Title: Hello from us!
Post by: abbienatti on March 30, 2009, 14:30:53 PM: :shy: Hiya! have joined this forum on recommendation from 'adelcatsprotection' so thankyou Jen!

I am Abbie and along with my OH we are the proud parents of a 7 month old naughty tortie called Atti (full name Atticus Bast...well why not give her a posh name, she was born in a barn LOL)

Yep, her mum was a semi-feral farm cat and for the first week she stunk of farmyards! Which i'm sad to say, i quite liked!

I will figure out how to post photos, once i've had a look around the site :) I love the cat smilies on here btw!

Looking forward to getting to know you all

A&A x

Thanks Dawn! Still trying to get my head around all the bits and pieces on here!

Someone said it's like a magic marker ran down her face and over her nose! I'd like to know more about torties because she's quite unusual with her colouring, i think anyway. She's not got any white on her, her base colour seems to be beige/fawn with ginger stripes all over, covered with black hair. She has one beige paw and the opposite hind paw is the same. I've seen 'patchy' torties, such as white with black and ginger but never any like her.

That said, my old cat was black so easy enough to categorise :)

Oooh, just noticed another reply...hiya Christine and thanks :thanks:
