Stella Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Hey Tinytawnykitten, how is Minty going? I am getting a cat this weekend, hopefully. She is being spayed today and I just can't wait to get her! :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 what sort of cat ? I will sit here waiting for photos till I fall asleep........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Well, that might take a while... I don't have any yet, and won't get her until at least friday, depending on how she goes after the op. She is about one year old (I hate kittens), was living rough and had kittens so my friend took her in and rehomed the kittens when big enough. She may be bit of a work-in-progress but seemed to warm to her current keepers reasonably fast, so I think she will be ok. Aside from that she is slender, delicately tabby, with big green eyes and is TOTALLY going to be doted on and loved to death come the weekend :happy1: :happy2: :happy1: :nilly: :roll: :sick: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophia Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 that isn't a kitten, it's a pouting fluff ball with eyes :love: ...... will just sit here waiting for Stella's new kitty photos anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 kittens are fluffy balls of cuteness.... WITH SPINES!!! :evil: Apparently the cat came through her spaying just fine, lets hope I get her tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 kittens are fluffy balls of cuteness.... WITH SPINES!!! :evil: Yeah the sharp buts don't go away with age unfortunately. We ended up putting our cat down because she became too aggressive towards my other half, had some serious behavioural issues. Will never own another...

tinytawnykitten Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 Hey Tinytawnykitten, how is Minty going? I am getting a cat this weekend, hopefully. She is being spayed today and I just can't wait to get her! :bounce: Hi Stella, Minty is good thanks She had a bout of flu and a gunky eye but is coming right now after some antibiotics. She is very clingy and snuggly and follows me everywhere and sleeps on our bed at night. Post some photos of your little cat won't you. Minty is 6 months old so not exactly kitten. I didn't want a tiny wee kitten that could so easily be hurt by one of my children, but also I wanted a cat I could let outside fairly early on. She hasn't been outside yet, but now she's had her third vaccination and gotten over her flu we will let her out in a fortnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 Cat flu is not fun to watch but is common in new cats. Glad she is coming right now Good idea getting an older kitten. The little ones are so scratchy, and yes, easy for kids to damage. I took my kitty home yesterday and she has spent most of the time since underneath the bed. Oh apart from a big explore last night, keeping me awake! But she found her food and litter tray, and clearly feels quite safe under the bed, so I am happy. I am sure she will settle in but will take a while. Am just letting her go at her own pace, can't rush these things. I knew I should have taken a photo as I opened the box - it might be a while before I can post anything! I will as soon as I have one though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 How was the poor thing raised?? I would beat her with a pipe if she poo'd inside and when she was naughty we would put her in a half full 44 gallon drum of water and put a lid on and make her tread water for an hour or two. :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophia Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 Aww what a little sweety puss. She looks a little timid still, obviously not used to the paparazzi yet. Does she have a name yet? Aww she is quite spotty! ps. my last post was sarcasm, in case anyone was thinking of calling the SPCA... David is offering to catsit for you I think Stella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 She hasn't been under the bed in 12 hours! Much more relaxed, though I still need to be careful not to accidentally give her a fright. This morning we had a big play session on teh bed, and I have never seen an adult cat chase its tail with such enthusiasm! (This was after falling off my narrow windowsill and landing in the litter box.... I did my best not to laugh or the relationship might have ended then and there) Still pondering names. I really liked Eliza, but am considering the shortened version of Ely might suit her better. Or Molly, my grandma's name, I think her birthday was around now. Or something ANZAC-y: Poppy, Zac, Polli... but not really liking them. Don't know, deeply undecided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Why not just call her Anzac? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zev Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Give it multiple names - then you can just pic bits to call her as your mood or her antics dictate! This is from a household whose latest addition is named Lil Malt Cheese Ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Poppy and Polli are cute. Ely is a town I lived in once but is pronounced Eel-ie, which could be pertinent for you haha Not sure about naming animals after loved ones, when they die you will think of that person all over again and dredge up who knows what old stuff from the annals of your emotions :tears: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zev Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 I dare you to name it Bob - but you have to pronounce it like Blackadder does! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 I still plan to name our next cat Entropy, I don't think wifey will allow that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 it would get shortened to Pee, and then PeePee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 it would get shortened to Pee, and then PeePee That would be fine. Current cats nicknames are big s***, little s*** and seetsy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
