Kitty Newbie (But Have Always ♥ed Them)!

Hello everyone! My husband and I adopted a kitten from our local shelter two weeks ago, and after stumbling upon this site, I felt like it would be a great experience to join - not to mention, it seems to make a great resource for first time kitten parents!

Our Smokey was 11 weeks old when we adopted him (13 weeks or so now), and is a gray Domestic Shorthair mix. Cuddly as can be - he'd rather snuggle on one of our laps than play with his toys any day. He's an absolute blessing... and we spoil him to bits already.

Anyway, just wanted to make an introduction. Oh! These forums have helped already, too - we were feeding Smokey "Meow Mix: Lil' Nibbles" for about a week or so, but then noticed a thread here on how horrible it is in comparison to other foods. Now we're introducing him to Nutro's Indoor Kitten formula. Hopefully he'll enjoy that, too.

Here's a recent picture of our lil' Smokey:



So yes, I think this site will quickly become one of our favorites. Thank you all for reading my rambling, and have a lovely day!

Welcome to you and to Smokey. He looks so adorable. He reminds me of my Tino.

Hiya! What a cutie! Love a good rescue story.

Dear adorable Smokey, BeyondEternity and family:

Welcome to TheCatSite and we hope you enjoy it here very much! THANKS from the bottoms of our hearts for adopting Smokey from a shelter, and THANKS for switching to Nutro! It will keep him healthier and be more economical (fewer illnesses/vet bills, longer life!) as well as a lot easier for him to digest. He's sure to grow from an adorable little kitten-guy into a very handsome, sleek, self-assured CAT! with your excellent care.

We are 9! indoor-only, rescued, spayed/neutered felines -- I am the eldest at 16+, and Baby Su is the youngest, at just 2. Our devoted servant has been a cat purrson all her life, and is so glad TheCatSite is here for all us kindred souls!

Hi!, and Welcome to TCS!!!

...See you on the forums!

What a little cutie!

What a beautiful baby you have there!
