LI SHOU
Okay folks. What gives?
Is it because I used to be a floozie? Well, I bet you've got a few regrets on your ol' date list too!
Is because I've got a fat funny belly? SOME think it's kind of cute.
Is it because I'd rather be the ONLY girl in your life? Well, I might let you have other furries in the house, but I'm a little bit scared of them. We'll do best if it's just YOU and ME. And you and I will be the best pals, just as long as you don't try to use my litterbox...
Sound good? Great! My little bags are packed and I'm ready to go!

Notes from Home
You know how some girls love snuggly sweaters and mulled wine and other girls adore sundresses and margaritas? Well I’m a sundress and margarita kind of girl. I didn’t know it until I moved to Florida in December because I really liked living in Maryland with my people. But then we came to Florida and I am in HEAVEN!!
It’s wonderful here. I have lots of windows to lie in to soak up the sun, tiled floors to chase sparkly balls, and a balcony that I sit on to watch the birds in the nearby tree. Every morning the birds and I have a long talk about things in general and then I have a nap. I am really good at naps and I have beds and chairs all over the house to sleep in. You just never know where you’re going to find me.
I love my people and I know they love me. I get brushed and loved on every day. I have lots of good food and exercise and I’ve slimmed down to a sleek 10 pounds. And my fur has gotten lighter; must be all that lying in the sun. Oh wait, it’s the other way around. Well, whatever, I’m lighter than I was in Maryland but not as light as I was when I was living with Mommy Belinda. In any case I’m still absolutely gorgeous.
The only thing in my life that’s not perfect is that my soul mate Katie goes away for long periods of time called college. I miss her tons but her big brother - who pretends not to adore me, but I know better – gives me lots of extra love and attention when she’s away and he is really good at headbutts. If I’m feeling bored or lonely, I hang out with him. He’s a great companion.
So that’s it here at Casa di LiShou, south. Thanks to all of the angels in Siamese Rescue who gave me another chance at life.
Love,
LiShou

JASPER
Don't ya need a little JAZZ in your life?
You need to check out my video. I love to talk and I must say I am a BRILLIANT conversationalist! Really.
I'm also a good listener.
Have a problem getting up in the morning? I can help. I sit by your face and put my paw on your nose. This will get you wide awake!
I was left at the shelter with this note:
"My name is Jasper. I am a 10 year old Burmese Tabby. I have not had my shots in a couple of years my Mommy loves me but has serious financial problems. Thank you God bless and I will say prayers."
Foster Mom says everybody is praying for me to get a good home. And I'm all shot up and microchipped and everything now. Ready to go, as they say!
I get along with everybody here at Foster Mom's house & I think I've got Foster Pa wrapped around my paws. I go sit right next to him on the couch and look at him lovingly. So far, it's working great. He thinks I'm a very cool cat.
I know I need to work on the weight thing but I'm being good and eating what Foster Mom gives me. It makes my coat pretty, too!
Now, go ahead and check out that video!
And for heaven's sake, Ask About Me!
Love
JAS

Jasper is adjusting well to our home. We could not be more pleased. He is everything Donna said he would be and more. He went from "I'm just not sure" to "thank you, I do own the place" in a very few days. We absolutely love him.

WISEMAN
I'm so confused as to why I've gone from my family to a shelter & now to this temporary home. Once I discovered the soft bed, I felt a lot more secure, I decided it was okay to rest & relax. Then I discovered my food & water bowls & decided it was okay to eat & drink. Then the litter box...yeah...I needed a box of my very own cause I know how to use it faithfully! I'm starting to come out of my shell, but just don't understand what happened & why I've been moved all around. My family moved & could no longer take care of me, so they decided I needed to find another home. This time I want it to be a home for keeps...so let's make a deal...you give me a forever home & time to adjust & I will be a loyal friend for life & love you forever.
Let's get moving on that button you need to click...I'm anxious to find you.

