Perhaps the scariest thing in the world is an old persian. One of my roomies a few years back had this oooold persian nicknamed the angry marshmellow. In addition to being crabby, she hated being shaved and would only allow my friend to shave her for 30 seconds, since she's too old for sedatives to knock her out during her hair cut. As a result, she is always covered in a variety of bald patches in various states of regrowth and long, narled, matted hair.

The husband wanted a persian until he met the angry marshmellow. Now we're just going to get a random shelter kitty mutt. We've named the future cat Mishmish, arabic (egyptian dialect perhaps) for apricot, apparently a common name in egypt. inshaAllah we're going to the humane society this weekend to play with kitties, so hopefully the husband will fall in love with one and insist we get one NOW, rather than sometime in the future.

What a pretty cat! Now y'all are making me want one.

I have a little white dog that I adopted from the SPCA several years ago, and she's like my little baby. I also had an orange tabby cat I adopted around the same time, and he died. I've been thinking of getting another cat, but we've been renting a condo and though our landlord has been accepting of our dog, I didn't want to add a cat into the mix.

We're moving into our house next week, though, so it would be great to get a kitty! Amed wants to wait and bring one back from Algeria, though. He thinks American cats are spoiled and lazy. I think he's basing this on my sister's 2 cats who are, I admit, spoiled and lazy. He wants a cat that will stalk mice and bugs and stuff. I, on the other hand, want a cat who will sit on my lap and rub up against my leg. And, of course, who will get along with my dog.

Have fun with the kitties, Jenn! And Jackie, if you want a cat, I think you should definitely go out and get one. There are sooo many cats who need good homes, and I'm sure right now you would dote on it a lot.

Much luck with your lil orangies Jenn! Female orange cats are rare! Enjoy them and make sure you get to name them! lol

Wooo! I love kitties! Get one jackie! A cuuute white one!

I always picked real names for mine, except 2... and of course when I adopted out the majority of them (I used to do feline rescue and foster care), I kept the 2 with abnormal non-names (mudpuddle and belfry) and only one real name (ptolemy).

So we have the kittens!!!

They are sooooooooo adorable, I cant get over it. They seem totally at home already and they've only been here for an hour! Running around chasing each other, exploring every nook and cranny of the house.

Wouldn't you know that my camera is out of batteries! But I'll be sure to post some photos soon!

Congrats on the kitties Jenn. I am such a cat person, well animal person in general but cats are what we have now. I have 4 of various ages including one little kitten from the orphan litter I raised ( I HAD to get rid of the other 4 dammit) but the one I kept is silver and he has 7 toes. We have a ball watching him play with (torment) the older cats. sometimes its better entertainment than TV. Post a pic of your orange babies when you can Jenn, and yes Jackie you need a kitty or 2 but please, rescue them from a shelter

Thanks, Sara!

I got them two separate kitty beds, but they snuggled up with each other in one. Awwwwww!
