talkative to me and my husband with that strange little squeaky voice.
Rocky has never scratched the furniture and is content with the cardboard scratch boards. He has great litter box habits. I think the counter tops are a lost cause but he does get down when I tell him.
The vet said he would get all his stripes and he has.
Rocky will go on the screen porch IF I am out there also. He has no desire to go outside. I think he is thinking "The last time I went outside they closed the door and I never got back in. I'm not taking any chances!"
I love my baby. Had to leave him overnight as went went away for the weekend. He was fine but glued himself to me when I got home.

Rocky runs to his safe place (under my bed) whenever the doorbell rings. He soon comes out to check out the visitors. If I have a party with a lot of people he will not come out. He is still afraid of toddlers. I have a new grandson and I am hoping when he is older Rocky will overcome his fears. He is so smart. He will sit on command. He knows when its time for his treats. He is still good about not scratching furniture. He loves to watch the birds the cat tree on the screened porch. He likes high places. He is not good about keeping his claws sheathed when he wants to touch me, so we have to clip them often. He submits to this very well. He is great company for me. Last summer I went away for a week. My sister looked in on him daily and made sure he got his treats. He seemed okay with this and was glad to see me when I got home. Oh I almost forgot. When I watch TV in the evening I put a throw over myself. If I fall asleep Rocky steals the blanket and snuggles into it on the floor. I wake up cold.:)
Rocky is getting less afraid of strangers. When the doorbell rings he heads for the bedroom as always, but now he stops in the doorway to see who it is. Sadly he is still terrified of toddlers. My 3 year old grandson loves cats and would love to be friends with Rocky.

ROCKY
Wait just a second! I'm working on this terrible shelter cold. Meommy is going to take me to the vet next week for a check up and some meds to get rid of this nasty thing. But when I feel better I'm going to be ready to play!!
There's are some great toys here. And there are some other kitties too. I scared the dickins out of one of them. Meommy wants to see if I like any of the girls but she said I have to get over this cold first.
I'm having dreams of sugar plums dancing in my head. And maybe a good climb right up that Christmas tree!
You better ask about me quick though because I'm so cute folks are going to be fighting over me.
I'd like to open all the gifts of new kitty toys from the Siamese Store that you've bought for me!
Purrs and chirps, Pippin

Notes from Home
Rocky was welcomed home and has been doing great! He is still young and full of mischievous energy. He is enjoying himself as he explores every single inch of the house, both high and low, inside and out. He's been sprinting into the bedroom at 60 or 70mph and launching himself onto the bed, doing a mid-air 180, and streaking back the way he came in. He loves to get into the highest, tightest areas and cause havoc and knock everything over. I think that in a former life he was a dog, because he really enjoys poking around in the kitchen garbage can, and is fascinated by the toilet. He also likes to lick my face and boy does he have a rough tongue. He gets the good, expensive stuff, but he is more interested in what the humans are having for breakfast or dinner. He is a fan of vegetables, spaghetti, and even oatmeal, although we tell him this makes him weird, he is a rebellious cat doing his thing.
Overall he's the coolest cat in our neighborhood, because I've heard that the only other cat around is at the neighbor's house. His name is Sport, only 7 months old and has been knocking things over, going through the garbage, drinking from the toilet..JEEZ what kind of cat would do THAT?!
22JUN16 - Rocky has been living life to the fullest and is enjoying himself. He is still a rambunctious young man and continues to sprint around the house and has found a dear love of balloons. He seriously cannot get enough of them. He is showing us his moves as he boxes the string and he then goes parading around the house with the balloon firmly gripped in his mouth. He is so PROUD to have the skills to conquer such a devious floating...thing with a string. We have a high ceiling in the living room and if somehow he loses the balloon and it floats to the top, out of his reach, he becomes very agitated and stares at the balloon and complains until I retrieve it with two broom handles taped together. I have to hide the balloon in the closet in order to get his attention away from it. So he just LOVES birthdays, Valentine's Day, even Father's Day..because he usually gets a balloon to play with!
We have been feeding him a grain free dry food, usually Wellness or comparable. No 9 Lives or Meow Mix for this guy. I had a much-loved Blue Russian cat named Davy when I was growing up, and he died from kidney failure, which I'm sure was a result of the 9 Lives he ate everyday. Rocky is eating about a third of a can of wet food around 7 every evening. He prefers his wet food VERY wet, as a stew more than a pate, so I add quite a lot of water and he laps it all up. He was really digging the Solistic brand wet food with all the chunks and shreds of actual meat, but lately he just wants soupy lumpy pate. So we give him what he wants. He's more of a fish connoisseur than a chicken or turkey fan. He definitely prefers a fish-based dry food..this we find out after we bought a big bag of chicken recipe. Oops. Yeah he's definitely not chowing down on this as much but he's eating well nonetheless. He's at about 9 pounds now. Still very athletic and agile. He just had a visit to the vet for his leukemia shot so he's up to date in the medical department. He's really well behaved at the vet, and they are truly surprised at how he just allows them to position him and do their work. He's a pretty laid back dude. He also doesn't put up much resistance to an occasional bath either. He's fairly quiet during that ordeal and he does rake my arm a little or hook my shirt and try to climb out after 10 minutes or so, but overall he should be commended for his stoic bravery and the trust he places in his humans.
Rocky has been asking me about his foster mom Carol and wants her to know that he is forever grateful for her taking care of him when he had that nasty cold way back when, and for allowing Chris and Dandan to live with him in Port Republic. He's a member of the family and yes he's a spoiled cat. He has his own ginormous cat tree that is his personal territory and he does not tolerate any human encroachment of the top platform. I have indeed been swatted in the head as I walk past at night in the dark without knowing he's even up there. He's got fast hands and he's living up to his namesake. Rocky!