Notes from Home
Wiseman is doing well. We discovered that his name is actually 'Cookie' and he responds to that, so that's what we are going with. Because he's so big, we actually call him "Cookie Monster' but he doesn't seem to mind.
Cookie is still pretty skittish, although he seems to like his new Meowmy - lets her pick him up, gives her lots of head-butts and touch noses, and loves tummy rubs. He particularly loves curling up and begging for a tummy rub in front of Meowmy's monitor screens while she is working. He is doing all his cat things - eating, drinking, sleeping, and using the litter-box - just fine. He is still very anxious about Ducky, and she has responded with mixed signals - hissing and chasing him under a chair one day, meowing and rolling around in front of him the next. Unfortunately, Cookie just hisses to keep her away. We've set up "Feliway" odor dispersers, hoping that they will both mellow out and go all Woodstock on us.
09/20/12
It's been a little over two months, and things are going very well - no more hissing or boxing matches. Cookie and Ducky like to touch noses and chase each other - with Cookie often being the instigator. He loves to have his tummy rubbed and lets you know if you aren't finished by grabbing your leg. He has also become very talkative, so you can't mistake when he wants attention, or to have someone toss a ball of paper for him to chase. All in all, Cookie is a wonderful cat with a sweet and sometimes mischievous disposition who is fitting in well. We're delighted to have our new 'furever' friend!

PURRSEPHONE
Hi, I'm Rosemary. I'm a little bit of a thing at 5 lbs. Have been feeling better and up and exploring more. I am ok with other cats but prefer for them to leave me alone so I would not be a good buddy for another kitty.
I love to be petted but am not a lap kitty right now. I can be picked up and held but am not comfortable with doing it for very long.
In my past I did not get much attention so never learned how to play - some toys scare me, but I am curious about others. My foster says in time and lots of TLC I will blossom.
If you can be patient and give me time to learn to play and interact more, I might be the right kitty for you. I am very quiet and gentle natured.
Rosemary

Notes from Home
9/19/12 Purrsephone (Percy for short or if she is being particularly sassy Miss Priss) is doing wonderfully! I could not have hoped for a better match. She still loves to watch the world out the window, but now also likes to be apart of whatever is going on inside. She has no problem meeting new people and after introductions is happy to let you play and pet her. We have bonded wonderfully. Ever evening she meets me at the door when I come home from work. She proceeds to tell me all about her day, as only a Meezer can, while I cook dinner and after a bit of playtime goes back to window watching until bedtime. She sleeps next to me, until 6am at which point if I don't wake up to pet her she walks up my chest and headbuts me in the face. I tend to brush her in the mornings and as a result have the cutest most persistent alarm clock. We both are very happy. Thank you so much for making bringing us together!

THUMBELLINA
It's COLD out and you NEED ME. I am all prepared for cold weather with my soft, sleek fur coat and my adorable MITTENS. I am ready to sit on your lap, snuggle with you in bed and even sit by you near the fireplace if you have one. I promise I will keep you warm and comforted. I LOVE people and purr and knead as soon as I see you. You should hear my motor go when I get all warmed up. I am so easy to love and will give you love, warmth and companionship if you will ask about me and make me your own. Oh, yes, and I get along with doggies and kitties, too. Don't let me tortie points decieve you, I am a true sweetheart with much to give. Purrs, hjeadbutts and kisses, Thumbellina - or as foster mom calls me, Missy Thumbs
Missy Thumbs here waiting for the new year and hoping I'll find my faorever home very soon. Not a BIT of tortitude in me - I amjust a sweet, lover girl who can't wait to make biscuits in your lap. I don't care if I live in cold weather (I've got my mittens on) or warm weather. I'm very good with other cats and doggies, too, so WHY are you waiting to click on the "ask about me button"? I'm ready to sip a "drink" to celebrate the new year AND my forever home.
Purrs, headbutts and TONS of kneading - Missy Thumbs (Thumbellina)
Good day everyone. I just arrived, but I was in shelter foster care before I got into rescue, so my former foster mama told my new foster mama a lot about me. So, here I am - a very tiny, petite, sweet, loving and beautiful girl. I weigh in at just 6 pounds, so if you want a little girl, I am that .. If you want a non-stop purring girl, I am that, too. If you want a super traveler, I am perfect in the car. If you want a soft, soft coated lady, that's me. If you want a kitty that's good with other cats and doggies, better ask about me! And if you've looked at my paws, you'll know how I got my name. Foster mom says that I would be a great cat for someone who loves to have a lap sitting kitty.
Be sure to ask about me - the purring machine, Thumbellina

