Hello everybody. I thought I'd introduce myself and my clan before I jump in (already did that, but it was important for me to post it).
I'm Chris, 31, married for 12 years, living in Colorado, originally from Germany. I have 14 living furr-kids and 2 Rainbow Angels. Besides my husband, there are also 2 dogs.
-Purzel - the first cat that started it all. He's now 11 years old. A blue persian.
-Romeo - a tuxedo persian, the second cat. He is now 9 years old.
-Sunshine (Angel) - Sunny was a red persian, and was 3.5 years old when we had to put him to sleep in November of 1996. It was a very heartbreaking time, still dealing with grief now and then.
-Rocky - the first cat that chose us in the US. He is a flamepoint and 5 years old. Rocky suffers from seasonal Asthma
-Smokey - Smokey is a blue siamese mix, talks a lot which is pretty cool. Smokey is 4.
-Samson - a read medium long haired cat. Very big but also very loving. Sammy is his calling name. Sammy is 3
-Muffin (Angel) - Muffin was my first girl and dearly loved. She was 16 months old when we had to put her to sleep from lymphoma. It was a terrible week from the time we discovered it. She's missed...
-Hershey - is a black longhaired cat, has a little overbite and is lovingly called Vampire. He still 'nurses' on my neck at nite, not quite as often, but still actively. Hershey is 2
-Murray -adopted from the Humane Society... he is a beige, large DSH. Very sweet. He has adopted Sadie as his baby and lets her nurse on him, Murray is 1.5 years old
-Pepper -is a black cat with grey undercoat. No breed available. He is a very loving cat as well, follows me around, and still nurses on my neck now and then. Pepper is 1.5 years old
-Grace - is a semi-feral tortie that we rescued in Denver. She is very shy and scared still. She is about 1.5 years old.
-Lilly - adopted from the Humane Society, a calico. Used to be an outside cat only. Very loving. But she bites if she's had enough.
-Sadie -adopted from my vet. She was only 14 oz when I got her. Soone to be spayed... she is nearly 6 mos old now
-Zoe - Zoe was adopted at the Humane Society as well. She was caged for so long, when I brought her home she was 3 mos old and couldn't even jump on the couch. She is a love bug, sleeping with hubby and I, close to our faces. She is now about 5 mos old
-Max and Chloe - brother and sister. Max had his tail amputated when he was 5 weeks old due to a painful defect that we suspect he was born with. I got them from the Humane Society when they were 3 weeks old to foster. They are mine now. Chloe is the problem baby. She has seizures and now a cough, not gaining enough weight and so on. They are both now about 3 months old.
That's it! If you have questions, let me know!
