Domino (Tard Tard) 

Age: 13 years old 

Sex: male (neutered) 

Breed: Toss up between Short hair domestic and Aegean cat

Info:

Tard got his name because when he was a kitten he was super hyper and literally climbed the walls if he could. He was born in 2002, a few months after i lost my favorite feral cat Scooby. Tard has been my only cat for years until i found a Grey tabby stray who i gave to my cousin and ended up getting her back because he moved out and left the cat with my "Cat allergen" aunt. she was allergic to cats. Tard love attention and treats, he will often be right beside me waiting for food from my dinner plate which he always gets a bite or two... maybe a few and more lol. Lately Tard has been Peeing outside the cat box and I will be taking him to the vet in august, because he only does it once in a while and thats the only time money will permit me to take him. being 13 years old Tard likes to sleep alot and when you move him out of a spot you want to sit in he meows a whine like meow like a little kid throwing a fit in the middle of a candy isle because they cant have what they want..... o.o. I fear soon i will have to allow him to cross the rainbow bridge. 


Gibs (Master Gibbs)

Age: 3 years old 

Sex: female (spayed)

Breed: Grey Tabby Stray

Info: 

Gibs was a stray kitten that wandered on my parents property around the 4th of july. we have no clue where she came from because our neighbors at the time did not have cats, nor were they the type to even want cats. The kitten had an injury on her upper lip, and we dont know how it happened but she was so freaking friendly i loved her instantly. However unfortunately so did my cousin, i was unable to keep her for the time so i decided it would be a good idea for my cousin to have her, since then i would always know where she was and i could always visit her. Unfortunately my cousin wasn't quite the perfect fit 3 years later he moved out of his moms house with his girlfriend and their new born daughter leaving gibbs behind. My aunt called my mom and told my mom to come get gibbs because she is allergic to cats and could not care for gibbs. so i persuaded my mom and told her i would do anything to take care of her. wellll.... she agreed, we brought gibbs home and then since Gibbs and i have such a great relationship we got into a swatting fight.... literally human vs cat on cat swatting terms. the fight ended in no injuries and a complete term of understanding of eachother lol. Sorry everyone i know that is probably mean but if you cant  bite the ear to teach it a lesson join its ranks, strenght and swat :D Notice i said join its strengths meaning lessen your strength so you dont injure the cat :D lol. anywho, Gibbs pretty much turned into a very overprotective cat after that swatting my moms cat and Tard. I scolded her alot but it didnt matter she kept with it :/. Today they are happily okay with one another, and give a few swats here and there. :D .... oh and Gibs LOVES giving kisses now when i hold her :D 


Nina and Sapphire 

 bottom                                   top

age: 6 months

Sex: Female (not spayed)

Breed: Lynx Point siamese

info: 

i added these two together because basically Nina and Sapphire are sisters from the same litter and we are so happy to have them. My boyfriend says that Sapphire is his but we both know thats a lie lol, we both adopted her as our first cat together and then ended up adopting her sister. Heres how it went. Sapphire was an 8 week old kitten and my boyfriends dad's friend gave him 4 kittens from a cat she had not spayed but had gotten pregnant then had kittens and refused to care for them. so they got weaned way to early and im damn amazed that they made it. we later come to find that this lady is a liar so we dont know what to believe from her at all. anyways. We adopted Sapphire and had her for a month and we enjoyed playing with her and she loved sleeping with us. however i could feel that sapphire was lonely so i talked to my bf about getting another kitten from his dad if he would let him. Well apparently around that time his dad decided to put the kittens outside permanently at 1 month old. i recall them being shivering and scared of the outside regardless of if they really had been out there before. One day my boyfriend texted me, "Babe i just want you that Sapphires sister is up here with sapphire we cant keep her but the rest of her brothers and sisters have gone missing and dad wants to keep her up here until her to be owners come to get her." so i said alright, but when i got home, i took one look at the sister and instantly hugged her. Then looked at my boyfriend and said, "you know Sapphire could use a friend." which he replied yeah. over time his dad gave us permission to keep the sister whom i had already named Nina because the "to be owners" would not answer the phone when my bf's dad would call. I was so happy that we got to keep her and it was like we had our own little makeshift family, (i consider it permanent because im not really fond of humans) So Nina and Sapphire today are 6 months old and we are getting them spayed and Microchipped this thursday along with my sphynx cat dipper who is already spayed. 


