Hello! I've been posting in a few places, but forgot to introduce myself! My name is Mandy and I have two cats.

My oldest is a 4 year old gray male tabby I call Moscow--though I tend to call him Moss for short. I've always been attracted to the gray tabby cats because they're just too beautiful, though I've always wanted an orange tabby (I'll introduce my new addition next). So, I found Moscow at a pet adoption store a year after I moved to start college. I was picky, I wanted a gray, male tabby cat and I was determined to call him Moscow--and sure enough out on my venture to find this kitten I found him... he has since been my heart and I love him dearly. He enjoys a few sneaks of wine whenever my back is turned, he likes lounging, and enjoys to model whenever he sees I've got a camera out. Here is my Moss:
 



My newest addition came to me a few weeks ago. I was leaving to go somewhere and drove pass a little kitten sitting on the back of a trailer. I figured I'd pull over and get out to see if it needed anything (coz I felt bad for it being outside) So, I thought if it ran away it either had a home or was used to being outside...so when I walked up to it and said hello he ran up to me and jumped in my arms. He was all purring and meowing and he was very, very skinny. So I took him to my car, checked him out he looked clean and I figured I'd give him a place to stay for the night and I would make a post on Craigslist about finding him. I took him in, gave him a bath as he was dirty with oil, fed him, gave him a blanket and made a post of finding a kitten and then found a posting about a lost kitten. They posted a picture, it was of an orange kitten so I thought I found his home. So he stayed the night. I felt bad the next morning because he was too sweet and I didn't want to depart from him but I figured if it was the other way around and my Moss got out I would appreciate someone returning him to me. So I thought it was only fair. I ended up going to the house and the girl told me it wasn't the right kitten, because her kitten was reddish-orange with circles not stripes. So.... I returned to my car with a little kitten in my arms, purring and being all sweet. I looked at him and said, "What am I to do with you now?" and he head butted me and meowed within his cute little purr and I was like... SOLD. This is the photo I took of him after he head butted me and I was like, "let's go home, Buddy" After I said that he jumped in the back seat and settled in while I drove us home... and here is the picture I took after I told him that:

 



Ever since then he has been my Howie Cat. For the last two years I have been searching for Moss a little friend to have so he wouldn't be bored whenever I wasn't around, and I have been looking for a little orange male tabby kitten.. and strangely enough he is what I've been waiting for. It has taken Moss a few days to get used to the fact there's a new kitten about, but I found them both this morning sleepign together. I am just happy that this little guy found me!

Here are my boys:
