    1177782292jaxon.jpgJax was quite the runt here at six weeks old. He was a very playful kitten. He is very sweet and loveable. Jax is now a year old and he couldn’t be more spoiled. He loves playing with my other two cats and our new puppy. Jaxon is the best and I love him so much.

    Hi, dottcomm1. I think some of us misunderstood your post about thinking this was the Daily Kitten, not the Daily Rat. I’m convinced you were being humorous in your comment and you got jumped on. Please keep posting. :oops:

    MeezerMama, that’s so true about the cat treats. I have five cats…and Dr. Pavlov would have had a field day with every one of them. In fact, I even have one that I swear can hear the shell on a hard-boiled egg being cracked in my next-door neighbor’s house.

    Hello Alex,
    What an exotic kitten we have today! I wonder what breed of cat Jax is? He looks like a Rex but doesn’t have that ruffled look to his fur. Isn’t it interesting that cats come in so many flavors? I say flavors because it’s more than color that is different. They have big, little or folded ears; their heads are shaped differently, their coats are different lengths and textures. There are too many to name and even outside of the pedigree world, cats that look pedigree just show up at your door. I had one that could have been a Chardeaux, one that looked just like a Japanese Bobtail, and a Snowshoe all show up at my house at one time or another but I am sure they weren’t expensive pedigrees just wandering around the country side, but you couldn’t tell the difference. Cats are so amazing. I guess they are like people that way. No matter how we look, what differences we have we are all worth loving because under our outsides, our insides are the same-with some minor exeptions do to being boys or girls! Anyway, talk later.
    Your DK friend,
    Rosie

    Rosie, I love it. As I was reading about the differences in cats, I was thinking that we TDKers are like that and there you go completing my thoughts! I am back from St. Louis and hope I didn’t miss anything really big.
    Happy Tuesday everyone and Hi Alex!

    Whereas all kittens are special in their own way, I wonder if Jax is not a special breed, something other than the usual domestic short hair that greets us each day.

    And I have to say - I really look forward to the daily posting.

    Just in case you recheck this tomorrow. I’m from N Ga. There is a town there called Dahlonega(site of the frist gold rush) & when most of Ga was dry you could go to a drive thru with a gallon milk jug & they would fill it with draft beer.

    Sox’s Grandma said it was downright hot. I reminded her that Tucson has a “dry heat” so it isn’t really that hot! We have a laugh at that because we have heard it so often all these years. By the time it is 100 degrees it is just plain hot dry or not.

    Some of the ladies here have an obsession with Pierce Brosnan

    Dee is the official news service of TDK

    Kitten snatching is the official sport
