One of my goals this summer was catching the feral cats out back to prevent the local fisher cats from making them dinner.  Unfortunately, papa cat was FIV positive, so he did not come back.  Last night I heard the trap trigger and lo and behold, the kitten was in there.This is the last remaining kitten from last summer's litter born under my shed ( Read more... )

I recommend neutering at 5-6 months with most cats. This cat is about a year old and obviously has been bred, so she is overdue.

Mack is not spazzy at all. I thought he was very sweet :-)

we've been sorta looking for a cat for a couple of years now. Mainly so we can get a control over the local rodent population. I'll check with the others in the house and see if they are still interested. (Mom just out of hospital, so things are up in the air right now. )

This is definitely a hunting cat, so let me know if she will work out for you.

Mom doesn't want any animals around the house that require care, so this is a no-go. Sorry. Once I'm back in my own place...

Good luck with finding orangey a home. I already have a spazzy orange cat. :D That is very odd that she's a she. Typically (from a non-scientific standpoint) orange is boy, calico is girl. I guess there are exceptions to every rule, eh? :D

Calico boys are much more rare - but I have met one.