Notes from Home
Thumbellina has become part of the household seamlessly. It took a couple of days before she felt good enough about coming out from under the bed, but if I had just traveled 975 miles in a crate I would do the same thing too. She eats well and feels comfortable sitting on the bed on top of a down puff and has claimed one of the chairs in the bedroom as hers. She also sits at the window and watches the activities that are going on outside. She sprints around the house to taunt her big brother Enzo who is an 80 pound yellow lab who loves to play with her. And at night there are three of us in the bed.
4/18/12 Thumbellina is a lot more active in the house now. She no longer just sits in the bedroom that was hers exclusively when she first came on the scene. She moves about the house and is usually in the room with me and my dog either in sight or hiding somewhere, She runs down hallways in hopes that my dog Enzo will chase her. She loves to swat him. But is not afraid of him and walks around and close to him at times. She seems a little bit timid sometimes, but I am sure she is just testing things to see if she is doing the right thing. I notice her becoming a more interactive cat with the goings on of the household and know that when she feels totally comfortable here, she will rule.

CHATRI (CHAT REE)
Hi there!
I'm Chatri, which in the Thai language meens "Brave Knight". Nothing scares me, I love to play, will purr non stop when you pet me, have good litter box habits and a good appetite. Meowmy says I'm perfect! Why I even wanted to play with the dog between the bars of my playpen!
Do I sound like a kitty you'd like? If so, hit the ask about me button and maybe we could talk about it.

