hey ya'll

i've been reading and reading all about your kitties for some time now and thought i'd jump in and say hi. i just lost my 3 yr old kitty, riley, to an untreatable bladder condition. we still have his sister, abbey and i have actively started to look for a friend for her. she seems to be content when we're all here but at night and when she thinks no one is home, she cries constantly. i'm hoping to find a buddy for her this week. think good thoughts and i'll bet we'll find her a good friend for life.

But anywho I cant wait to see pics of Abbey we just pics here, and I am also sorry for ur recent loss ! Please keep us updated on ur search for a friend for Abbey tho! Well see u on the forums

Sorry to hear about the loss of Riley. I think it is great that you are now looking for a new buddy for Abbey.
I lost one of my cats of 14 years Flip just a few weeks ago, I have since added Linus to the family for the same reason you are searching for a new pet.
Sassy my other cat missed Flip very badly, they had been together all their lives. For several days after Flip's passing, Sassy moped around the house and spent a great deal of time looking for him.
That all changed after I brought Linus home, at first Sassy wasn't to happy have a different cat around but they got use to each other quickly an now are the best of friends.
I wish you good luck in your search and hopefully you will find an incrediable little fur baby to add to your home.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss of sweet Riley

- you must all be feeling his loss so deeply. I hope that you can find some company for Abbey soon.

i've had no luck with a couple of the rescue groups locally and i must say they were not quick to return phone calls which gave me the sad impression that they didn't want to adopt out any cats. i actually had to beg to see the cats at their shelters and when i did get there, they were not pleasant people to deal with.

so, saturday i'm off to a local spca to meet and greet 270 cats! yikes! i imagine i'll find a friend there for abbey. i've always gotten kittens from a barn but my daughter wants to try the shelter for perhaps a year old cat instead of a kitten.

do you guys have any thoughts on shelter cats versus barn cat? i'm thinking barn cats are less exposed to kitty illnesses but i sure would like to give a rescue cat chance too.

thanks.
