VIRGINIA DARE
I'm Virginia Dare (Ginny) and I've had a hard time of it since I came into rescue. I just lost my brother Raleigh when we got very sick, and now I'm all alone in this world. Mom promises me that a wonderful life and a very special, gentle playmate will be waiting for me on the other side of this room.
Update 6/22: Ginny is doing much much better and we're seeing her incredibly sweet, loving personality come through. A more 'grateful to be alive' kitten would be hard to find.

Foster Notes for Virginia Dare [VA8600] |
She'd love a friendlyfeline companion. Because she had such a bad run-in with calicivirus, we'd like to see her placed with another cat that's in good health and up to date on all vaccines. |

Notes from Home
Ginny has grown more beautiful since we've adopted her! She doesn't have much of a meow, but her purr motor is loud!! She loves to flop and have her sides and back rubbed, then rolls over to make sure that we get the other side!! She is a great chaser, and loves to chase after anything that moves!!
1/17/13 - Ginny is such a sweetheart! She loves to snuggle! Ginny's stripes have darkened and the accentuate her beautiful face! We truly enjoy having our "babies" and wouldn't know what to do without them!
7/19/13 - I can't believe that it's been a year since we adopted Ginny! The time has flown right by! Ginny is still the sweetest kitty! She still doesn't have much of a meow, but does have the most adorable trill! She loves to have her back and belly scratched!!

WENDY LOU FKA SINBA
WHO? Me! Yep I'm Wendy Lou! I'm all kitten too! I've also got a whole lot to say at the top of my lungs! I'll need to stay with my foster meowm for a while until I'm big enough to get spayed so I can't go home for a little while but you can ask about me and see if I might be the one for you. No long trips to my new home please.

Wendy Lou started out as a flying meezer at our house but over the years she has been with us she has calmed down very much. She enjoys looking out the windows and playing with her big friend Pongo. They are always together where ever they are in the house. She is a sweet cat with a chirp to say hello!
Always the first to find me for breakfast. She loves to sleep on the blankets and in her bed.
She is such a nice kitty, she always has something to say when you go by with her big blue eyes!

TRISTAN
Hey, adopters - Tristan here.
I am out of isolation now and loving life:) I get to race and chase and play and go wherever I want to now) No more cage or bedroom only for this guy!
And guess what else? I have a new friend to play with:) I really like that because I was so lonely being all by myself! After all, everybody needs a buddy to hang with:)
I get to sleep with foster mom and dad too! I like to snuggle right behind foster dad's knees - ahhh, so comfy!!
So, if you have a cat buddy (dude or chick) for me to chill with (no woofers, though - they scare me!) and you want a snuggle partner in bed - well I'm your guy:)
Oh, and did I mention - I LOVE to talk, talk, talk!
Do I sound like your kind of guy? Then hurry up and ask about me soon!!!

