Meet Bex

[terri]

Our "not so new anymore" kitten, she's a year old now. I thought I had posted these, but maybe not.


At around 5 months:





This one is just a cell phone snap in a dark room. Here she is showing her more mischievous side - she grew bored while I was painting my meditation/yoga room, and let me know how seriously she takes it:

Cute as a kitten, enjoying that sunlight. The second one made me laugh, how dare you paint that room??!!! even in a low light cell photo the expression came thru. lol

She's freaking adorable. I really love that last one.

 

[snowbear]

Pretty baby.

 

[Derrel]

Ohhh, what a beautiful kitty!

 

[terri]

Thanks guys!

Yes, Sharon, she is one of the most expressive kitties I've ever had. Watches everything, butts into everything, and lets her opinions be known. I rounded the corner at the end of that day and there she sat - so I had to hurry. She jumped off a few seconds later.

Brat.

Cats try to trick humans into thinking that they are only a cat.

Oh I love her!! And I love that corner buddha!

That cat looks like my neighbor's "Cat from hell as they call it" but younger. I guess the cat is one mean cuss and attacks people. When I go over there, she jumps on my lap and stays, purring away, wanting to be rubbed. Growls and hisses at the wife. The lady said I am the only person besides her that she does that with... strange

Here's my kitty, she is sweet but hates our dog.

Oh, my - cats can be very particular about people, can't they? Quite often though, the jumping and "attacking" is an invitation to play or start a chase game. Generally, cats have no reason to be fundamentally mean-natured, though it's easy to misinterpret. Unless of course, you're a dog.

Your kitty is gorgeous!

Lenny, we call him the 200 pound Buddha - he's made from concrete. Bex watched him being wrestled/walked into position after the paint was dry, which no doubt also helped her decision to climb onto his head.

Nope, this cat has serious issues... Not playing. I think there are feral cats by their house. My dog keeps them away.

Ah, I see. Of course, feral cats act completely differently and might put nearby domesticated ones on edge.

Best thing for feral cat communities is to trap as many as possible and get them spayed/neutered at vets who accept discounted payments for this kind of thing - keeps the colony from growing. A friend and I spent a few months rounding up the feral cats in a colony by the parking deck of the hospital complex we both worked at. They didn't love us, but it worked and the colony petered out from about a dozen or so down to about 5 after about a year. No more litters, and we left food and water daily for the adults.

The second one is quite amusing and cute.
