I am adopting another kitty!
And not just any cat, but a spotted Bengal boy!
And not just ANY spotted Bengal boy, I'm adopting a little sweetheart goes by the name of Max. Penny's NEPHEW!
(Jack is his sire, and Gypsy his dam, and Penny is Gypsy's sister!)
For those not in the know, his history (with piccies) can be found here:
The incident at 9 weeks old: http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...&highlight=max
The first update: http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...hlight=phoenix
And the last bit of info that was posted on him: http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...hlight=phoenix
I'm sending a check and the signed contract off to Nial next week, and as soon as is possible, Nial will be shipping him to me. Max is 8 months old now, and his neutering appointment is this coming Tuesday. Please send him good vibes for his appointment!
Max was originally given to Nial's SIL to keep, but due to circumstances changing, she is rehoming two of her cats, and Nial knew I wanted a spotted boy, and thought that I just might love this boy even more knowing what he's been through - he really IS a miracle.
And I am immensely flattered that Nial and Teri think that much of me that they thought of me first. That means so much to me - considering I owned birds for over 30 years!
I will be posting current photos of Max in Fur Pics.
I told the furkids already, and showed them Max's picture. Here are their reactions:
Penny doesn't seem to care much, Ferris is already concerned that this will mean less treats and attention for him (he really is gong to be MAD at me!!!)
Ginger crouched immediately, and then very slowly and cautiously approached his picture, sniffing the edges of the paper. I could see her thinking: "GREAT, another pain in my butt on the way.
" LOL!
I am SO EXCITED!!!!
Note: Recently, I was faced with the opportunity to take in a cat from someone because they were moving and I just happened to run into the woman looking to rehome her cats at just the wrong time for me. I had already been planning on adopting another of Nial's bengals, but didn't want to say anything until an adoption was certain. That factored into my deciding NOT to take in this woman's cat.
At that time, I didn't know Max needed a home - I had expected to be adopting a younger boy. Now I am really, really glad that things worked out the way they did, because I am already head over heels with this special boy - you'll see why when you see his pictures.
I can't wait to bring him HOME!!!!
