  1. Hey Everybody,
    I am Tazziesmom. I adopted a 6wk old kitten from a rescue shelter in May. His name is Taz. He is a brown tiger striped Tabby. He is as cute as a button and very gentle. Actually he picked me. His eyes were saying please take me home with you. He was placed in my arms by one of the workers and cuddled with me without extending his claws. He patted my cheek and purred (no claws). I brought him home and to this day he is still that same gentle kitty I met back in May. He is smart and very aloof. We have nicked named him Houdini because he has the ability to escape from his crate while it is still locked and many other tricks of the cat trade. He loves to be handled and he loves to knead. My family loves him. He has taken to me and one of the twin girls. He tends to sit on my head or my shoulder. We spend hours watching the crazy things he does when he plays. Ohh! He does what we call the mid-night run. He gets a burst of energy late at night and races around like Speedy Gonzalez. Well, I guess it's time for me to take a breather. Because, I could go on forever.

    I'll be talking with you soon!

  2. Hi and welcome to TDK Tazziesmom! Tazzie sounds beautiful and definitely displays the same characteristics as many furrriends here on this site. My 4 have displayed the same 'Catcar Speedway' behavior late at night. In fact now that the weather is nice we often hear them at all hours doing the same thing up on our roof! You're so wonderful for adopting your little one from the shelter. I wish you many years of purrrrrfectly happy furrriendship together! If you click on my name beside my post you can go to my Catster link and see my cat kids! I'd sure like to see a picture of your furrbaby!

  5. Thanks for your quick responses. Didn't think I'd get a reply so quickly. My Taz would like to post his pics, but his human does'nt know how. Can someone help meow-out.

    Thanx.

  6. Oh, Tazzie - you sound like the most purrfect kitty and have obviously won your mama over completely!

    Tazziesmom, I am NOT the computer expert on TDK. But, you can go to catster.com (look on any of our pink names) and set up a page for Tazzie. Then, go to your TDK profile and by the link for website address (or something like that), enter your new catster address.

    I'm sorry, that's probably as clear as mud. Those of you who can explain it way better, please help!

  10. I now only have one sweet furbaby Tigger a two year old grey/black Tabby. He misses his older"brother" Bandit which was my granddaughter's cat that went with her to her new home in April.All of our pets have always been shelter or farm cats, but are licensed,always up to date on shots,always fixed & indoor only.My daughter brought over her latest stray a tuxedo male about 10 months old. My cat & hers got on great. Her other 3 won't accept him,but she won't give him up either. We are forever people, our animals stay with us through their whole lives.My 15 year old Lhasa-terrier mix 9lb.Buffy a female had to be put down 11-26-07,due to canine recognitive disorder & eyesight, joints, hearing, everything failing like a human with Alzheimer's.I'm 59 & too old to start with another dog, cats I can stay indoors with & spoil.
    They have all the best Armarkat condos,window perches, toys,interactive batter toys,nowhere is off limits to them.Tigger eats Newman's own organics dry dog food, Bandit has to be on Hills rx diet C/D.They have deluxe litter boxes which I use Tidy cats crystal blend in. They drink bottled water through a Drinkwell Platinum water fountain.I have two so one is always clean & ready to go.Anyone can help my email is kozbiel77@sbcglobal.net
    I love the munchkins in Milwaukee where I used to live I was wondering who I would contact about adopting two when old enough? I'd bring my vet's paperwork for all my pets & license. a home inspection would be fine.Does anyone know who to contact? My Tigger though a male is small about 8&1/2 to 9 lbs.
    Thanks for any help,I'm about 25 miles from Milwaukee.

  11. Judith, it sounds like your cats live better than I do!

    As far as adopting a munchkin, I googled "munchkin cats in Milwaukee" and turned up a bunch of classifieds, which always make me a little nervous. Perhaps KittenMaster could give your e-mail address to the people who sent in the pictures?

    And Welcome, TazziesMom!
