Rosie had "just" turned 2 years old when Sophie came along, and she was affectionate, but not as much as Sophie is.

She always came onto my lap, but only for about an hour if that, where as Sophie will lie on you all night

Remember she's a "tortie" with an attitude as well

oh Susan are you really considering getting Cody a brother? thats such awesome news. Now if Dennis doesnt agree let me know and I will help you convince him

you didnt honestly think we would try and talk you out of getting a second kitty did you?

Yes dan, I am considering! Can you believe that?!?

Go read my other posts...my vet calls me last night at 9pm. They found a box of 5 kittens with Mom that all need homes! (They were left in a cardboard box outside my vet in the rain.) Of course, she calls me first!!! I was like, OMG, you guys are killing me here!!!! They're about 6 weeks old, not sure how many males/females. My only concern is Cody...remember her litterbox problems before I moved? I just do not want to freak her out and make her hate me. My vet's secretary said I can take one home and see how Cody does and if she freaks, I could bring the kitten back. I was like, "Bring the kitten back, yeah, like that will ever happen!!"

Oh they were all so adorable! I meant to grab my camera but I just made a mad dash for the door when she called. I'll try to take one on Thursday night if we decide to get one.

Oh, decisions, decisions!!!

Susan Emma my vet nurse friend who i got Sophie from said the same to me, but i knew once i brought Sophie home there was no way i could hand her back, which is why i wouldn't give up on them.

Theres another sign!, Sophie came from a vets, and so are these kittens!

I know, right? I wish I wasn't leaving for vac next week! But that will give me time to make up my mind.

Now you have two girl cats...are they lovable? Cody is somewhat of a brat. When she wants lovin', she'll come to me but other times, she'll be stand off-ish. Now my old boy cat was a doll...such a love bug, always wanted attn. My experience has always been that the male cats are more loving and affecionate. But I guess it all depends on the personality of the individual kitty. Just another thought running through my head!!

Sophie is on my lap more times than Rosie, in fact she's on it every night and during the day if i'm at home, and sometimes i've got the pair of them lying on me, all 22lb 1oz to be exact!

But, when Rosie wants a treat the love oozes from her! Who said cats are dumb!

Yep, I agree with you, they know what they want and get it!!

They just found TWO MORE KITTENS!! That makes a total of 7.
5 females and 2 males!!

Oh geez, as if it wasn't bad enough before! Mom cat and 2 kittens have already found homes.

Oh thats great news! Any takers for another to keep their baby company?!

Hee, hee...LOL! I thinking, I thinking...I just don't know what to do!

See, I had a female cat Cindy years ago, and then we got Tigger, my boy (both have since past) but I tell you, Cindy HATED me after I got Tigger!!! HATED ME! And I just don't want Cody to be like that, ya know what I mean?

I know what you mean, which is why i was upset with Rosies initial reaction, but as long as you still fuss over Cody to show she's not left out i bet she would come round!

Aww you're not getting one of the Persians! *sigh* Definitly get one of the kittens!

awww sweetheart, I could imagine how petrified that Cody will hate you. I wish we could all guarentee that this would not happen, but what I can promise is that we will all be there to help you with as much advise as possible during the introduction.