Notes from Home
(July 2013) I'm still running around and chasing after Mali or my imaginary buddies. Mali's still a scaredy cat but she's proven to be a great buddy. And just like I figured, she's learned my tricks and is now turning the tables on me! I still have to get her going sometimes because she does like to just wallow in the sun.
I've passed all my vet exams with flying colors. In fact on the last visit when the Doc was getting ready to give me my shots, I fell asleep on the exam table. He said I was really one laid back dude. My owner ratted me out though. I seem easy going but I am still a bundle of nerves who just likes to have fun all the time.
I still hog the bed at night so Mali rarely comes up to sleep there. That's a good thing because I'm pretty restless so the more room I have to romp, the better off we all are.
And I still end up in the time-out room at least once a month. But let me tell you, it is so worth it. In fact, I seem to know when I've done something that's going to land me there so I calmly strut down the hall in advance. I do wait by the door to see if I was right and if so, I scamper in and settle in for the 15 minutes. Sometimes I can convince Mali to paw with me under the door. That often shortens the time.
Our owners go away from time-to-time but we have the best cat sitter so it's not too scary. I wasn't sure at first but Mali had already adjusted to it so I followed her lead. And now I just love when people come to visit. I quickly jump into the fray and hog the petting. The neighbors have twin babies and Mali doesn't like them so I'm getting all the attention and pets. I hope she never likes them ha!
Mali still leaves wet food in her dish for me so I can't complain. And she lets me follow her everywhere. She doesn't get too much freedom from me until I settle down. I will still wear myself out and totally crash so I feel she gets plenty of "me" time.
And I've learned to let Mali get brushed first in the morning and she's learned to let me be first in playtime. And we both respect each other's playtime. I play with the laser toy and cat dancer with our owner by myself and then Mail plays with the wand toy with our owner by herself and I watch. When they both tire, I beg for more and sometimes I luck out! Staring them down helps a lot!
Yep, I do love it here. I rarely get the sniffles anymore. And I've managed to avoid more scratches from Mali's claws. So all in all, life is just great for me! I may live to be 20 at this pace!
(July 2011) Wow, I've been here for a full year! The time has flown by, tho we kitties don't really understand time like our owners do....! I'm having a ball living in NYC! I still love looking out the windows down on the street activities below. I never tire of it. Just like I never tire of the laser toy.
Speaking of the laser, 4th of July in the city was just like one big laser toy! I couldn't keep myself seated in one window - there were lights dancing all over the sky so I had to keep moving along the windowsills to keep up! I'd never seen anything like it. Even Mali came over and sat behind me watching the sky. We had such a busy night that I think I slept the entire next day.
And Mali is getting to be a bit more fun. When we're alone, she'll play and romp with me. We end up sleeping near each other, but I have to keep one eye open on her as she has pretty sharp claws. She's a great mimic which was a lot of fun in the beginning but now she's starting to torture me like I've been able to do to her and I'm not as keen on that. She and the owner start to gang up on me, and all I've done is pounce on the two of them and give them my little trademark - love bites. I'll have to figure out how to stay one step head of the two of them....
I have claimed this home as mine. I greet the neighbors and the doormen whenever I hear them in the hall. And I am starting to keep my ground when that annoying dog next door comes sniffing over. Mali isn't as concerned about the big old shaggy thing. She said she used to live with dogs and thinks they're ok. Me, I'm not so sure. But I'm following her on this one. She better not be up to something...
I sleep on the bed every night! It's the best thing ever. I even let Mali come up on the bed though after awhile I have to give her a good old push. Then somehow we're both out in the hall. It's still fun. I put us all through this every night. They'll never learn...
And Mali and the owner have managed to get me to love a good brushing. You see, I can't let Mali get anything without me also getting some. So when I got wind of the daily brushing Mali got, then I had to get some too. At first, I didn't really like it. I loved it under my chin but I didn't like it on my back. But I watched Mali melt every morning so I was determined to see what she was getting that I wasn't. Well, after a few weeks, now I love it too.
Well, it's been kinda quiet so not I've got to go and rile up the little girl. She's been quiet for way too long. She'll miss me if I leave her alone too long.
Till next time.... Jack the Nipper
**************************************************************************************************************************
(March 2011) Well, it's been a tough winter for us. Mali decided she didn't like me and we were gated for a very long time. All I wanted to do was run around so we could keep our figures trim and sleek, but she wouldn't play! What a party pooper.
She finally started to share her toys with me in January, and we figured out how to toss things under the gates so I wasn't as bored. And our owner spent a lot of time playing with us. Last month, we started to play together so things are definitely picking up.
Now our routine is for all of us to spend time at night playing and sleeping. I love the playing time. I haven't been able to convince anyone that the nipping is also fun. I might have to give that up. What's a guy supposed to do who doesn't have his claws any more?
And, I found that red ball. I like it but I prefer another one. And recently these little mice toys came out that were a lot of fun till the tails were chewed off. I still love the laser toy the best. I will do anything for the laser. And of course for a pet.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(August 2010) Hi folks! I've made it to NYC and here I am on the very first night. I think I'm going to love this place, can ya tell in my expression?
Well, it's been about a month now since I've arrived, and I must admit it's pretty nice here. I do have to learn a few new rules because these owners don't really appreciate my love bites. They're calling me Jack, after Jack the Nipper. Hmmm, I'm only responding when there are treats involved.
I've shown everyone my ability to jump to great heights when pursuing a wand toy. Just wait till the flies arrive; then they'll see my acrobatics!
I kinda messed up my integration. I just can't seem to control my love of pouncing. Mali didn't appreciate it and finally she let me have it. We can't be together anymore for a little while till I learn to calm down a bit and she learns not to be such a scaredy cat (she's giving us kitties a bad rap hrmpff).
Lately she's been warming up. We sniff each other through a 2" crack and she rarely hisses at me anymore. I'm dying having to be fairly calm around her - I want a playmate! Once she really warms back up to me, I might just have to test drive her running skills.
Well, that's life right now for me, Jack, and my buddy in waiting, Mali.