Notes from Home
MEOW! Brrrr-rp! o my o my o me o meoy. What a strange couple of weeks I have had. First this strange dude comes by with some other man and visits us at meomys den. They were kind, and liked me and peanut and the other kittens, and werenice enough to play with our toys with us--i even got picked up and particpated in a "moment of trust" as furry faced man called it _ he laid me on my back across his folded arms and rubbed my belly a bit. I was real good and didn't try to jump away, as I was completely fascinated with his whiskers...not as long as mine, but man he has a lot of them, nice and short and all around his mouth and chin.,,they are very warm to rub against. After about 30 seconds i did wiggle a bit and he immediately put me down on the floor, saying he wouldn't hold me against my will...well that was a nice thing to say...it also saved him a bit of a nip and clip. I tell you some pple just think they can manhandle me all they want. Not on your nelly. Then they left. They just walked out of the room, after visitng with peanut and letting meomy know he had a lump on his leg...he had to go in for surgery--he had something called a her-ni-ahh. didn't sound plesent at all. meowmy said i had made a good impression and thay if all went well the furry faced man would come back and take me to my furever home...and he took his damn sweet time about it let me tell you. Sheesh wat was the problem i ask you....log into a fur site with a name thingy and click about a bit and the select something calleda submit. not hard .. unless you ahve no tumbs like us. talk aobut that and my two claw tiping and u wll get a bite...ok, a lvoe bite.
Then oh great heaven he came back! furry faced man came and visited and we played and played whjile meomy was busy sewing in the room we can see but cant get into ... glass? he left at 9 pm we had to sleep meomy said he would come and take me home next morinng. and he did! o great heavenly joy I get a fureverhome...but i am sad to leave my kitten friends, and also poor peanut. i was sad and ahppy and cried and wiggled and worried and then we were in a big silver car-what strange smells and we were going so fasssst i had to stop hopping aorund in my carrier? travel thingy and lay quite still and wait, and wait...and wait. furry faced man kept talking to me in his burring voice, and plahying finger touch through the cage--i would nip and rub and he would laughh...he told me my new sister was wtg fo rme to get there buit would be a bit unahppy at first, and i would have to wt and give her time to acept me...he kept sying i was more for her then him, a kitty companion so she wouldn't get lonely when he had to go on trips-and one of the altar boys from someplace called Catholic Church would be staying with us so we would have someone in the house keeping us safe from harm, and feeding and playing and sleeping and playing and eating and playing with us until furry faced man came home.
Well things went well after about the third day furry faced man let me play in my own room (it was huge with tow beds to play under and a huge closet with mirrors...i look good. wow, look at me...i am silver and cream and cute cute cute./ i look good...o right sorry. mrirors i like mirrors.
my sister's name is Shiver, and she is a year old. took her a few days, and she woudl growl and hiss and run away...i am so tiny and she would run fromm me hahahaha. she kept climbin on top of something were cold comes from and food, and drink , a frigereraartor i think. all was getting good, and we would play and run...but then i did something really really stoopid. i was playing with one of my furry mice, and it was so fun and so almost kinda little real...and I ate it. and then, this one time, at band camp...i ahd to go se the vet (cat dr thype pple...eww) becasue i stiopped well, er, you know, in the litter furry faced calls is going poopy but that is crassss i think humans should call it #2. then i was tghrowing up becasue food had no way out...and then i didn't want to eat anymore and drinking was no fun...so i stopped playing, and furry faced man figured it out so fast. like in two days and then it was to vet- he went to work, called when they opened, and then came home sepcial to take me and then he had to leave me...***sniff*** i sowwy this part is hard to talk about...I was there, all alone, and then like that time at band camp, they shioved things in my bum, and a shar thing in my paw, and they shaved my paw...and they put me in a machine with magic rays and they could see me all naked inside. it was horrible and thy said i had poop backed up to my eyeballs...i mean really what kind of human says that?
They gabve me enemas, and a shot and iv fluids, and then finally like late that day furry faced man came, and he took me home *sniff*** and i was scared and tired and miserable and he was so gentel can kind-it was an emergecny he said and they were expensive but he paid it and said dont you wrooy about it all we ahve plenty. and i got home and shiver was a big bully and hissed at me and smacked me and ran away...just because i smelled bad. so i ate a litte, drank alittel and slept. next mornign i was still porrly and daddy fur face said we havve to go back at 3pm for check up and more magic rays. we did and most poopy was out and then i was quiet. iunti lthe mean man with the funny whisker, not my furry faced dadyy, some doofus anme rocky...whatkinda vet is named rocky? grabbed my scruff held me up and forced laxatone into me...several time!s.
sigh...***sniff** well, that finally came out all nasty and gooey and furry faced daddy had to wipe my butt with moist wieps caus i was spptitg the carpet...and then i finallhy got hungry. OMG i was fmaished and i ate, and ate, and then pooped and pooped and ppoooped and arte...and now i smell like me, and shiver is happy and plahying with me and we run all tghrough the house (we have three levels to play in) and we are back to normal and putting on weight and HAPPY!--except daddy doesn't let me sleep in bed (or the room now) becuase i couldn't resisit mucngin on the tube to his breathing machine and now it has lots of fang holes in it and the air rushes out and makse funny wistling sounds...i dont like him haveing the thingy on his nose to breathe through, so i pounce on his hed while he is asleep, and then shove my wet nose in his ear...he calls is a wet willy and I wake him up to play play play ... ah well...we are happy, in good health, and settled into the home. shiver likes me, and all is now well with the world.
