MORE CAT TALES

MORE CAT TALES!

You've now met Ripley, Tipton, and Pumpkin Pie. We have left :

Allistar--5-year-old tomcat; very shy but sweet; Tippy and Rippy's paternal grandfather; Calvin''s
father, Moopy's brother-in-law,

Moopy--7 year-old female; mother of Tippy and Rippy, sister-in-law of Allistar, aunt and wife of Calvin

Calvin--3.5 year old tomcat, severely confused as to the whereabouts of his box! Thinks it's our bed. Ugh. Father andddd cousin of Tippy and Rippy. Son of Allistar. Anti-social. Beautiful, huge longhair. Tall as a two year old kid when he stands up on his back legs! Hates the thought of being touched, but loves it once you start. A problem child.

Shadow--15 year old male. Never knew there were any other cats on earth until he met my herd in February, Not related to anyone. Is 10-year-old Pumpkin Pie's kitchen companion. They, unbelievablyl, get along like litter mates!

Calvin's mom/Moopy's twin sister/Allistar's wife was Pachelbelle; she pried a shattered window open about two years ago, jumped out, and ran away! She never liked us, and only voluntarily let us pet her when she was pregnant. Allistar was given to us as a girl; we discovered the truth after we caught him making kittens with Belle! Calvin appeared shortly thereafter. Unfordtunately , Rippy is hostile like her aunt/grandmother. We are working very hard to ge t her to let us pet her without fear on her part. She's going through a phase right now where she is NOT hiding all the time, and w ill sometimes even let Rick pick her up. We are encouraged.
Tippy and Rippy are 2.5 years old. So, my babies range in age from 2.5 to 10 with a 15-year-old cousin lurking nearby. They have all met the 15-year-old. Tipton hisses at everyone and everything, and because of that is slow to make new friends.

End of Rave. What about yours??