LITTLE NOCHU
I was a frail little fella, born with a birth defect called pectus excavatum,( a Latin term meaning hollowed chest), I was doing ok for a while, but it was obvious that I had trouble catching my breath when I played, so Meowmy thought it might be a good idea to tell you why I was moved back to evaluation.
You see, in order to survive I needed a very special operation, and a wonderful vet contacted the center and meowmy and offered to see what she could do for me. Meowmy drove me to her hospital last weekend, and on Friday I got the special surgery I needed. I'll be there for a while so that the vet can moniter me while I wear a special brace to correct my defect. She even sent a photo of me while I was asleep with her putting it on. She did promise some more photo's, too, so we'll post them, too, when she sends them for you all to see!
I am doing ok right now and am getting used to this "thing" on my chest.Doesn't it make me handsome?????

Notes from Home
9/13/11 Nochu... he has far surpassed all expectations that I had for him. He continues to improve, week to week. And unless you knew what to feel for in his chest, you might miss that there was ever anything wrong. The effort was so well worth it. He is a little love. I attached a few pics of my kids. You will see Nochu interacting with his siblings, wrestling in my painting area, and with his final vest. He was sporting an "S" for supercat on his back, and an "L" on his chest for Little. He was often called Super Little at the hospital during all his procedures.
So his official name is Little Nochu. He is doing well. He did have a third surgery last Friday. After 4 weeks of his splint, he just grew out of it. I removed the splint last Sunday, and he had a few free (no splint) days. After lots of discussion and lots of additional X rays, we (the surgeon and I, with the recommendation of the ER vets) went back to surgery to get him the best conformation that we can. He has truly become a team effort. The X rays after surgery showed good correction of the tip of his sternum that refuses to cooperate. Hopefully this splint lasts 4 weeks, and he doesn't have another growth spurt. He recovered well from this surgery, and did not have to stay in the hospital on O2 overnight. This is a good sign, showing us that his breathing is significantly improved. When I got him home that night, he was running and playing.
He is eating and drinking better, but is a really picky kitty. He changes what he will eat daily, and has expensive taste. He still likes to be hand fed, but is doing better with a bowl on his own. I think that some of his pickiness is the difficulty in bending down to the bowl while wearing the splint. But, funny enough, the splint does not slow him down at all. He is feisty, and a runner, despite my best efforts to prevent him from being active. He can now jump on chairs, climb the cat trees, and run really fast. He is becoming fast friends with Adam. Adam is skeptical about the friendship, and is sometimes scared of the kitten, but Little Nochu is determined to play with this big brother. He just really likes Adam. The nice thing about his climbing ability is that he is able to use the big cat litter pans. He had his own shallow pans until yesterday. He never used them. He just climbed on in to the adult pans.... funny cat. He is such a smart little fellow. He has also learned about treat time. He knows that the shaking of the bag means treats, and he loves treats!
We are really happy with our new little cat. He fits in to all the quirkiness of our household so well. We just have to laugh at all of his antics. He is even handling the move in stride. The boxes are just the best toys ever.
Thank you all for making the adoption go so smoothly. I just couldn't let this one go. We will keep you updated on his progress after the move on Saturday. My parents are coming on Thursday to help pack and move, but their other job is to keep the animal out of the way and safe. They are so excited to see Little Nochu again! They are happy we adopted him.
7/17/13 News from their new home in Germany!
Adam and Little have grown into very loving cats. They are even loving brothers! Adam is very handsome, and can be loud with his meezer cry. He is playful, and very food driven. He is currently on a bit of a diet! He is attached to Victor and I, and also my parents. He is quite shy around strangers, and many of our friends have never met the handsome Siamese in our photos. That is fine with me, because when everyone leaves, he curls up next to me, and gives kisses! Little is still a kitten, and will always be my baby. After months of hand feeding him 3 times a day, we are inseparable. He follows me like a dog, and I love it. He is 7.5 pounds, and breathes easily... a long way from the video I first saw of him! He is a very normal cat, with no limitations on what he can do. If you feel his chest closely, you can still tell he is a bit flat chested... but there is no sign that his sternum was once so displaced. His spine still curves inward but this has not been an issue. His heart still lays on the left, and is easy to feel. At night he lays on my chest, and I feel his heart beat next to mine. He is just so perfect!
Everyone at Siamese Rescue is still in our hearts. We love the babies you rescued and cared for so that we could adopt them. Thank you!

