The only really good cats we've had since we've been married have been those that just walked into our lives off of the street. Oh, we got one from the Waco animal shelter that we named Shadow, but he didn't come with a personality. His stay in the shelter must have caused him a deep seated psychological disorder or it might have been because we had him neutered, but we had him the longest of any cat, about 7 years!
Beverly is really the cat lover in the family but these first two cats were such good cats that even I took a liking to them. Unfortunately, one of them died of feline leukemia and the other was hit by a car. One day about six months ago a cat appeared on the front porch one night that looked remarkably similar to the two that we had earlier. With a personality deluxe, she won a place around the Phillips household with no problem! She seemed to adopt the entire neighborhood, going from house to house for a free lunch, but always coming back to us for her home base.
Well, as cats will do, she started looking a little pregnant and then a lot pregnant. She delivered four kittens 3 weeks ago tonight. From the looks of things, their Daddy must have been a Siamese because 3 of them have that look and blue eyes. The other one, a male, looks like Mama. So, in about 3 more weeks, they will be ready for adoption. If you are looking for a kitten, we'll be looking for a home for them. Send us your adoption information and we'll review it before making a decision!!
