So I immediately joined.
I'm living in Australia with a beautiful silver tabby that I got from a cat rescue, by the name of Minstrel Perry. (The rescue named him Perry and I didn't want him to lose that completely, but Minstrel suits him so much better!) He's somewhere in the region of 10 months old, which is a bit of a guess because he was in the pound for awhile first.
This is Minstrel with his older sister, Blossom.
We also have a foster cat called Tansy Patch and three kittens that we've named Foxglove, Patchouli and Nightshade. Tansy was a stray cat that someone had been feeding for nearly a year; when she got pregnant the girl who had been feeding her decided to refuse take any responsibility for her which bugged my partner and I enough that we decided to take her on. Neither of us had dealt with a pregnant cat or small kittens before so it's been a bit of a learning curve! About two weeks after she came to us she had four kittens, one of which didn't survive, and one of which needed our help to be born and to start breathing. We've decided to keep both the kitten we helped (Nightshade) and Tansy Patch.