ADAM
Hi, I'm Adam, and I here with my brother Connor and sister, Pearle. We are very lucky kittens. A nice lady saw us with our mom one day when she went to by a lamp from a lady who lived out in the woods of WV. This lady was having a hard time feeding all of us, so the nice lady said she would take us and help us find a good home. We were just tiny babies at that time. Our angel then called Siamese rescue to help her. She took such good care of us until we could come here to meowmy to find our forever homes. I am the most confident and playful of the us. Our angel said we like kids and dogs, too.
If you want a nice boy like me, ask about me and we'll see.

Adam, my first Meezer love is also doing really well. He is a little ham. He is now 1 year old. (Jeanne, can you believe it?) He is a rascally little guy, naughty, but always very sweet. He is playful, and loves to leap when we play mouse. He and Nochu became quick buddies, and remain that way. They both occasionally let Emily, my young torti play too! However, they have pushed her to aquire other friends as well.
It has been 2 weeks, and Adam is doing great. He fits right in perfectly. He gets along great with his kitten sister. They had a few rough days, but now they are just two peas in a pod, playing, and causing trouble. They are teriffic playmates. He also loves his two old cat brothers, and has been seen curled up next to both of them. He is still a bit skeptical about his adult sister. She can be judgemental at first, but in time, she will accept him.
Adam loves the doggies too, and has made a game of pouncing on them, or chasing their tails. They are very playful, and want to play with him, but then he gets scared. The fear is short lived, and he goes right back to pouncing. He is a funny little guy.
Adam is a great sleeper, so he has been getting some quiet time at night. He has slept with us everynight since we took him home. He curls up right between us, and sleeps the entire night.
We are smitten, and love Adam. He was the perfect guy for us. We have some good pics, so they will be posted soon.
7/17/13 The news from their new home in Germany! Adam and Little have grown into very loving cats. They are even loving brothers! Adam is very handsome, and can be loud with his meezer cry.

