As Kyla pointed out, its been a long time since we did a census here in RPCA. So, here's the census questions (all are, naturally, entirely voluntary and you don't have to answer all of them). They're in three sections: current cats, cats that are no longer with us, and about us. (Please note that if you don't want to put your individual details up on the group, but would like to have you data included in the final compilation, you can e-mail me (remove the spam trap). I promise not to publish any data that can be traced back to any one individual) ~~~ Current cats For each cat, please answer: Name: Gender: (use a star to indicate intactness. ie, a breeding queen would be female*) Breed: (DSH, for example) Colour: (eg, tabby & white) Age: (if unsure, indicate a 'best guess' with a star eg, "about four" would be 4*) Source of cat: Just turned up one day and declared the place home, neighbourhood stray, given to you, adopted from shelter, adopted from pet shop, adopted from breeder etc etc Cinder, spayed femaile, DSH, smoke black, 12 yrs, adopted from Humane Society at Petsmart Rosie, spayed female, DSH, gray tabby, 9 yrs, former feral I trapped and tamed We also don't want to forget the cats that are no longer with us. Feel free to list any other cats you have been slave to: Whe (Rainbow Bridge, Missing in Action, Rehomed, Unknown etc) Name: Gender: (use a star to indicate intactness. ie, a breeding queen would be female*) Breed: (DSH, for example) Colour: (eg, tabby & white) Source of cat: Just turned up one day and declared the place home, neighbourhood stray, given to you, adopted from shelter, adopted from pet shop, adopted from breeder etc etc Age if went to RB: Cause of going to RB (if known): Blondie, spayed female, DSH, muted calico and white, born to the cat next door the night our dog died when I was 8 years old, 22, died under her favorite bush Mac, neutered male, DSH, tabby, adopted my husband at work and convinced him to bring him home, 15, unknown Josh, neutered male, DSH, tabby, adopted from a pet shop when we had moved and our 6-year-old daughter said she would not be so lonely if she had a kitten to cuddle. We went all over looking for the perfect kitten, but all were too wild except for this one in the pet shop who reached out of the cage and begged her to take him home and cuddle him. Died at 14 of complications of diabetes. Moxie, neutered female, DSH, muted tortoise shell and white, was dumped and our dog and two cats (Mac & Josh) insisted we keep her. Died at 11* of fatty liver disease. About us: Gender: Female Your age: (in 5-year bands,14 or less, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, etc etc) 60-64 Birthday month: September Location (state, country): Texas, USA Number of cats you are slave to at the moment: 2 Maximum number of cats you've had at any one time: 3 How long have you been with RPCA?: Since 1997, I think. (If you can remember) How did you find RPCA?: feel free to add any other interesting data points if you like. Don't remember Eventually *I will compile the results into a set of interesting statistics (eg, something like "most people here own 2-3 cats, the most poular cats are DSH tabbies and tuxedos, most of us are between 35 and 60, scorpios seem to own the most cats, and most of our cats got RB because of CRF at around the age of 16 or so. This is what I hope will be included in FAQ looks at Mark) Yowie |

Current cats For each cat, please answer: Stanislaus Tejbir, our Stosh Age 5 Tuxie DSH Rescued from home where he was being abused Roxie Ryoko-Sakura Rokusaburo Age 6 Also Tuxie DSH Adopted from shelter Brandy Alexandra Age 4 Calico DSH Adopted from shelter Sabrina Katana Age approx. 8 per veterinarian Tuxie DSH Rescued from abusive home under worse condition than Stosh was, may her previous two-leg rot. China-Doll And Philip Drysdale Both 5 Wite DSH (China) Greay and white DSH (Philip) Bequeathed to us in a will upon death of shelter volunteer Not a one of these is intact, the vet has fixed this problem! We also don't want to forget the cats that are no longer with us. Feel free to list any other cats you have been slave to: Friedrich Amadeus von beethoven, Fritzie, my first love Black DSH RB 2003, almost 19 years old, of liver failure A gift from a friend who also is no longer; not from death but because he could not live with my choice of spouse Odessa-Doll Tatyana Black DSH RB 2007 of respiratory failure resulting from birth defect, 4 and a half years old, my poor doll Remembering with love and sincere prayers for forgiveness Adopted from shelter Ginger and Norman, cats of childhood Ginger ran off three days before he was to be neutered; Norman died of shock from a flea bath that didn't agree with him. May he also forgive my immaturity and ignorance, and may Ginger have found a home that wasn't as full of violence as mine. About us: Female 40-45 Born December 1965 Live in Buffalo, NY area Slave to six, which is the most we've had at once How long with RPCA? Since maybe 2004 or 2005. Fritzie had gone into "retirement" by then. (If you can remember) How did you find RPCA?: Guy named OJ invited me after seeing a cat post on something called alt.cats. world.domination. I have no idea what has happened to OJ since. I am eventually going to finish my novel, and set to work promoting the religion of Fritzianity.
