Hi,
I have two cats or two cats have me!
That is not entirely accurate.
Freckles and I have have been together for awhile, she is anywhere between 10-12 years old. She was a rescued cat, so her age is uncertain, she has ben with me since she was 2 or 3, they really only guessed her age. She is exceptionally protective of me, and has been alone for the last year. Prior to that she had a dog for company, I seperated and I have the cat he has the dog. Freckles, has been licking "Tiger" from Winnie the pooh, its a suff toy. I thought she was lonely, but then tossed adn turned about getting another cat and decided agaisnt getting another cat, because she is stubborn, she is smart, but stubborn, and very protective, she is truely a loner. The first 6 months we had her, we never saw her. She came out for food and to use the litter at night, and that was it. She ate everythgn that was put in her dish, I just keep filling it up, and she got fat very fast, I think that she was starved before she came to us. After a while she settled down, and knew that there would always be food. She lost a lot of weight on her own. She isn't a cuddle cat, she likes to be with you, beside to you, and hates to be held. She does sleep on me, when I go to bed and when I fall asleep, or she think's I'm sleeping she gets off of me to her own bed. She is an indoor cat.
Freckles
Then Alex, showed up.
He showed up on my door step, and he is only registarted on paper as beign party of the local rescue, I'm not sure when it happened, but he came and he stayed, and he always felt like he belonged here. And honeslty I'm not sure what I've gotten myself into, because Freckles has never acted like a cat, and Alex is all cat. I also need to mention that Alex has been here for only - let me see, tomorrow, Aug 14th will make it 4 weeks. He has been secluded in a room by himself, but I'll post about that in the behaviour thread.
He was starving, with a distended stomach from malnutrition, and where I live, it is a tourist town, and every single year, those bloodly tourists come and leave hundreds of animals behind, because they are no longer 'cute'. Alex, was starving, and his stomach distended from malnutrition. I spoke to the local animal rescue to resuce him, but then said I will take him as an adoption, they didn't charge me anything, and they looked after the vet fees. They know I"m on a fixed imcome, but I will be donating as many things as I can to their upcoming silent acution. All I can say is that it is like Alex belonged here, so he stayed here.

Thanks for welcoming me to the forum!
P.S
This forum is driving me bonkers and its only my first post!
I am guessing its the java script programming. Normally in Firefox, when you make a typo it is underlined in red, like msword, and you right click to get the right spelling, and click it to correct it. In this forum all it says is "PASTE" instead. So please forgive me for my spelling errors I usually make a lot of them, and the'll have to stay.