I’m a TLC kinda guy……Totally Loving Cuddle bug. |

JR
UPDATE 7/31/12 - Still itchy, but my vet has consulted a vet dermatologist and we are waiting on his thoughts and a plan for me. I am really totally healed up as you can see in my new pictures - just still itchy. Hope I can go HOME soon. Purrs and headbutts, JR
UPDATE: 7/12/12 - Well, I've tried a couple new medicines and I still itch. But we are continuing to try other medicines to help. Mama Katie even dressed me up in leather doggie booties to see if they would shield my claws if I scratched. They worked fine, BUT, I told her in NO undertain terms that I was NOT a DOG and would NOT wear those booties even when she put vet wrap around them. Then she tried baby booties and I didn't like those any better. SO, no shoes, booties or anything going on MY paws. Now she is going to try something called Soft Claws - have no idea what those are, but I guess I'll see if I'm gonna wear them. Stay tuend. Purrs and headbutts from JR. .
UPDATE 6/24/12 - It's been two months since I came to Hotel delShue. WOW, I sure have gotten better. Check out my latest photos with FUR on my face. Yes, REAL fur. Purrs and Headbutts, JR
UPDATE New t-shirt shots in my gallery. And, one really nice picture with my blue eyes, new whiskers and my "peach fuzz". Mama Katie says I should be very proud of that new "fuzz" on my face. Purrs, JR
UPDATE: 5/22/12 - Look at my new pictures. I have "new soft skin" on my face and neck, too. There are even whiskers and a little fur growing back in. And, my EYES. You can finally see them and see how wonderfully blue they are. New "t" shot coming in a couple days - stay tuned. LOTS of love, JR.
UPDATE - 5/17/12 Mama Katie made me a t-shirt to wear, but I was too tired to try it on last night, so she just put it around me and took some pictures. More to come. I got to wear my new orange vet wrap too for the first time - makes me look pretty "spiffy". Purrs and chin cuddles, JR
UPDATE: 5/13/12. JR's updated new pictures of his much improved face are up for you to see., One of JR's biggest fans has suggested that he needs some t-shirts with JR slogans on them. Join in on the fun. I'll be making a few in the next few weeks or that he can model. Here are the current ideas: "Please hold me." for JR and "I'm JR's #1 holder" for me., "I survived" for JR. And, when he is all healed a picture of him before and after with the slogan, "I am against animal cruelty". Any more ideas? E-mail to foster mom at kathryn790@aol.com. Purrs and big headbutts from Mama Katie and JR.
UPDATE: 5/10/12 JR saw the vet today for his recheck. He is doing well. The left side of his face has new skin over almost all of it, the area on his neck has all new skin and is healing very well. The right side of his face which was the worst to begin with it still healing. He got his vet wrap off of it last night again and did some scratching, so it doesn't look as good today as it did yesterday. The vet was pleased anyway. He is not going to need grafts, so she said that she could go ahead and neuter him tomorrow. He might need some surgery later after everything heals and the skin gets firmer, but for now, he's doing fantastic. He is SUCH a good boy. Will need to continue to be treated, wrapped and get pain meds for quite a while so that he doesn't rip the new skin away.
UPDATE: 5/7/12 - It's started!! I am starting to heal. Mama Katie and Daddy Vic are so excited. I'm still trying to get out of my "head gear" and do sometimes, but I'm not franitic when I do any more. They just fix me up and hold me and I go back to sleep. Mama Katie took some new pictures of me so you can see how my face is looking now with the new skin growing in around the edges. It's a pretty exciting time and will take a lot longer to finish healing, but I'm GETTING BETTER. It's a happy time for all of us. Purrs and headbutts, JR
WARNING - if you are squeemish about blood, you might not want to look at my new pictures pr videos.
UPDATE 4/27/12 - My burns are starting to heal. My face isn't as red and with the cream, I don't itch quite so much. The vet put a new red "hat" on me today. Mama Katie will get some pictures up of that pretty soon. She says that now I'm an IU fan - lots of those in this house. Kathleen, one fo the IN/KY/IL team volunteers came to visit tonight and held and cuddled me and let me sleep in her arms. I really liked that. Purrs, cuddles and snores, JR.
Hi - my name is JR. Do you know who I am named after? If you watched last seasons Dancing with the Stars, you will. You see, I am a survivor of some pretty bad burns just like JR Martinez. Mama Katie said I needed a positive outlook to get through all of this, so she gave me a positive survivor's name. No one knows exactly what happened to me, but someone may have poured acid on me. Fortunately, I closed my eyes, so they are not burned, but my face and under my neck are very sore and raw right now. The vet gave me lots of TLC today and everyone in the office helped get me cleaned up, treated and put a special head wrap on me ot help me heal and not scratch my wounds. You would think that I would be a grumpy boy, but I an SOOOOOO sweet and kept trying to headbutt the people who loved and took care of me. Everyone who has seen me says that I am a very sweet and loving boy. They all wanted to help me. I am going to need several weeks to heal and after that I'll need a special home where they will love me no matter how disfigured my face is. My rescue vet says that she "might" want to do some surgery to help me heal faster and make my face less scared and stretched, but that won't happen for a while. In the meantime, if you have a special place in your heart for a very special boy with an attitude just as positive as his name sake, be sure to ask about me. Purrs and headbutts, JR Meezer.

