More Luther Pics

Luther has really been coming out of his shell. He’s super playful and all seems to be going well between him and Dusty.  I can’t imagine it will be too many months before they are cuddeling. His temperment really seems to suite her and she doesn’t seem to mind him much at all. I even think she was showing off for him the other day.

Welcome Luther

Yesterday dh and I went to Bideawee in Manhattan and adoped a new friend. We have named him Luther. He’s about 5 – 6 months old and very timid and docile. We hope because of this he will fit into our family well with Dusty – who herself is very much a scardy cat. They met yesterday evening. Dusty let out a few hisses then retreated as he sat frozen in the blanket I put him in on the bed (like in the pics below). He lets me hold him almost indefinitley but likes to be somewhere snug like a blaket or under the couch for safety if not being held. Pics are below.

Here is a pic from the shelter when he first arrived with his brother (the black kitty) last week.

Jasper

My sweet kitty Jasper passed away unexpectidly in the wee hours on Nov. 14. He was just 2 1/2 years and was the sweetist cuddly rascal I’ve known. It’s been harding dealing with his passing. Turns out he had a congenital heart defect and his little thumper just gave out. I miss you little guy.

Sick

Ugh. Being sick sucks. You get to stay home from work for a day or two, which is awesome, however you can’t enjoy that time off. You feel too crap to do even the littlest things. Boredom reaches new heights. Sigh.

Mulder

Today I remember Mulder. He passed away two years ago today on Thursday August 4, 2005, just three days after his sister, Sylvie, left us. Mulder was a gentle soul and always knew when you needed comfort. He loved to snuggle and nap, was enchanted with birds and liked to climb door jams. 

Really Cute

Okay. I couldn’t resist!

Sylvie

Today I remember Sylvie. My lovely black and white pricess cat. Sylvie passed away two years ago today on Monday August 1, 2005.  She was sweet, caring and a little quirky. She sang to the ceiling corners, adhearing to her religious practice and slept next to my head every night.
