Maui and Tiki
Maui and Tiki are two foster kittens that we took in but never let go. They put us up to seven cats of our own now. In this picture they are still at the shelter. They are about six weeks old here. They are now eight months old and going strong. Maui thinks that he has to sit on your shoulder all the time and will climb you or make a flying leap if he cannot climb you.415 Comments »

Thank you for opening your hearts and home to these lovely widdle joys of fun.
Wow what adorable little ones Thhanks for adopting such cute little ones bet they are even feister Desi our kitty would have fun with them. She is a cat that we found at a friends in the desert she was skinny and hungry we brought her home and shes now a happy 2 year old
I love fuzzy kittens. Specially the grey ones.
Are the other kitties in your home also Polynesian named? Or just these two?
Hanzo, Ichi, and Yuki are Japanese, Pele and Lono are Hawaiian and Maui and Tiki you know are Polynesian. People are afraid of what we will name human kids if we ever have them LOL
I adopted a 4 wk old grey kitten about 6 months ago and she also insists on sitting on my shoulder. Her name is Allie and looks just like Maui and Tiki. Also my son had a grey who looked like ours who was a shoulder sitter also. I thought Allie liked to “perch” because she was kept in the exotic bird room at the pet store and the parrots taught her how…..
.-.-.-.-[][][][] brings Benson back after much TLC is shared between hubby and Benson [][][][]-.-.-.-.
Awwwww just darling. Hope Hubby is doing well today? Thinking of you guys… Say Hello for me and I wish you many blessings!!!
Two beautiful silver fuzzies!
Hey, Tiger… hope that hubby is doing well….. bring him to HMB for some R & R.
Glad hubby and Benson had a good time! Still in my prayers.
How’s hubby today? Keeping him in my prayers, hon!
Hope things get a little bit brighter each day, Tiger. We think of you lots…
See, that’s what I hate. We already have 4 and don’t have room for any more cats like these two - dang it.
Guess you need to go buy a larger home now, hmm Instinct?
Yea, but before that I have to get into Grad School which will have me moving out to your neck of the woods
Then I’ll be able to make enough money to buy a house
It is so noble to adopt and foster! Hats off to everyone has ever has or ever will. These are 2 very beautiful babies, at first I thought they were in a stainless steel kitchen! Chef FUZZZ!
Gray on Gray FUZZ!
*gonna snuggle with babies for a few moments, utlill Huddys mama comes with her pack*
Smokin’ FUZZ! As in, you know, smoke is GRAY? Ah, well, if I think I have to explain it…
Anyway, they are gorgeous babies!
They look just like my aunt’s old kitty who went to the rainbow bridge about 10 years ago or so. I love fuzzy grey kittehs!
::FUZZBUTT::
What beautiful little fuzzballs. Since Huddy’s mama isn’t here, I am slipping them into MY backpack for a little while!
You go for it ppearson! And I am your witness that you were here before HM! When you bring them back please give them to tiger and hubby:)
Totally adorable fuzzbutts, I wouldn’t have been able to part with them either
Have a great week-end everyone
Awwwwwww, how beautiful they are. Look at those curious little faces. *snuggles Tiki and Maui but puts them down*
I’m nothing if not generous. However, next week, it’s back to beating everybody to the punch with my backpack.
Have a GREAT weekend everyone!
Way to go ppearson! Huddy’s mama is slipping a bit here, but seems as though she’ll be back in form next week! You are very generous to share your babies, HM. How could anyone not want to snuggle with Tiki and Maui! Beautiful babies! Have a good weekend, all!
Ok Tiger I have kissed their noses and rubbed their bellies. Take these two to hubby to brighten his day…along with a lot of positive healing thoughts from me.
These two are just GORGEOUS!!! LOVE grey kitties. Bless you for giving them a forever home. That’s so sweet how Maui wants to be on you all the time. Precious!!! My Perry always wants to be on my lap, and he will jump from something onto my shoulders too! He is such a LOVE!
They’re beautiful. I love their eyes.