I will send more later!
Ok so its finally later...well, a lot later but daddy fur face has been really busy (i dont know with what) but anyway he is finally allowing me to have my note posted, and this time we have some pictures to go ... not the kind of me naked on the inside like what the magic machine took when i was at the vet. I have been doing so much better, and i hvae grown really really big; umm maybe a little too big aorudn my tummy but i am still growing and so some of that will go away ... i am happy and shiver is happy and we play and sleep and have so much fun...i like to give her baths' and she lets me most times, and she is funny and growls and hisses and makes funny noises when we wrestle...I am a ninja kitty and nver make a sound...unless furry faced man throws toys in the air over me..then i get vocal and go chase them.
We got to watch our fiirst snowfalls , one was just pitiful but the second one lasted 26 hours and left two + feet of snow...we went out on our screened balcony and put our paws in it...wheee it was white and cold and tasted funny but we loved it!
Enjoy the pictures!
so then what news to tell - it has been quite a long time - daddy fur face had to go away and so he asked his litter mate (Uncle VJ) to come and live in our home and take care of us. VJ did come to live in the home and he brought two more kitties with him...Shiver and I knew them by their smell (daddy fur face sometimes would go away for a couple of days, and when he came home he had their scent on him) - shiver and I ddnn't mind that...we aren't like jealous people who don't like thier persons smelling like other persons...its quite odd really (humans - so well, human).
So Uncle VJ brought Tala (she was his big-footed texas gal he saved when he lived in Texas with daddy) and Nodin - who was a feral kitten in a colony at daddy's and his litter mates' meowm home. I ahve a bit of a secret to tell- daddy calls it coming out of the closet - which i dont understand since I met Nodin in the big back bedroom (daddy fur face snicekrs about this part- something about at least the lights were on) whcih is just silly since it was early in the day and the sunlihgt was coming in off of the glof course and through the trees - anyway. I feel completely in love with Nodin the moment I met him. I looked into the cat carriers - saw Tala in hers, and was like, whatever, and then I looked in the second carrier and saw Nodin - he is Orange and White and lean and long and has a really cool long thinck furred tail that he uses to corner (??) with. Wel the moment I saw him I was smitten, and made cooing noises and rolled on the floor and rubbed against the door of his carrir...daddy adn uncle VJ were laughing with (at?) me...but I didn't mind. From that moment we have been a bonded pair, and i follwed him around everywhere for weeks trying to make friends with him...it worked!
once we were settled into the routine and Tala and Nodin and Shiver and I were ok with each other - we never did fight or scrap and they were allowed free rein in the house within days of arriving (Shiver and I knew our manners - daddy fur face has always insisted on that - he's miliatary so discipline is a bid thing for him). Well, we got all settled and ahppy together and then daddy explained that he had to leave us for a while and that he would think of us oftern and Uncle VJ would watch over us in our house - and then get got on an airplane and flew soo far away to a tiny place in East Africa - he says it was a secure miltary base in a small moderate moosim couontry. He was gone for a long time, but came to visit a couple of times---Shiver and i watched and waited waited and we would look out the window and the noisy smelly thing that runs really fast was still there - so we were confused...why was it here and he wasn't? Uncle VJ tried explaining the thing that flies in the air, but we have never seen a bird so bid daddy could sit inside...so I think it is just a tale of some kind.
Then there was a terrible thing happen and Tala got very very ill with a chest cancer/infection thing and suddenly she was gone…sniff sniff – it was really hard on us and she used to come and smack us if we playd’ to hard and made noises…it is so sad and uncle VJ was hurting something awful – so I decided right then and there I would be his new best buddy and help him feel better….now all three of us our “his†in a way….we are the three musketeers and are all very bonded to each other…
Daddy fur face came back after 13 months – and we were all so happy he was home and then we had to figure out how to give him some love and attention and not hurt uncle VJs feelings -- we managed that and then, can you belive it – daddy had to go away again. He said it wasn’t too far this time, south to some place named foorida- -somehting about _the whole damn states’ a sandy beach – like on big litter box (I think he’s losing his mind). He said he would get a home that was on wheels and would come back with him when he was done, and that maybe one of us could go with him this time – but then he realized how sad we’d be if we were broken up and decided it was better we stayed here in our big house with uncle VJ.
Shortly after daddy got there, and he was feeling really sad and lonely – so he went on a Whim (I don’t know what that is) and he saved the life of a kitty who was sad and lonely too and needed a forever home – she was with a rescue like all of us and she is funny and kinda bitchy – her name is Thea (something about a greek goddess and boy does she act entitileed)… She came to live with daddy on the wheeled house last Novvember, and then this past march daddy came to visit us for a week in the white truck and he brought Thea to meet us – that went ok, I wanted to follow and be friends but she was uncertain, so stayed in her own room for a couple of days..but then toward the end of the week she started coming out and speaking to us and enjoying the home…can’t wait for her and daddy to come home for good. We will all be happy and play play play…when were aren’t eating and napping that it!
Here are some good pictures of me and shiver and nodin and Thea – Thea looks a lot like shiver in coulor, but her fur is softer and fluffy.

