"The Russian Blue" book, anyone?
Hi all,
Does anybody have a copy of the "The Russian Blue Cat" book by Ingeborg Urcia that they are willing to give away for money (i.e. sell :)? I know that it's kind of unlikely because if you do have the book then you are probably a Russian Blue fan, and then chances of you selling it out are close to zero, but I want it so much (my friend would be so happy!) that thought I would try anyway. Needless to say IMO the book is worth much more than it was sold for in stores, and I will be happy to back up this statement when it's time to pay. Please email me at if you are interested. Yours hopingly, Aleksey |
I am a brand new subscriber and have a question - we have had cats for
years, but never 2 until last year when we adopted a year old female, part Russian Blue, after having to put down our 18 year old cat. She was a shelter cat and had free run of the shelter, so she was lonely and we got a 4 month old male a couple of months later. He was very dominant right off the bat and ambushed her constantly. They got along and played alot, but I know there were times when she was not at all happy with the constant ambushing. We also have 2 Labrador Retrievers and I believe Morris thinks he's a dog and gets along famously with them. Anyway, the female cat disappeared about 2 months ago. Morris is about a year old now and he's really lonely. We're going to adopt another, but I'm curious whether it's better to have 2 cats of the same sex or doesn't it matter if they are neutered to begin with. Any thoughts?

After reading that, "cat disappeared about 2 months ago", mabye you shouldn't have cats. Morris is about a year old now and he's really lonely.

Was it an outside cat? (If so, why would you want a pet you let go outside? That isn't a pet, that's a boarder.) Once they are neutered, it doesn't often much matter. Though I personally have found that, if you are going ot have 2 cats only, it's often better to have same sex, or at least, litter mates. LT |

.. Any thoughts?
Plenty. First, what happened to the female rescue? Did you ever find out? This is only one of many reasons my cats, all 6 of them, stay indoors. No unexplained disappearances. Maybe this is something you should consider before adopting another. They are so much safer and healthier that way. As for the sex, I don't think it really matters. I would look for one who has lived with other cats, (and possibly dogs), and is within close age to Morris. It's been my experience that males tend to be a bit more affectionate than females, but this is not always the case. I have met a couple females who were total love bugs. Nina |