I’m soliciting good luck wishes today–I’m going to the shelter to adopt another cat as a companion for my Bogey. It should be an interesting couple of weeks until they get adjusted to one another. But what is a good life without kitty scratch scars, right?
Many happy days are ahead of you! That will be one lucky kitty coming home with you. I’m sure you will find the perfect addition to your family. good Luck! 8-D
What part of CO are you in MerD? I live in Denver.
I also have a grey kitty ……..Benjamin. He is about 5 now and very independent and “HE man” like. But he cuddles with me now and again. Very big and strong that one! He off sets my older kitty ..Sam. Who is and always has been a very gentel and loving kitty. He is ginger colored.
Anyway these guys are sweet as can be and my hat is off to anyone who can foster…………..I”d want to keep them all!
Where can I get a back pack for the kitties I want to keep? LOL
I live south of Parker, and work in Aurora. I have 2 fuzzbutts. 3 yr old duchess, grey tuxido, mostly white though, and Dixie who is now pushing 16, she is my meezer.
Good luck with the back pack, Huddys mama is really fast and sneaky with hers!
Ahhh you live not to far from me: Tamarac and Hampden. I too have a 16+ year old kitty…..that would be Sammy.
HI Teresa………thank you …….yes I am trying to learn hehehe.
Hi Shawn-Just read your post from yesterday. All is forgiven. Thanks for the explanations. Looks like you got the hang of getting to know everyone. Have a great Aloha Friday!!
I did not notice Shawn’s post–confused…
It’s ok Dee……I was just being a cry baby and not taking initiative to get known. So I apologiezed for being a cry baby……….and now I have become a chatter box!!!!!!! hehehe! *still looking for a kitty backpack*………….hehehehe
Oh! I think the best way to “get known” on this site is to introduce yourself as new to the site! TDK is growing so quickly, it’s difficult to know if a post is from someone who posts very infrequently (and would like to keep it that way), or someone who would like to be more “vocal”. It’s kind of like going to a party–you have to mingle to make friends! And we all have to tell CatRancher and Susan in Ga to take the lampshade of their head!
So that’s where my lampshades went!!!!!!!!!
oops…sorry…. *catracher humbly returns lamp shades and mumbles something like “er…sorry…I was overserved…” and looks around for backpacks*
Sorry I am keeping my lampshade it covers my face nicely! I was not overserved I ran into a drunk cloud!
Went to a great museum today with my friend. It has a ton of stuff from Gone With The Wind. I even bought a mouse pad with Rhett and Scarlett checking each others tonsils out!
it’s ok, susan, glad you got some good stuff at the museum. Now we know more about you!!!!!!!!!!! Catrancher, didn’t like the lampshades anyway!!!!!!!
gotta love Colorado….am from Greeley
did you guys get much snow from last storm? heard you did
We got a couple of inches from the last storm here in parker. (playing hookie today) But there is still a foot on the ground in a lot of areas, especilly those not in the sun, from all of the other storms. Happy not to be recieving the 10ft+ like in NY! I think overall we have gotten 10-12 ft of snow since just before christmas. I wish the mountains would get more snow (snow snob
)
I’m also playing hooky!!!!!!!!! It is fun! Yes we did get snow and I too wish it would stay in the mountains……..
Hi Samantha!
Wallmart of course
Did anyone see Conan O’Brien last night? He made such a funny Wal-Mart crack! (And I happen to buy tons of stuff from Wal-Mart! haha!)
Me too Dee! I think I should be an honorary stock holder as I buy almost everything from there………Think I could find a kitty backpack there? I need to start stealing some kitties before Hubby’s mamma gets them all! LOL just kidding……maybe
Sorry to Huddy’s Mama…….I refered to you as Hubby’s Mama………was reading with out my glasses again!!!!!!!!!!!
And YES indeed it is better to introduce yourself and just chat………….Thanks fellow TDKers!!!!!!!!!
Shawn, perhaps this is a stupid question, but are you male or female? Because, we need more men on this site!
