My first baby is Ms Kitty Fu, a fluffy gray that has multiple personalities and there really isn't one that is sweet. They, all of her personalities, have attitude. The nicest one, pretty much tolerates us. When we got Fu Cat, we had a dachshund named Oskar and we say she became a Wiener cat. She acted like our little dachshund. She actually picked up his habits, quirky little ways. I think if we had gotten to have Oskar with us longer, she might have grown up to be a nicer little cat. Maybe losing Oskar is what turned her so turdy. Oh well, what can ya do? It used to be, that I was only allowed to pet her at night, when everyone was asleep. Like she didn't want anyone to know that she fraternized with me. Yes I said it, fraternize! Now am allowed to pet her with people around, when she feels like it. I am tolerated. "Lovin' Man" on the other hand, can do no wrong. She will search him out, to get loved on, in public. That is a slap in the face, my face. The one that scoops her poop's, face! I guess it is her quirkiness that I love so much. I am positive that she thinks she should be an only cat. I am positive that she is planning some kind of "payback" for not being an only cat anymore.
Let me introduce Ffiona, my newest "daughter". Our wild ass little youngin'. Talk about hell with a tail. She is a little siames that I found at the Shelter Buddies Shelter close to our house. I was looking online and saw her and fell in love instantly. I called immediately and said.. she is mine, I want her! It took some sweet talking and sucking up to actually get "Lovin' Man" to agree to let me have her. So I hauled buns down to the shelter and got there at 12:05 and damned if I missed them being open by 5 minutes. 5 minutes and I couldn't bring that sweet faced baby home with me. I was devastated, but not defeated! So I called my one of my besties, Pam, and asked if she wanted to go with me the next day.. and off we went. I got to bring my baby home. After calling her by three different names, she became Ffiona. It fits her amazingly well! She is definitely a Ffiona. Her coat is turning a light cream color now and she has the most beautiful blue eyes. She is a sweet and ornery little furry shit! If I am not fighting with her with my hands.. she attacks my feet. She wouldn't play with toys the first week, was scared of them. Now she is Queen of the toys. I am sure she believes in the immortal words of Daffy Duck ~ mine, mine all mine!
Since the cats have all gotten to know each other, things are somewhat better but screwed up at the same time. The Queen of the house is still definitely Fu, and she wants everyone to know it, people included! Where Fu would not play with either Glida or Ffiona, now she will play with Ffiona, if not somewhat with a mean shit ass streak to it, but she won't play with GlidaBelle anymore at all. She just hisses at her. Like it is Glida's fault that we brought Ffiona. I can honestly say, Glida had no input on my decision to adopt Ffiona, but Fu doesn't give a rat's ass! Someone is going to pay and pay big!
Ffiona loves to play with GlidaBelle, but the girls treated her like a leper when she first got here. There was NO love in the house during about a two week period. GlidaBelle warmed up to her fairly quick, not Fu Cat. So Glida and Ffiona have become buds, Ffiona is such a bad ass though that Glida has to run sometimes. Discretion is the better part of valor for her. Fu Cat will now play with Ffiona but in a mean "I will smack you hard as hell" type way! There is a lot of mrrroww and pfftt going on, as well as the cat trees being smacked into the walls. I still crack up at it though. They totally know that I am their bitch. They take advantage of it. But what can I do...? This bitch loves her cats...
We have always had a house full of cats...and the rule our world too. Especially Jim, they know he has sucker written all over his face. Our cats are Sugar aka Shoogie, Mahala our crazy calico, and our newest cat is named Grouchy.Grouchy showed up her over the summer, missing her upper lip & no fur. Jim couldn't stand to see any animal in that condition. He started taking care of her and now she's in the house and probably will live a spoiled life forever now.
