2 years ago Memorial Day, I walked into a shelter with the intent on adopting my first kitten. It was a small shelter, but all kittens (even young cats) were already adopted out.. except one. He has been passed over many times because he was just too loud and noisy.

That was okay for me since I live alone, I wanted a chatterbox to keep me company. Without second thought, I took him home. And I named him Monet, after one of my favorite artists.

2 years ago:




5 months old:



1 year anniversary, 1 year ago:



And most recent pics:



Yes, I think, and hope, he's happy living with me after 2 years


I took him to the vet when he had something up with his eye, it was really cloudy and the vet could not see any scratches on the eye. 2 weeks of oral medication, he healed up nicely.
2 weeks later, he cut his paw pad on a razor blade in my tub. Had to take him back to the vet to get him cleaned and bandaged up. These were the only 2 nasty incidents I've had with him.

I do not regret taking him home that day at all, the best decision I've made in my life!

He is such an amazing cat


He was passed over so many times because he was waiting for you...everything happens for a reason.

I love Monet so much, I seriously think he is one of the most gorgeous black and white cats I've ever seen....his facial expressions tell a thousand words

I like talky cats, too. Our foster Tiger is that way; she's obviously used to talking to someone!

And Flambe runs around the house talking to himself. Can't figure out why he can't sneak up on anyone.

Is Monet still talky?

Monet is one handsome dude! I love his markings.

I have a talky cat and love it. We hold regular conversations.

thanks all


Monet doesn't talk randomly anymore. Usually when he hears me coming home, or he wants attention or I am fixing his meals. He used to chatter a lot, but I think because of my hearing impairment, I don't hear him all the time and he thinks I am ignoring him when he meows, oops. lol

He's gorgeous!!!
Love him!

This might be an out-there reference, but he reminds me of Mr. Mistoffelees from the musical Cats... lol!

Your story of how you found Monet really made me smile
! He is a very handsome kitty and I see so much
in his eyes.
I have to say that this picture totally reminded me of Rosie!


When Maia was a kitten she rarely mewed. Now at 5 she has something to say about absolutely every move I make, as well as when I'm not moving when she wants me to
