Post pictures of your precious Blue / Gray / Maltese cats here!

Heres a better pic of the female kitten.I was vacationing in Mexico and found her all by herself crying under our rental house. Took her to a rescue organization for evaluation, she was tiny only weighed 1 pound. I named her Muneca( means doll in Spanish) I fell in love with the little girl and now she is a US citizen


This is my other grey kitty named Cassanova. He is a male I adopted along with his sister a tabby about a year ago. The two have really bonded.

Its so nice to see everyones grey/ blue kitties, they are so sweet!

Wow, what an amazing story about how you and Muneca found each other!   She is absolutly adorable.  And Cassanova is a fine name for your other handsome blue cat.  Welcome to the 'Blue Zone'.       So many stunning blue cats all in one thread, I love it.      

Horatio seemed tired after a messy sunday!.

   I'm not so sure @Horatiothecat, he looks to me like he is down disdainfully at his resident human and wondering when he is going to receive his next pampering / reward for being Horatio.       What a handsome cat he has grown in to.    

I thought I'd share an update on Conan! He's really growing!

- 1st he is playing with his handmade toy (which was reviewed for safety)

- Next it's him wanting to jump for his toy

- In the 3rd picture you can see him as a "mobster" with his henchman - "Who was it, boss?       

Conan is another kitty that has grown in to a seriously handsome young cat @MagiksGirl  , Conan and Horatio look like real blue kitty dudes these days.         

Conan definitely looks to have an eye for that new toy of his - is it foil or something used for the twine? 

Thank you! He's only about 4 1/2 months old. He seems rather large to me 

I used a balloon stick and holder and a 1" shiny ribbon I picked up at the craft store. I hot glued the stick into the holder so it wouldn't separate and I threaded the ribbon very well around the holder, which I also hot glued around and in the middle so it wouldn't come loose. It took him only 2 months to tear off the ribbon from all the hot glue and holder   He now likes to roll around in the ribbon (supervised of course), I really need to make him another one! he loved it so much. And they turned out very inexpensive: about $0.50 dlls not considering the hot glue I already had at home. 

Wow, 4 1/2 months?  He looks like he is going to be even bigger than Mouse is, and he is a fair sized cat (even allowing for his chubbiness).   I'm trying to remember, I think Mouse was about 3 to 3 1/2 kilos when I got him at 15 weeks. Conan's front legs look really long and nicely muscled, and such an adorable face.

Yes! He turns 20 weeks this Friday! 

I have no idea how much Conan weighs, I find that kitties don't actually weigh what you think they do. They feel light as feathers in my arms.. One time I peeked into a scale where my Tuxedos Wanda and Grinnie stepped on and the hands on the dial didn't even move to more than 1 pound, I got on it and it gave me my weight. It was a weird experience. 

He's really long! His new family actually calls him "tripe" as in "intestine" because he's so long and lean! I cringed a little at the nickname... oh, his honor 

Anyways, He has the whole run of the house which includes 2 beds, 3 long couches, 2 tables and 5 chairs. He really likes to jump on those and my boyfriend plays with him a lot, so he's certainly getting his exercise. He's also being free fed dry and has a breakfast and dinner with wet food. I'm really happy he's growing so well! 

How's Mouse doing?

    I'm sure he'll survive - and whip them in to shape regardless.

Talking of nicknames, you were asking about Pudgybutt there?     He's good.  Actually he's looking quite lean himself this week as he has been kept on a pretty strict diet for a couple of months now (got Mouse's bromance pal lodger of mine well trained now so Mouse goes over to him then looks at me then waits to see if I give permission for treats)! Plus the first Thrive fish snack supply in over 3 months. He's had loads of play time this week too so one happy cat.  Extra darts for the Nerf gun, new Zebedee wand toy, big pile of packing paper and 3 boxes on the sitting room floor....   I must upload some pic's from my camera of him in action around his cat tree:  I raised it up on a little cupboard a few weeks ago and it's taken him a while to build up confidence because he's not the most proficient cat when it comes to descent - unless you're talking about vertical drops which can be a bit painful (and worrying to watch). 2 nights ago he decided it was fair game to go up to the top and parade about on the middle bar of my sash window which is over 2 meters high, then made a rather graceful descent!

 Yeah, It's amazing what nicknames we can come up with for out bebees, err... I mean "Kitties" 

I have a Nerf gun as well!  though I hadn't thought of using it to play with kitties! Do you have any tips for that please?

Pudgybutt seems to be well on his way to being Leanbutt   It's great to hear he's making good progress  

Nerf darts and Mouse was an instant attraction!   He loves them. You have to make sure and not pull right back to lock because then the dart goes too fast - just pull back enough that when you let go the dart fires across the room or where ever.   And of course NEVER pointed at the cat - always somewhere you want them to go chase and hunt. 

Will do! Thanks!

Will be patiently awaiting news and photos of how this game goes down in your house.          

Thanks!  I actually visit Conan once or twice a month and his brother Grinnie is on vacation there as well. My boyfriend was supposed to bring them to my house yesterday since his mom will be going on a 2 week(or so) trip   I'll try to play with Wanda and Momma Grin when I get home! 

I'd also love to see some Mouse pictures! He so handsome  

Gee, I think I am always posting here but when I went to check just now I haven't posted a photo of Mouse here in months!  


The middle one gives a good indication of his size actually because although he is quite hunkered down there (and looks a little more rounded than he really is these days) that bottom section of his cat tree is about 70 cm 27 1/2" - if he stretches up he is easily 1 meter / 40" long from back to front paws.  You can see how long his legs are in the bottom photo.  No wonder the bandit can jump up on to my shoulders without difficulty...

Oh that belly BEGS to be rubbed!   

He is very large!   I wonder if Conan will grow up to be the same size?   He has some supermodel(cat) legs! He's so beautiful! His coat look so soft! 

the more pics I see of Mouse the more I see that Sascha did look like Russian Blue including tail rings which were not always visible and that silver sheen when the light was just right .

make the picture larger and you can see the tail rings

here the tail rings are barely visible, I always thought that was a fault!

 the silver sheen is very pronounced here

 see how his fur sticks out instead of being flat? Nice break in his nose too.

I really miss this cat.

No 'faults' @segelkatt  , ghost stripes on tails are quite acceptable.    Sascha was gorgeous, and his nose break is a much finer example of what a Russian Blue's nose should be like than Mouse's ever was or will be (he has a little bump just like his fur-mom does).   

  I love Sascha's pose with the silver sheen - the sheen and the fur are not the only things sticking out LoL,  his tongue is a fine addition to the photo too.
