My new little princess

I am introducing my new kitty, Butzie. We adopted her from the local shelter after we lost our big, beautiful male, Brownie. He was 12 and adopted us. I took care of him, even had him neutered, but he still lived mostly outside. We had a great relationship. One day he did not come home for dinner and I was worried. After a week, I knew he was gone. 2 other cat owners lost their cats around then, so we figured a coyote got them (and we live in suburbia!). Wasn't going to get another cat (have 3 budgies) but I missed Brownie so much. Went to the shelter looking for another big, black male and came home with a 2-year old little female, tiger with white markings. Butzie is definitely an indoor cat, litter trained (Brownie did everything outside) and very affectionate. I can't imagine how she wound up at the shelter; she is very lovey and was even fixed. She loves me and tolerates my boys - hubby, son and budgies. With our daughter away at college, she is the only other girl in our house. She talks to me all the time, too. I really love my little girl.

Hello, Welcome to TCS!

Hello there, and welcome!

You know, you are required to post pictures, LOL! (If you have any trouble with that, just check out the TCS Support forum!)

Hello & welcome to the forum. My 16 yo torty cat, Coco, lives with my mum ever since my son brought home his dog. I wasn't going to get another cat & concentrate on the dogs. Then a year ago my youngest son saw someone tip something out of a plastic bag. When he went to investigate he found a 3 week old kitten. Blossom has made such a difference to our lives, I can't imagine not having her. It amazes me that someone could throw away such a beautiful little kitten.
I'm glad you found you new kitty at a shelter. She is very lucky you found each other, some things are meant to be.
Look forward to hearing all about her & seeing pics.

Welcome to TCS!

You discovered one of the most wonderful things about shelters, that many wonderfu, purr-fect cats end up their through human error.

Aw Im really sorry to hear about Brownie, May he Rest In Peace

Congratulations on Butzie she sounds lovely. Welcome to you both to TCS!