Notes from Home
Hi everyone. JR just wanted to check in and say Hello. All is going well for him. He is the love of my life and my kindred kitty spirit. My fuzz face likes to cuddle in my lap, follow Katie around the house, and even lets Bubba love him. His favorite pass time is sitting on the kitchen table on top of Katie's books or computer, distracting her from her homework. After all, he is more important. LOL, He has finally made friends with Indigo and I thought things would quiet down. Boy was I wrong. When they play and run, they sound like horses. They play all the time, eat together, and sleep together. They love sneaking up on each other and chasing each other JR is spoiled rotten. Recently we introduced him to fresh catnip grown at Poppy's. He loved it. He rolled on it, chewed on it, and tossed it all about. JR is such a loving kitty. Everyone in my neighborhood comes to visit him and Indie. They can't believe the changes in him (and her) since he first arrived. His face has totally healed, and some of his hair has grown back. His scars are smooth and soft, not at all dry. He no longer scratches at his face or ears. Well we have to go because my fuzz face is trying to sit on the computer now. Guess it is kitty time. Love and kisses to everyone and our sincere thanks for saving his life and letting him come into our forever home.
Jr. wants to wish everyone a Happy New Year and hopes everyone had a great holiday. Jr. has been very busy since being adopted. He is all healed up, off all of his meds, no longer wears the cone, and RULES the house. After a rocky first few weeks, we found a new food that he liked and that seemed to help the itching go away even more. He now eats Blue Buffalo Basic Duck. We had to change Indigo's food to the same since our little piggy boy would sneak into the pantry and eat her Blue Buffalo Wildernees Chicken. Chicken is definetly a no-no for him. Jr. is quite the lover boy. He loves sitting in our laps and getting his chin rubbed. He sleeps with Mommy at night and keeps her company during the day when everyone is gone. The hair on his face has come back pretty good and his coat is so soft and silky. He likes to follow us around the house and swat at our legs as we walk. He sits on the steps and swats at our heads when we go by. Jr. really enjoyed the christmas tree. Those dangling ornaments and twinkling lights were just too much to resist. The family has had to hang many ornaments back on the tree after they mysteriously fell off. Jr. tried to say it wasn't him, but the glitter on his head and feet gave him away. My love bug is sooooo playful that it sometimes gets him in trouble, especially with Indigo who does not appreciate being pounced on.
Sorry it has taken so long to update his page, but its hard to resist just sitting on the couch and snuggling with my blue eyed soul mate.
Best wishes, snuggles, purrs from us all,
Jr. and Family

INDIGO
I'm a sweet petite little girl who seems to have a well rounded personality with no issues so far. Foster mom says she will check me out with doggies soon.
Yes, those blue babies on the site are mine. Now that my mom status is finished, I hope to find a loving family to share the rest of my life with.

Notes from Home
Hi everyone. Just wanted to post an update on our little Indigo. It's been a year since we adopted Indie into our home and we couldn't be happier with her. She is definitely a Daddy's girl, but she also loves her Poppy. She loves to sleep next to Daddy at night, get Katie loves in the morning, and play tag with JR. I never thought I would see the two of them get along but something changed this spring and now they are best buddies. She loves to sneak up and attack him when he isn't looking. He likes to grab her feet from under the bed when she walks by. They eat together, sleep together, and play together. Couldn't be happier with our sweet little girl. :)
Hi, it's Indigo. Mom and I are just stopping by to update you on my life since being adopted. First, let me say that I have the most wonderful Daddy in the world. He is my favorite human and I am his eyeballs. He loves to snuggle with me on the couch, carry me around in his arms, and he evens lets me bite him. I don't bite to be mean, I just love him so much that I could just eat him right up! I love being in the kitchen. That's were the action is. My family is always in there. I can't figure out why they keep opening that big white thing with the door (the frig) but it's cold in there. Sometimes I get in the way so they can't shut it and poke my nose up in the to see what's up. I also find that the other thing they put clothes (the dryer) in is a great place to hide, but mom runs me out, It's so warm to lay on top of. I like to sit on the kitchen table and watch everyone cooking, doing dishes, and doing homework. I know I can't be on the table when they are eating, but I get up there when Katie is doing her homework. She only fusses when I lay on the computer or text book and she can't do her work. But, who needs homework because she should by loving me. I still am not crazy about that little boy. I let him touch me for a few then I ge up and go away. He is like JR. They are both too loud and too wild for my liking. I like the bigger people. They tell me how beautiful I am and I just eat it up. I have even trained my Poppop. When he comes to visit I like to get loves from him and I chuckle when the chases JR away when he's bothering me. Katie and I are Poppop's girls. I like roaming about the house at night. Dad's not a big sleeper and we get a lot of alone time. JR is like mom, he likes sleeping at night and being up during the day. This works for me because I can get into mischief at night and blame it on him. LOL I like being the big sister.
I love my forever home and my family. They spoil me rotten and the luvs are endless.
Purrs and Snuggles,
Indigo and family

