Hey all, I'm happy to be a new member to these boards and I look forward to getting a lot of knowledge from you pros. Here's a little history regarding my relationship with cats.


I found my first cat 3 years ago, she was a small tabby kitten that just showed up at the door looking for scraps. A few months later, we moved to a new house in the same town, so I took her with me. For some reason, my mom wouldn't let me keep her indoors unless I was home, so Kitten (that was her name, original eh?
) would have to wait outside until I would get home from school. But sadly, only after about a month of living in the new house, either someone stole her, or a coyote got a hold of her.


Now, out of the blue about three days ago, my mom tells me about a cute stray kitten she saw while visiting my Grandma and she asked if I wanted it.
I freaked out! I couldn't believe I was finally going to get another kitten. She is the cutest little thing ever
! She's all black with white toes, and some white on her belly and mouth.

If you're still reading, thanks for looking over my thread!

Oh, duh, forgot to mention her name. Her full name given by my Grandma is "Figaro" because she looks like the cat from Pinocchio, but I think that's too masculine, so I call her Fiji, like the islands.

Thanks all for the welcome!
And yes, she is an inside at all times kitty!
When I get home from work today I'll post a bunch of new pics. The one of her sleeping (
) is the first one I've ever taken of her. I have a feeling she'll be a photogenic kitten!

I got all choked up when I read your thread. What a wonderful story and what a cute fur baby. You must indeed be thrilled. Congratulations! Your mom sounds like a really nice mom to have.

We just got a new baby too. I have his picture but I don't know how to post it. He has my husband wrapped around his "paw". It is so cool to watch them together.

Enjoy your kitten!

Fiji is a doll. You understand, of course, that you have created an addiction, here, which will have to be fed -- with pictures -- lots of them!


Congratulations on your little sweetie, and welcome to TCS!