I'm a little reserved at first, but with a soft touch and gentle hand, I warm right up. Young and healthy, I need to see the vet this week and will be ready to go the third week of June. A quieter home with a loving female cat, or as the only cat; either would work. I'm a slightly crosseyed very gentle souled kitty looking for my furever family.

Notes from Home
June 2016: Can it be five years already!? Suny is still as wonderful, sweet and loving as ever. He had his yearly check up in May and is in great health, but we see some plague on his teeth so it may be time to get those polished. Suny's canines are rather long and the veterinarian remarked on how he has kept these so nicely!
He is a remarkable kittie and we love him dearly. Thank you!
-Cathay and Mike
June, 2012: This amazing cat has been with me for a year now! He's such a great companion to my little dog Sophie. The updated photo shows them sleeping in the bed under my desk in my home office.
Suny is playful, warm and loving, and no trouble at all. He seems to appreciate life, just like me, and reminds me to enjoy and relish the moments. He follows me around the house and flops down in a way that always brings a smile to me. While sleeping, he often rolls over on his back, and when awake and loving he often likes his tummy rubbed. His favorite toy is anything with feathers, although Sophie gets excited about this too. I end up throwing fetch with her with one hand while wiggling the feathery toy for Suny with the other. It's quite a nightly dance!
I can't thank you enough for Suny. I love him dearly!
We've had Suny here for two weeks, and yet, it feels like he's been here forever. The first night, he settled right in and slept with me and my little dog Sophie as if he knew his place. His purring and appreciative slinky body rubs against my hand, head, legs and arms are like a pouring out of how affectionate he is.
Suny never seemed to need much time to adjust. We began adapting him to his new home by keeping him in the master bedroom, with a cat tower by the 2nd story window and a 'igloo type' of cat box in the bathroom. He explored every nook and cranny right away, every item from top to bottom. Then he looked at me and seemed to let me know the closet was next.
After that, he explored the hall and my office. It all went swimmingly. I kept Sophie in my arms so she could see Suny and not overwhelm him, but they both indicated a time when they wanted to formally meet, and this could not have gone better.
As the days progressed, they have moved from sleeping on each side of me to one side, and now to sharing Sophie's day bed under my office desk when I am working. They play tag with each other and respect each other's food and space. The only thing I have to watch is Sophie's attraction to Suny's feathery toy...I have had to replace that one already. Sophie has a basket of toys but when I am playing with Suny and this toy, it's a bit much for the little dog! I end up holding her and we trade times playing (fetch with Sophie and scramble attack the feathery toy with Suny)! It is getting better.
Suny immediately knew where the food, water and cat box were and had no problems. He wants to follow us outside to the garden when I go out to weed and water, but he's learning that his domain is this home. And that he, my prince of a cat, makes this place even more of a warm home than ever.
He is wonderful, loving, angelic and delightful. He has fit right in! Thank you Siri, Andrea and all who assist with the adoption process.