MIKA
FLIRT ALERT!!!
Not only am I a huge flirt, but I am playful, athletic, and chirpy. I love attention and love to give kisses and headbutts. Foster mom is trying to get me used to being held, but after 10 seconds, or so, I am ready to get down. That's enough time for foster mom to sneak in a few kisses, though. I LOVE people, and I love lots of pets and scritches.
I'm cute as a button and have the cutest bob tail. I am a chocolate snowshoe point and I have the most exquisite markings.
Chirps and Headbutts,
Ella (AKA Ella Bean, to foster mom)
Make sure you check out my new pictures! I have videos, too, but foster mom is trying to figure out how to display them properly ...

Notes from Home
Ella- NKA Mika is making good strides, although she still is a fraidy cat. She stepped on a blanket the other day and was horrified. What's that? She has a love/hate relationship with a green dust mop. BUT yesterday she explored the cat tree on the lanai all by herself and declared it hers.
She is a love bug. She eats like a little piggy. She will even eat a can that has been previously opened. No turning up her nose - no walking away in disgust. She EATS!
A interesing note but perhaps TMI- she may resent me telling this when she older but I will chance the therapy. She poops while standing on her hind legs. She raises herself up like a pony and (excuse me) just does it. Then she looks at you - like- "What's the matter? Isn't this how every cat does this?"
Thanks to all for getting her here.
as ever MAWebb
August 18/2011
Mika is doing well. She still is scaredy cat. She does not like the cat she sees in the mirror. She stands her ground like she is Clint Eastwood"s Dirty Harry. "Go ahead make my day".
She is allowing me to pick her up but only to hold for 30 sec or so. She does come by and stop at the side of my chair to get petted. She will come up on the bed and get petted.
She is very BUSY- here there and everywhere. She is not like Mystic- you put him somewhere and he would stay there. Her first job every morning is as "Security Cat"- she goes and checks the whole house out all around the perimeter. She went to the vet and was good as gold- no leaping off the table. She passed her exam with colors flying and tail rotating.
She has a new word in her vocabulary- GET, as in
GET the wand
GET the toy mouse
GET off the table
GET off the counter.
GET out of the cupboard
GET down from those towels
GET up on your tree
GET away from the front door
BUT the the best use of the word GET is
GET out of the dishwasher!
She is a hoot- she looks at you as if to say- "what?- who me? I'm cute
and we know it- so just accept it and go on with our life!
She races to her tree at meal time and that tail goes round and round. She is very affectionate on her tree otherwise she is way too busy to stop and GET cuddles.
She is flourishing
MAW
Mika is growing by leaps and paws. I say paws because she seems to have an OCD reaction to the cat in the mirror and the back of doors. She paws at them. She locked herslf in the office by pawing at the back of the door, so there are door stops in her future.
She does accept getting on my chest for a little T-Touch of her ears and she will purr. She barely meows but makes a chirping sound instead. When she gets goofy, she chirps and kicks up her heels and off she goes. She can do back flips. She loves playing with toy mice and hides them under a rug. She does fetch with her favorite one but- only if she is in the right mood- my dear.
She is having trouble with her anal sacs. She has very dense thick hair and she does have lots of fur in her poop and does get constipated. At first, I thought she had blood on her bum-bum but it is the oil from the sac. One protudes after her BM. I am using Miralax and laxatone, but if any one has any suggestions- please go ahead.
She is having a good Christmas. She climbed the fireplace wall to swing from the mantle to bat an ornament and then turn around and looked at me - with that "What?" expression on her face.
Mika 2013:
Mika is quiet the character and not the least bit spoiled. Yeah right.
She is full of energy most of the time. Busy Busy Busy. Most often, she goes to sleep on the lanai. But there are times, when, you just can’t find her. My friend CC and I searched one day for two hours and never found her. So, she is good at hiding.
