Now we have 2 cats too.....

Louie, a rescue from the humane society, he is a Snowshoe, and had all 4 paws declawed....you can see his little toes do look mangled. He is sweet, likes to "make biscuits" on us, but doesn't like to be held. We have had him just over a year.

And then there is Tasha. She was a stray who turned up at someones house in the country. We got her last September. I guess she is a Lynxpoint siamese. It was suggested that she had her right ear snipped, because she was a neutered feral cat. She does have a wild side, but is happy to be indoors most of the time. However, when I take the dogs out for a short walk around the block, she tags right along!

Beautiful cats, and kudos to you for givning a good home to these independent spirits.

Two very nice cats! We didn't get to select our cats, they selected us!

QT's thanx for sharing.

 

[SlipperFan]

What pretty eyes on both of them!

Cute. Wow, I've never heard of a vet that will declaw the hind paws. They'll do the front, but won't do the back(so I've been told). I wonder if his paws are mangled because a vet didn't do the surgery...gulp.

he was about 6 when we got him, so we will never really know...

I used to get my cats declawed. I made a decision many years ago that I would do it no longer. I've not regretted one little bit having cats with claws.

Great cats and great photos of them! They make wonderful companions. Dogs are pretty cool too!

Those aren't Cattleyas - too much fur!

I bet they don't smell like Cattleyas either.

 

[Heather]

They're lovely. Both have such lovely expressions.

Absolutely adorable! And count me as an "owner" who refuses to declaw his cats.
