Title: Hello, I'm new and have 2 ace cats
Post by: tunafish on September 17, 2008, 11:50:23 AM
Hello cat lovers!

I go by the name of tunafish as it is the only thing both me and my cats agree on - It is yummy.

I have recently become the sole owner of two lovely cats who I have had since kittens. It used to be easier when I had some help, as it is even providing difficult to hold a cat and apply flea or worm stuff to the back of their neck without them wriggling free. It is also tricky putting them in boxes to go to the vets, however I love my cats.

One is a fluffy ginger tom cat called Yogie, who came from a cat rescue and looks just like a fox. He is very timid and somehow has managed to break his leg twice, which is why he is now very cautious and keeps a low profile when other humans are around.

My other cat is the opposite, she is fearless, her name is Matilda, or Tilly for short. She is an expert at catching mice and birds and she decided to join my house after following me home one day.

Both my cats love to fight but I think they love each other.

I need to network with other cat lovers so I have good places to get advice from and to try help other people if I can.

Hello Tunafish!  

Welcome to Purrs and to your two furbabes a big fat hello from me and Paddy.    :welcome:

What colour is Tilly, the mouser extraordinaire?  Do you have any photos of them you can post?   You should have lots of fun having a look around the forum, as there's loads to read and do, and there's the Cats Basket for chatting in.  Lots of free and friendly advice and stories to share.   Be warned - it gets very addictive!   ;D

Hello Tunafish and :welcome: to Purrs,

You have definitely come to the right place to network with fellow cat lovers.  You will get loads of advice and support from everyone on here ... we are very friendly and this forum is very active.

Tilly and yoggi are gorgeous ... I would however say I think Tilly is more of a tabby than a tortie but you're right she is very very pretty and Yoggi is a stunner.

I look forward to chatting more and hearing all about your furry family.

Sam, Foxy, Zephyr and Rossi xxxx

You're right Sam, Tilly is very much tabby but definitely has tortoise in her too, it all depends on the time of day and the lighting, which she looks more like  :Crazy:

Well, I have to go and find Yogie and put him in a box to go and get a booster, he is very difficult to convince to enter the cat box.

Any tips? I've got some gardening gloves for protection anyway  :scared:

Cat nip spray in the box is a good way to lure them in  ;)