Notes from Home
Tyrion (AKA Reesie) is doing great. We had a bit of a setback after the initial 10 day separation from Patience, Zembra and Kanye. We had a false positive for ringworm which required another 7 day separation but on day 7 the tests came back negative. So, introductions began and by this time Tyrion was all too familiar with the noises (Zembra & Kanye barking) of the household. The interaction between Zembra, Kanye and Tyrion is one big play festival; they are all tired. Patience has proved to be somewhat of a diva and has been somewhat aloof. However, there has been a breakthrough; Patience has acknowledged Tyrion's presence, finally. So, with some more time I believe Patience will be a willing participant in the fun.

Hi Xiao here (pronounced ZOW as in WOWIE ZOWIE, what a nice cat!) Are you looking for a petite grown up kitty? That's what I am :) I am way past that crazy kitten stage and I'm ready to give you love and affection for many years to come. Foster Mom says I'm as sweet as can be and I have a little spunky side too! Nothing out of the ordinary for any self respecting Siamese lady, know what I mean?
I'm already to go home so ask about me, OK?

Notes from Home
9/13/2012 One year already! Time really flies. Misa is SO much more comfortable now in her home. She sleeps on a pillow above my head and is much more affectionate now. She still does not enjoy being picked up and held, but she will tolerate it much better than before. She no longer lingers at the door to try and escape. She loves to stare out the window at all the fun outside things. She is much more tolerant of other people. Before, she would make herself unavailable when we had friends or family over. Now family members are remarking that she is much sweeter and will come out for pets and attention when she used to just linger in the corner of the room. She is an absolute doll baby and everyday we love her even more :)
10/27/2011 Things are good with Misa, she is doing just fine. We think she is bonding with my husband, she allows him to pick her up and pet her more frequently than she does with me. Her and Rajah are still chasing each other around the house lots, but it has been a long time since we have heard any hissing. She is becoming more vocal now when she wants food. We suspect she was an outdoor cat perhaps at one point, as she has been hanging out around the front door and will sometimes attempt to "escape." We are being extra careful about that, but no problems so far. Everyday she gets a little more comfortable at home.
10/5/2011 We were able to trim Misa's nails this week without problems. She was VERY vocal about her displeasure, but did not struggle or resist. She is still a little fussy with Rajah, but they are getting along better and better every day. I was even able to get a picture of them laying next to each other. Not quite cuddling, but I am sure they will get there someday :)
9/2011 Misa is settling in well. We were worried her getting along with our male meezer, Rajah, but they seem to be doing well together. They are quite playful, and chase each other all over the house! They are both a little jealous, and do not like it if the other approaches the area while I am petting them, but are generally fine. I was able to get my first picture of them together on the cat tree that my husband made. They are hardly ever sitting still, and not usually so close together! The other night they both slept on the bed with us without any jealousy issues. They had only been introduced a week ago, so it looks like things are going well so far. I think after more time together they will be good friends.
Misa is still her sweet, head rubbing little self, but she has really become very playful since arriving home! She LOVES the crochet wand toy made by the volunteers! She is our little princess, and has totally stolen my husband's heart :)

Notes from Home
Hi, there! Miles here!
I have settled into my new digs very well, and I am gaining control of all the inhabitants with my cuteness and charm :) I have lots of food and toys and spend most of my time eating, playing, following my family around, and sleeping. I had my well kitten exam two days after coming home, and passed with flying colors. I was so happy that I passed, I purred at the vet. Mom says I am the first kitty in her family to do that! I do have a developmental issue with my eye which causes me to have difficulties when seeing things in the dark. But, the vet says I was born with it, there are no issues other than a limited sight in my one eye, and Mom and Dad love me just the way I am.
Big brother Marley is slowly becoming my best friend. He now talks to me instead of growling, and has discovered that he loves a good game of Stalk-n-Chase. We are usually following right behind one another. Big sister Cleo and I enjoy a morning game of King-of-the-Table, and I made a great discovery about her: she shares her portion of the wet food!! How cool is that? I LOVE food!! Cleo doesn't like to play as long as Marley, and she lets me know when she has had enough. I have learned that big sister Hannah is very quiet and skittish, so I politely sniff her (when I see her), and let her know I'm ok and won't hurt her.
My new Mom and Dad are so excited I am finally here. Mom spent the nights in iso with me, so I was not as scared. I have settled into the daily routine here. Mom says I walk around like I own the place. When Dad comes home from work, I greet him at the door. He plays with me and talks to me. I can't talk back; I don't have a Meezer voice, but I purr, and put my paws up on his chest to give him a kitty kiss. It's nice when someone asks you how your day is, don't you think? When Mom comes home from work, I run down the stairs so fast, she laughs b/c my hind legs go faster than my front! I am very happy to see her and Dad. During the day, my human sister Hope comes home from college for lunch and we play and snuggle on the couch. I LOVE Mom's craft room---ribbon and pens and paper are the best toys EVER!! Sometimes I crash in her chair if she is working late in there, but she doesn't seem to mind if I'm snuggled up against her. I love being around my human family, and follow them everywhere.
I am still not used to sleeping all night; I would much rather play. So, if Mom or Dad move at all while they are sleeping, I think "YAY! Play time!!" They are pretty cool with it, but I'm not! I want to play and everyone is sleeping, even the cats! I also still get scared of loud noises, and am not a fan of the phone ringing. It's hard to see in the dark sometimes with my eye issue, but I am learning to adapt well. I try to taste my family's food, and get frustrated when they won't let me have any. I just want to try it; is that so much to ask? I also don't like that Hannah gets tuna flakes and I don't! What's up with that?? Mom says my tummy doesn't like it.
Well, that's all for now. Off to stalk Marley who is now laying on my "S" scratcher...innocently unaware that I am going to pounce on him :) Hey, I'm a kitten with tons of energy!
Hugs and purrs,
Miles

Update: 9/10/10
Well, I have been in my forever home for a year now, and time flies when you are having fun! I get along with my brother and sisters very well. I had my one year check up, and am very healthy. The vet did say I was "fluffy" and I don't think he was talking about my fur. I do love food! There was the unfortunate Christmas turkey face plant incident during the holidays that I did when everyone got up from the table. It was embarrassing for me, but the turkey was delicious!
I love to hang out on the screened porch and watch the birds, squirrels, and butterflies. I also love being around my family: if they are awake, I am awake. There is a big rug in the house, too, that Meowmy says came from Turkey. Well, I love turkey, so I roll around on this rug every single day. I don't have a Meezer voice, but I chirp and trill and purr at everyone. Meowmy and Dad say I have changed their household for the better and are always giving me hugs and skritches and kisses. I still attack feet at bedtime, but only for a little while before I get into my own bed.
Well that is all from home. Thank you to SCRC for helping me find my forever home!
***
Me-WOW!!! It's been THREE YEARS since I found my fur-ever home, and so much has happened! First, I will say that I am very healthy, though I am a bit "fluffy." At first, I thought everyone was referring to my silky fur, but it turns out...I'm a big, husky boy. I do still LOVE my food, so Meowm and Paw play with me a lot to try to keep me from getting fluffier. I still have my eye issue but Meowm and Paw say that I am so comfortable with the house, people that meet me never know.
Here are some of my current likes and dislikes:
I don't like loud noises, particularly ones I don't recognize. I really don't like thunderstorms. Where does all that noise come from?? And sometimes the house gets a little shaky with the thunders. One day, it got REALLY shaky, and I was so-o-o-o scared. Turns out it was an earthquake!!! We all got wet food that day, so I decided that earthquakes weren't too bad when they're over :) I also don't like strangers, and take a while to warm up to them.
My favorite things are: scritches from Meowm and Paw, the screened porch, watching the birdies and butterflies and Mr Squirrel from the screened porch, the red kitty bed, playing with the bathtub faucet (I'm going to learn how to turn it on myself one day, hooray!!), food, treats, catnip, and turkey bacon from time to time.
But the BIGGEST CHANGE of all, and my most prized possession is: Willow. Willow is a mixed Siamese and tabby who was found by Meowm's daughter, Hope, when she was just 4 weeks old. Meowm and Paw decided to take care of her b/c her real mommy couldn't be found. She was supposed to go to my Grand-meowm when she got bigger. I watched Paw give Willow baths, and feed her, and show her how to use the litter box (he had to make a ramp for her to talk up so she could get into it). It was a round-the-clock job, taking care of Willow. I followed her EVERYWHERE! I was so curious!! Well, one day, after her bath, Paw rubbed Willow with a towel and wrapped her up in it, and put her down. Well, I pulled her out of the towel, held her in my front paws, and licked her dry myself. From that moment on, I was smitten, it was obvious that I bonded with her, b/c I also tried to pick her up and carry her around in my mouth every chance I got. Meowm and Paw couldn't bear to have a "blue" blue-point, so they told me I could keep her. Willow is about a year old now, and we are always together: playing, eating, sleeping, everything!! Sometimes we play hide-and-seek, and I get upset when I cannot find her. Although she meows, I taught her how to chirp. She is my very best kitty friend.
I have attached pictures of myself and Willow is in some of them. I hope this finds everyone at SCRC well. Tell the kitties there not to ever lose hope: they will get their fur-ever homes one day and be happy! It took me THREE TIMES to find my home. I guess the third time really was the charm :)
Purrs,
Miles