Dipper

Age: Almost 2 years old. 

Sex: Female (spayed) 

Breed: Sphynx (hairless breed)

Info: 

since i was 18 i always wanted a hairless cat because i thought they were so cute and it would be so awesome to have one. I always wanted to get one as a kitten because i have experience with raising kittens. i talked to alot of breeders who told me "having a sphynx kitten is harder than handling an adult" i feel they were wrong. I went to tacoma washington to get a 1 year and 8 month old cat who is now 1 year and 10 months, This cat has done nothing but stay in her bed, barely socialize unless we are at my moms house which is a bigger space, drink out of the toilet, and fight us during bath time. not to mention i barely see her eat or drink (if i catch her drinking its from the toilet.... ew) I love Dipper but she drives me nuts. IF i had gotten a kitten sphynx im pretty sure i wouldnt be having this problem. The first night we got her she howled and drove my boyfriend up the wall, (after a 10 hour drive on the road with barley any stops it is understandable one may go insane of traveling i see this now lol) and its amazing we made it home in one piece. Dipper will only socialize with me if i look into her bed and then she comes out and meows at me with a sly little smile on her face and sleepy eyes. .... not much to her... should she come out of her shell i will update this.... *stares at the bed*.... any...time...now..


Master Gibbs (gibs): 

Age: 2 years old

Sex: Male (Neutered)

Breed: Unknown Feral cat

Info: Gibs was a wild cat's kitten, he was in a litter of 5 kittens two grey, three black, all the black ones were friendly but they had their measurements. Please allow me to introduce you to them because they were so amazing but yet wild at heart. The Dominant kitten was a grey male with a big round head and beautiful green eyes that we named Ed. Ed was wild as a kitten, and we tried to get him to warm up but he never did until the very last time we saw him. One day we were sitting on the porch and Ed came up and let us pet him, he had never done this before and just sat there and let us pet him. he was acthing weird and not like himself, so we thought something was wrong but we didnt know what and wanted to take him to the vet but knew that if we did that he would be wilder than a hare. and the vet would possibly put him down anyways.we loved Ed and after that day never saw him again. After that the female grey kitten we named Missy, because she was stuck up and wild wouldnt let us touch her at all came up missing. We were stuck with three male cats all black. Pouncer, Dot and Gibs. pouncer was as wild as Ed but he would let us touch him for 2 seconds then he was done. Completely okay but still unsure of us. we dont know what happend to pouncer as one day he came back after breeding season and all of sudden he was meowing friendly meows at us but keeping his distance. after that we never saw him. I wanted so badly to help him because when he was walking around he would not walk on his leg back leg and it killed me that he was so wild because he was so beautiful. We never saw him agian which left us Dot, and Gibs. Dot and Gibs were the most friendly however Dot, Like pouncer was unsure but definitely okay with humans. Dot came up missing after breeding season no acting weird just gone. Lately we have had a cat with the same markings only one foot with white on its two toes... we think it might be Dot but we are not sure as Gibs and the Dot look alike play like brothers. However dot never had a white spot on his paw. Just on his chest and that was it. However Gibs now was the only one left and we made sure to keep him around. We loved on him and held him and he would roll and purr. he is so cute. We got pigs in march of 2014 and gibs all of a sudden ended up with an abbscess on his tail. I wasted no time i took him to the vet and got him neutered and his tail taken care of. He was glad even though he had to stay inside for 10 days (my own doing wanted to keep an eye on him especially with having to give him medicine) he was okay with being inside til he had, had enough of being put in the crate at night then he started howling so i put him back outside and he was fine. still to this day he is the friendly cat that we have always had and we hope we will be able to keep him forever. I did get him microchipped so if someone shall find him or hit him and hes injured or killed we will be notified. sadly but at least our minds would be at peace. He is my mom's outside cat mouser but he is mine becauce i registered him under my name and my mom pushes him away when he wants to be loved on *facepalm* lol sooo thats my kitties :D my little furry children .inside and out :D