Not stupid at all…………but alas I am female. Sorry to dissappoint you but as you can see I am a chatter box once I get going. Let’s go recruit more MEN………I’m all for that! Wink…wink…..;o)
Oh, all women are welcome–I love the sisterhood! We could use more testosterone around here, though…
Says who? XD
haha!
You don’t need to be male to contribute testosterone–just ask my endocrinologist–
Here, here, now…what’s all this S E X talk…stop it! Oh, BTW, Kate, isn’t it true that testosterone gives both males AND females their sex drive? Also, I heard that if you give the hormone secreting by the pituitary when a mother is breast-feeding to a rooster….he will sit on the eggs! I can’t remember the name of that hormone…women have a TON of hormones….I know there are a few that I miss… *sigh*
oxytocin? The cuddle hormone,,,
that might by it… I’ve heard it referred to as the “nurturing” hormone. They say that is one of the reasons that breast-feeding is recommended because it releases this powerful hormone and the bonding between mother and child…
Wouldn’t it hurt to breast feed a rooster? LOL Just kidding………… I couldn’t help it. ahahahahahaha
haha! poor catrancher!
You couldn’t breast feed a rooster anyway….he’s got no lips!….LOL
very funny roosters got no lips lol i likie that,wishes for the one who has the sick hubby for a spedy recovery ,if you give me an email address i’ll send a get well e card your way,oh boy do i love those grey babies.
Good luck to you Christi in finding the right companion for your Bogey and yourself. I’m sure you’ll get picked by the right kit!
Hello!
How exciting to get another cat, a playmate for Bogey. Good luck and have fun! Let us know who picks you!! Can’t wait to find out!!!
Good luck on your new kitty! Just be sure to give Bogey lots of extra attention to he may be jealous (I know this from experience!).
Hi Christie, Getting another kitty is fantastic but it can also be a very stressful experience, I know. The intro is very important. Your Bogey might get mad at you and never let you forget it. So I hope you know the drill about introducing a new member to the family. SEPARATE LIVING arrangements until they are ready. Most definitely extra loving to Bogey. Good luck and keep us posted.
Also get a new litterbox for the new arrival, I have 2 kitties and 3 boxes.
We have 4 for 3 kitties. As long as we scoop every day, it’s better to have boxes in rooms they might get ‘trapped’ in,as well as water. Tiger, hope your hubby is having a good day, and you, and Bumblebee, hope you continue your recovery. Shawn, add my welcome and best wishes. I’m a lurker who has been posting, and feels like I know everyone.
Thanks Tiga and gangs MOM!
Guess I’m the weird one. No boxes, 2 cats. they use the toilet……most of the time. The kitten won’t use it unless I’m watching
I would love it if I could train mine to use the toilet, but I always thought it would take more time than I have. How hard is it to train them?
That all depends on the cat. Emerson was easy. I set the litter box on the toilet. One he was used to jumping up there, I put an aluminum roasting pan in the toilet with litter in it. Once he got used to that, I cut a very small hole in the pan. As he got used to that, I gradually increased the hole size. Eventually I was able to remove the pan and he was toilet trained. No more mess or smell. Ferrule, the kitten, has not been quite so easy.
That is sooo cool!!!!!!!!! Wish we could train our kitties…..we have 4 Kitties all together.
Thanks Mom for the well wishes and for thinking of me! You are too sweet!
Best of luck to you Christie. I know the right kitty will find you!
I hope you find a kitty companion for Bogey. Let us know all about it.
Wish you many happy years of purrs and cuddles with the lucky kitty that joins your family!!!
Good luck w/your shelter kitty.
They make the best friends!!!!!
Good luck with your kitty search. That is wonderful that you are willing to help Bogey find a companion and for taking in another kitty. Good luck with the introduction part.
Woohoo! You go girl!!!!
Thank you all so much for the well wishes. I’m skipping out of work early…in about 30 minutes…so I’m really excited/nervous. I know it’ll all work out. I’ll post next week with war stories.
Good luck!!!!!!!
Good luck!!!!!!!
