Hi! I'm Naya and I live down under in Australia. I've had cats all my life, and I must confess I'm a bit of a sucker for siamese as well as cats that have had a rough life and need a bit of extra love and care.

I lost my beloved black Tortie, Muffin, in November having nursed her since January with kidney failure from malignancies. Poor baby was only 7. In December I was adopted by Bella and Darcy (both girls). Bella is a white/fawn semi longhair and very pretty as well as being incredibly cuddly. She has some colourpoint markings and blue eyes, so I am thinking she may have had some himalayan in her past at some point. Darcy I got from the vets when she was 5 1/2 weeks old. Her litter was very prem, and the mother abandoned them within a week. They was hand reared by the vets, but the whole litter was quite sick and sadly 2 were lost. Darcy weighed just 10oz when I got her. She is now remarkably healthy and has doubled her weight! She is usually too busy playing to smooch up to people, but loves to use them as a bed for naptime.

Its great to meet people who are as passionate about their cats as I am. Most of my friends are sick of me sending them pictures! LOL.

Hi and welcome! I'm sorry to her about your Muffin, but I'm glad Bella and Darcy (I love their names) are doing so well.

I know what you mean about having friends sick of hearing about your cats - without this site I'm sure I would drive my boyfriend nuts! However he's getting a puppy this month and that's all he can talk about now!

Anyway, we're glad you're hear and we're looking forward to hearing and seeing more of your cats!

Welcome to the site!

I'm so sorry to hear about Muffin.


My goodness Bella and Darcy are just precious! Little Darcy just melts my heart, but I am a bit partial to black kitties to begin with, and definitely partial to those hard luck stories with happy endings.

Welcome to The Cat Site Naya!
You have my sympathy about losing Muffin. She was very lucky to have you to love & care for her through those hard times.

Bella is gorgeous, & will be more so as she grows, I can tell! Darcy is already an absolute sweetheart, and she's just going to keep blossoming with all the good care you're giving her! Looking forward to update pics!