Her routine is to wake about 6AM and come in from the lanai. The best money I ever spent was a pet door for her. She can runs in and out to the lanai any time she wants. The lanai has windows and screens with no access to the outside. It is surrounded by a fenced in patio and she loves to watch the lizards and the birds out there. She loves her pet door so much, that even if I open the sliding glass door for her, she will use the pet door instead.
We call her a traitor. When I have to go to work, sometimes out of state, CC will stay with her. When I am home, she won’t let CC touch her. She runs and hides. BUT if I am not home, she will go to CC, show off her belly, wait for belly rubs and purrs away. But when I am home – OH NO- she will run away.
She runs to her room for food. She eats in the afternoon. I’ve had problems in the past with cats, waking me at all hours to eat. I have some disabilities so I need my rest. She starts chirping around two in the afternoon. She does not meow- she chirps. She will run to her tree in her room. She glances behind just to make sure you are following. You MUST brush her first. Elevator Butt. Then she hops up to eat. She likes fish- only fish. One day I did give her some chicken and beef, but she kept licking her feet- a sign of allergies.
She still does not like to be picked up. I could chase her around all morning and she won’t let me pick her up. The only time, she will allow herself to be picked up is when she comes in from the lanai and she stretches herself all out and then she will pull herself along the rug. “ok, you can pick me up now!†But even though, you are allowed to hold her, it’s not for long.
At night she will come into the room while the TV is on. She rest on the back of the couch. She also has a soft blanket that she will actually use now. She would rather have a plastic trash bag to be on. I think that was because she was left outside to fend for herself.
She will sleep on the bed in a pet bed. Most of the ones I bought, she wanted nothing to do with them. Then one day, I noticed she likes to have a back to rest on. The beds I had gotten before, including the Millie bed, were round. So I bought her a DOG ( shhhhh) bed. It’s rectangular and open on one side. She loves it- but don’t tell her I know. She will come to bed with me for a while but leaves to go off to the lanai.
She loves to play with paper. My living room looks like an abandoned paper mill. I put a fan on over the pile and she dives in- like a kid with a pile of leaves. She loves it.
She still has trouble with her anal sacs. I express them by using colloidal silver on them. They puff out and then are very visible to express. She is such a good girl. I put more colloidal silver on them after and she goes off and washes herself.
My main issue with her is that she is still patting at - doors - mirrors- walls- whatever. Pretty certain, she is doing it for attention- YA THINK?

LADY FIONA
I look big, don't I? Guess what? I don't even weigh 5 pounds sopping wet. Cinderella's slipper would fall off my dainty foot. I won't make you come look for me at the stroke of midnight. Nope! I will come find you.

Notes from Home
7/16/13: 6 weeks after being adopted Fiona continues to adapt well to her new home. She is loving, playful and energetic, with a wonderful appetite. She's thriving on Fancy Feast canned food supplemented with quality dry food. Her coat is soft and "fluffy" with a nice sheen. Fiona loves the 6 ft. tall cat tree in the sunroom and her crinkly play tunnel. Balls of all sizes and types seem to be her favorite toy. She enjoys an interactive play session each night with a Galkie Kitty Tease (which helps take care of her excess energy!!!). She spends a lot of time during the day looking out the windows enjoying the birds and other critters which come into our yard. She is very friendly with all visitors and has become our "official greeter" to friends, family and repairmen alike. She is bonding with both of us, although she seems to favor Bob. She is a real delight and we are enjoying her company immensely. We have had SO many laughs from her silly antics and ways she finds to interact with us.

GABE
Hi!
I am a very social active guy who seeks a home with another kitty that likes me. I love to headbutt kitties and people, but I need someone who appreciates my affection. I love toys and catnip, but don't tell anyone. ;)
Purrs,
Gabe
