I'm hoping the pictures attached.
The kitty picture with me in my robe was when we got Gustav - 1 day (we found him in a drainage ditch while I was riding my bike);
Gustav at the dishwasher (his favorite place to be when the dishes are dirty he likes to lick!)
and Gustav and our older cat Jag all snug in their favorite chair (this does not happen very often Gus has too much energy for Jag!)

Gustav's gorgeous, Spoke! Good thing you found him/he found you!

Yeah, he's a cutie! He actually did find me. I was out for a bike ride coming on a FUTS trail over a hill towards my house. I heard a meow and said "Kittie?" and he jumped from the ditch as I was riding my bike up the hill and started following me in big leaps in order to clear the tall grass, talking all the time!
I was with friends and did not want him to follow me too far into dangerous conditions so I sprinted ahead and then came back for him later in the my car. He came running out to see me again when I drove up and we have had him ever since. He was approximately 6-7 months when we got him. He was about 5.3 pounds after we had him for about 1 1/2 weeks and now he weighed in at 9 pounds. That boy can eat and GROW!

Aww... great story spokewrench. :) He certainly DID pick you!

Here's our latest edition. Meet BJ:

About a month ago we lost our crazy, neurotic, loving, lunatic cat, Houston, to cancer. He was only 12. It broke our hearts. But there was such a void, even with the other cat, Riley still here, that we only lasted 3 weeks before we knew we had to have another cat. So we went to the local shelter looking for a kitten. We wanted a young cat that would adapt to the dogs and to Riley. But this guy just charmed us. He's about 3 years old. His family turned him in because they were moving to a place that didn't take animals.
We've only had him a week, but already he ignores the dogs and likes sitting around on the back of the couch with us. Riley is still hissing at him. But he turns and walks away. He doesn't confront her at all. He is a complete gentleman. I'm looking forward to seeing what he's like when he's completely settled in. I think he'll be quite the love bug.

BTW, Gustav is quite the beautiful cat, and very lucky!
-
I'm in love roadie gal! BJ is gorgeous. What a sweet face, too!
-
It looks like a mistake in the photo, but the tufts coming out of his ears are actually white. It is just the silliest thing. He's really skinny right now and his fur is sort of thin. I think he just shut down in the shelter and wouldn't eat. We're trying to put a few pounds on him. I can't wait to see what he looks like when his coat gets healthier.
-
So cute--and such a sweet face.
-
BJ is really cute, congrats on the addition to your household!
-
Oooo!! BJ is going to be beautiful long haired black kitty (well mostly). Yes shelter isn't a place for any animals!!
