Hi, my name is Tisha. I've had cats all my life, until about 10 years ago... my SO is allergic to most cats, so my cat (The Dude) had to go live permanently with my parents and his uncles (my parent's 3 cats). And he's happy there. But I've missed him greatly... even though they only live on the next block over! I've just really missed LIVING with a cat.
Well, we went down to visit family, a couple of hours away, this weekend. We came back yesterday, with one of the barn kittens. Her dander doesn't seem to bother my SO... go figure. I'm not complaining though.
Her name is Cami (short for Camouflage, because of her coloring) and she's doing ok so far. We'll see if the house is still standing when we get home tonight. :-)
She was born inside, but has lived her whole life outside. We'll see how that goes, as she will now be required to be an inside only cat. We've got an appointment with our vet this Thursday, for her to get her shots.
While Keith and I were on the way home last night, we called my mom and she made an emergency trip to PetSmart for some Soft Claws. Cami let the three of us bumbling humans put them on her, and they were still on when I left the house this morning. Keep your fingers crossed for us. :-)
Oh! I almost forgot... go see her pictures. Ain't she pretty? Does anyone know... are her marking considered Calico or Tortoiseshell, or what?

P.S. I'm having an issue with the "attach link" button. It doesn't seem to be working for me. Any suggestions?
