 I hope I'm doing this right, we'll see. This is Maddie. My youngest feline friend at 7 yrs. of age. Was an ex's kitty who bonded well with my Mr.Tubbs. When we split he took her. She had difficulties adjusting and stopped eating and drinking and turned yellow. Ex emails me to I drove 2 hrs over to my old home town and picked her up and brought her home. She was indeed an ill Kitty so I called the emergency vet oncall (was a weekend). She spent about 4 weeks in vet care and me visiting her daily. The vet cited Feline Choangial Hepatitis. After 4 weeks of no really improvement I walked in one day to find a pink nose on my baby and life in her eyes. Have kept her ever since.  This is my eldest monster Mr Tubb, or Goober as my partner refers him to. He is my first guy, got him at around a yr and a half -2 yrs (vet estimate) and he should be about 11 or so now. I respond to an add in a local bargain hunter magazine. These people found him stray in the neighborhood and took him in. He's a fun one, willing to walk on a lead and talks up a storm!  This is the middle monster, Grams. A friend of mine had an apartment in a shady area of town and this little kitty would sneak in when she left the door open (unbearable hot apartment) and eat her cats food and use her cats litter. She was also very knocked up. My heart went out to her so one day I scooped her up. I managed to find good homes for her little ones and had her fixed. Very unique noises come out of her. Vet estimated she was about a year-a yr and a half so she'd be maybe 9 or so now. Anyways thats the crew! |

I have always have easily bonded with feline. Or I'm easily whipped by feline lol.
I find thier pesonalities just so intriguing and I havent met 2 cats alike. And trust me when I say I know a LOT of cats lol.
Gramma has always been mild mannered and and loves to just be around you. Not a big lap cat. I started working contracts out of town and she made bed time HER thing where after 9:30pm she'll persistently meow for me to get moving to bed so she can have her cuddle time.
Maddie is another independant soul with a dependant personality. Hates being picked up but never wants you to stop playing or cuddling.
Tubbs will lay on anything and in any position (I've got a collection of 'old man with sitting with hand down pants' like photos of that guy. I learned a very valuable lesson from him about meowing to you kitties.......watch it or they wont shut up! LOL He's persistant and tries my partners patience like nobody's business! I've adapted like most mom's but sometimes we'll be doing our thing and I'll peek over at Andrew and it looks like his heads going to explode if I don't do something. On the flip side he's mum's baby and most nights he's curled up by my tummy in bed. In the morning the minute he knows I've woken a bit he shoves his paws against my face and trcting and re-tracting his claws because he knows it annoys my to the point of waking up and feeding him. LOL He is also quite the artist when it comes to getting into the garbage having broken 2 baby gates when the garbage was under the kitchen sink, then we got a pail with lid and put a heavy jug on top, which he managed to pull the garbage bag out of still, but unlucky for him all the garbage fell out of the bag to the bottom of the can.
I'll have to get some pic/video up here soon of them before they think I've ditched them for piggies lol
