New Kitty... and guess what his name is??

[kamik86]

Tonight I went to the humane society to look at kitties... we found 3 very very cute little boys that were 4 months old. 1 as pure black and the other two had white paws.

After spending a while with them we picked the pure black one as ours, he was SOOO cute and had an amazing personality playing with us and his brothers. He was the one that we were most interested in even from when we first walked in the door but what sealed the deal is when we learned what his name was... MICKEY! At that point I just knew he was ours.

We can't take him home for a bit since he had a cold and they want to make sure he is completely over it before we bring him home since we don't want to make our current kitty sick.

But I'm really excited and can't wait to take him home.

Aw...I bet he's a cutie! We have a black and white kitty named Henry that we got from an animal shelter. He was about two years old when we got him, and we've had him for six years. He is such a sweetheart! Henry also had a cold when we first saw him at the shelter, and we had to wait several days to pick him up.

Oh, it was difficult to have to put him back in the cage. We just wanted to scoop him up and take him home. I also should say that HE picked US! We had several cats out of the cages in a little play area, and Henry was all over us, purring and wanting to sit on us.

Congrats on your new kitty. I bet Mickey will be happy to be home with you!

Yay! Thank you for rescuing Mickey!

Respiratory junk is pretty common in Humane Society kittehs, I'm told. Both of our cats came home with the sniffies; one worse than the other. Luna, the worse one, had to be spoon-fed for a while, which I actually loved to do And now she's just fine, healthy, and crazy as ever! Her poor sister, Lola, was hit by a car just after we moved to a new place and didn't make it, but the respiratory stuff had cleared up pretty quickly after she came to us from the shelter.

we figured colds are common becasue they said they had one going around there and our Gracie had a cold less then a week after we got her too (we had to feed her some yucky medicine but then she got better quick). But it makes sense since they have so many animals and take in strays etc all in close quarters.

We were VERY impressed with the facility there though they have very large cages and some amazing play rooms MUCH MUCH bettter then the place we got Gracie with a tiny room not bigger then my bathroom with cages for like 10 cats and a small playroom... Mickey and his brothers all seemed very happy.

I will definitely show pics of Mickey (and probably gracie soon) I have one pic but it is on my cell phone and I don't have the cord I need to get it off and on my computer. They said I can visit any time so we are thinking of going today and getting a few pics with the digital camera so we have them.

For now the best I can do is to show this picture. This is Mickey's brother Zack. Mickey looks like this except with no white at all. Zack is the humane societies kitten mascot for now (they don't put each kitten on the website individually since kittens tend to go so fast and they always seem to have them.

Hi kamik86,
Congrats on the new kitty and what a great name. I have 3 cats that are all black so I have a special place in my heart for all black cats. I know when you first adopt an animal you want to take them home right away but it best to wait,especially if you have other animals. Wishing you all a great life together.
