Gorgeous rescued Peachy Keen has AIDS....

Well, Peachy Keen is doing very well now!!! No more yowling episodes...her tooth problem is much improved...may have to have dental work in the future, but for now, she's GREAT!!!
I'm feeding her chicken baby food and canned cat food, at least the flavors she finds ACCEPTABLE....
She eats her food by scooping it out of the dish and licking it off her pawpads..uses her right paw always...have you ever seen one of those pet TV videos showing a cat eating from a spoon that's held by a velcro strap to its little wrist?? That's exactly what she does...she just doesn't need the spoon...very dainty dining manners...
I've been working like a maniac on a painting..and Peachy's favorite thing is to sleep on the pillow I have propped up behind my back/neck..pressed right up against me!!!! Oftentimes, a fluffy little paw is draped right past me...
She's such a FABULOUS KITTY!!!!!!!!

Many years ago, before I had 4 kids of my own, I babysat for someone with 5 kids. There kitty had babies, and they kept all the kittens. One was a long-haired calico. She was so naughty, she would get into the kitchen cupboards and rip open the catfood and eat. Always left a big mess. But oh, when she needed a drink of water, she would dip her paw into the water bowl, fine as you please, and lick it off. She looked like a fancy lady, and held herself so proper. Oh, I wish I could remember her name. It was a man's name-maybe Harold. Such a funny girl she was, and the kids were very sweet, too!

I am following the story of Peachy Keen. Sounds promising, so far. She really lucked out when she chose you!

Thanks...I think I lucked out too...she's quite the character in her own genteel, elegant and understated way...and the eating canned food off the paw thing!!??!!! Incredible...
Maybe in another life, she was an aristocrat who had fancy luncheons with sterling silver tea services...
Thanks!
Ellen

How do you put photographs into your replies??? I want to have a couple of my kitties in my messages, like everyone else does..
Thanks,
Ellen

So are we to assume, Miss Ellen, that you have decided to keep sweet Peachy for your very own?

You got that right...Princess Peachy Keen is my friend...I felt that mental connection when standing in front of her cage at the shelter...I KNEW this cat was gonna end up with me...she's an old soul, I think....quite clear in what she's thinking...
We get along well...I feel like I've known her for years...weird.....and even though I've a herd, she's truly unique...I'll take some new photos of her and pick one and try to do the "signature" thing when I get some time soon...she's an extremely unusual color combination...

Peachy's doing well...just wanted to check in with everyone and update you...she's an alpha personality, regarding the other kitties...if they try and share my lap, she'll give them a whap with her little paw...except for Maybelline...they seem to have an understanding and can share my lap without any problems....
Pats to all your kitties,
Ellen and the Herd

That is so sad poor thing. Peachy I hope things work out

I was just thinking that I need to take alot of photos of the kitties...especially Peachy Keen..she's such an unusual color combination...I do have a close-up taken of her last Fall, if you want to PM me...
Thanks and Heaps of Meows to all your kitty friends,
Ellen and Peachy and the Herd

would like to see it please.

Yes, we would! I had wondered how Peachy was doing.

Please keep us updated on Peachy please.

Good on you for helping her, can't wait to hear more about her, and how she is getting on.

That Peachy...she's definitely queen bee...at least in her opinion!!!!! She is so sweet....as I mentioned before, she will only share my lap with Maybelline, the petite black persian...two divas of equal personality evidently....
Pats to all your kitty and critter friends,
Ellen and Peachy and Maybelline and All
