New family cats!


Here they are!!! Emillio and Ashley!!! They arrived on Sunday night. Ashley just permitted me to pat her for the first time this morning! She's still a hidey-cat, but she's starting to get her courage up. As you can see, she meows for attention -- but then she runs away when I reach out to her -- but not all the time anymore. Emillio loves being pat, but only since a couple of days ago. He follows me around constantly -- and she does too, but from a distance, at least sometimes. They are still adjusting to their new home. They are only 10 months old. Teenagers. Lovely soft sweet kitties. Half siamese apparently and half tabby -- gorgeous striped racoon tails. Both have 4 white paws. Now that she has appeared enough to see (ahem) I can tell that she has 4 white legs. He has two white rear legs. She has a pink nose and he has a brown spot on his nose. They both have soft white bellies and golden brown furry spots in between the tabby stripes and the white areas. Lovely lovely. I hope you all get to meet them soon. They lived in Cat Rescue homes before -- apartments with about 15 cats together, so they are just learning what it means to be truly In Charge. They still don't really know... We should have lots of fun... Come visit! This was my first chance to get pictures!
