Congrats on the decision! If you were in Pittsburgh (and I'm assuming you
aren't) I have a few in need of a home in a few weeks. God I'm going to
hate to see them go. Have white ones (I think one has a home) and rest are
all black. Little Max is such a lover - absolutely LOVES being held. Sam
his brother, is ok being petted, but hates to be held, no matter what I try.

Good luck in your search, and yes, kitten season is upon us, in a few weeks
the shelters will be overrun again.

Well I am just sorry but I don't like not being owned! I need a furry

master to
put me in my place. I need rules. I need to know my proper station. I

cannot
just go through life free!!!!

So... it has been decided that we will be getting 2 kittens. We had been
seriously considering getting a kitten for months now. We thought Dusty

would
like a friend, (or maybe not). I have been checking out the fostering and
rescue sites in town looking for some new masters. I came across two

litter
mates, one all black, one all white, they were named Oreo and Avalanche.

They
were only 7 weeks old and had been raised inside with a dog and 2 kids.
Purrrfect! By the time I called they had already been "reserved". They

sure
went fast! Oh well. There are several new litters (guess it's kitten

season)
being fostered now. When they get a bit older we will go and put

ourselves on
display and see if we are lucky enough, or worthy enough to be chosen by

any. I
really want littermates. So if all goes well we should be properly ruled

by
some new masters at the end of June or beginning of July.

As a family we agreed that right now was a bit to soon to bring in another

pet.
This works out perfectly. We have a couple of months to prepare. DH

still
wants to get a dog. We figure once the cats are over a year old and have

some
size to them we can introduce a puppy. At least they will be able to

properly
whomp... er.. train the dog on who runs the show! My daughter went to

that
random cat name generator and has come up with a list of names for the

kittens,
she is partial to Ender, Uranus, Fluffy and Homer. (um, I think she needs

to
keep generating, no offense to Fluffy the dog). I have come up with Loki

and
Luka so far. Well that's all for now.

Purrs,

TJ

We were the same way when we lost our beloved Quetzie. It worked for us,
having Luna and Maya really helped us heal and allowed us to remember
Quetzie with smiles instead of tears sooner than we'd anticipated.
Littermates are the way to go, they do share a special bond. Male
littermates at least... Luna and Maya have issues, but then again, they
are girls... *grin*
As far as name goes... you have to wait until you see them so they can
tell you what their names are. Fez wouldn't be Fez with any other name
and Rufous just fits in his name perfectly.
Then again, Choco and Late (read latte) is a cute name for a pair of
hoolikittens...

Victor Martinez had some very interesting things to
say about Looking for a master...:

As far as name goes... you have to wait until you see them so they can
tell you what their names are. Fez wouldn't be Fez with any other name
and Rufous just fits in his name perfectly.


I had to do that with Felix. The shelter had called him Soldier. OK
name, but he made it *very* clear that that was *not* HIS name. Took
me a few days to figure out who he is. :-)
