Hi there! I stumbled across this site in hopes to get some help with one of my kitties. In the meantime, I'll go ahead and introduce them. When I got married just over 10 years ago, I moved over 1600 miles away from my family and really needed a buddy. My husband was gone doing training a lot and I got pretty lonely. I found a handsome little tabby hanging out in a hammock at the pet store (a shelter cat they were trying to get adopted out). I took one look at him and knew he was for me. A year later I had started working and going to school and felt like Peanut was getting lonely. So I spent a few weeks searching and finally decided on a buddy for him. A sweet orange boy reached reached out to touch me as I walked by his crate and I was done for :) Oakley and Peanut made the cross country move with us from California to Florida and have been such good sports about being apart of a crazy military family. In 2012 a kitten found his way into my neighborhood. I took him in expecting to find him a home but he had other plans ;) Our precious Rudy boy was like no other. He seemed to never forget that I had saved his life and was the most loving cat I have ever known. My heart broke to pieces when he suddenly died of a blood clot to the lungs just a year after he found us. We all had such a hard time dealing with his death and our oldest cat missed his play buddy. So off we went to the shelter and our sweet Cody boy joined the zoo. In total we have our 3 kitties, 2 pups and 2 kids. so when I say zoo, I mean it :) Anyway, looking forward to meeting fellow cat lovers and getting some advice.


Our youngest, Cody. He's 2 now.


My Peanut. He's 10.


Big orange boy, Oakley. He's 9.

Oakley, Peanut and Cody. Oak is a little (ha) on the heavy side. We've tried to put him on a diet but his bladder stones return when he loses his weight. Double edge sword :(


My sweet Rudy - 1 yr - RIP

Hi and welcome TCS!

I'm sure you'll find great advice and many  like-minded people that loves cats!

I'm sorry to hear about sweet little Rudy. He must have been so happy to have had a loving family in his life and final days, so I'm sure he's resting in peace and watching over you and his extended cat family that you have.

On a lighter note, I love Peanut's picture! 
 that face! that stance! Precious! 


Cody looks so sweet and Oakley so handsome in their individual pictures. Do feel free to share more about them! What were/are they like? Any funny or interesting stories about them? We love to read that kind of stuff here!

MagiksGirl, he was yawning in that photo and I saw it as a perfect opportunity to get a hilarious photo. It was a big hit with our family and friends. I love it so much! He's actually the one that is sick right now. I long for the days where he was healthy and happy. Hopefully those days will return. Thanks for your kind comments.

And thank you, Macha 143. The fur babies pose better for photos than my own children so I take a lot of photos of them :)

Catwicks,  I missed this thread and I am so sorry, I didn't response you immediately.

 I read your thread about your baby and my heart is breaking for you. I do understand how you felt and I am here for you.

Hugs sending your way...

It's amazingly zany! I'm sorry to hear about him, I just read your other thread. I'm sure he's very grateful for all the love and care you have and are providing him throughout his life. 

I'm sending my best thoughts and wishes for sweet little Peanut.
