Hello everyone.
I'm new here, discovered this forum the other night when, after neutering my guys, I notice that one of them had one eye dilated & the other was not. Turns out that it was just a reaction to the anesthesia, since he was OK in the morning.
I find it funny that I am posting here since I've always considered myself a "dog person" I've had dogs my whole life & really think htey are the greatest pets in the world. I can't picture myself living with out one.
In the past few years cats have been making their way in to out lives. It started with Black Brotha, who was this big black street cat who would come visit when we were living with my mother while we were in between houses. HE wasn't really "ours" but we would hang out.
When we moved to this house we have now another black cat showed up, Petrolio. He was the first cat that there was no denying that he was ours. He infiltrated our family & within 3 weeks it was like he had been there 3 years. To the point where he would sometimes sleep with our 65 lb American Bulldog. He died in Feb.
So this June, while working at night I see this little limp by the side of the road, turns out it's a little black kitty. when I get out of the truck 2 more come running over. I shooed them back the warehouse that they were in front of & left, but I kept thinking about them. I thought to myself "If I see those cats dead in the road tomorrow I'm gonna feel lke a real a-hole"
So when I was done working I went by there & picked them up, but I was only able to find 2 of them. Again, sitting about a foot from the side of the road. I took them home, hoping to find a good home for atleast one of them if not both. Well, it turns out that nobody wants a black cat.
So we now have them both, they are about 6-8 months old. I would like to indruce you guys to Lears & Choripan:
when they were smaller (and uglier)
And how they are doing now
