So we have 5 cats. Not really on purpose, but we could never get rid of any of them now. They have their own personalities and it is so funny to just watch and interact with them. So I thought it would be fun to introduce them to y'all. So here goes:
Leon is first, as he is the oldest, and the first kitty Hunter got. He is 5 years old, and Hunter "rescued" him about 3 years ago. Leon is a Himilayian Siamese Cross, with bright blue eyes. He loves to snuggle, and all things blue. He has a tendency to lounge on the foot rest or arms of our couch with his arms and legs splayed out to make him completely flat, he resembles a bat while doing this so his nickname is "bat kitty".
Floofy is next. We got her the memorial day after we moved into our house in Lincolnton. we found her on craigslist, and went out in the boonies to get her. She was about 3 months old when we got her so I guess that makes her 2. Her name for the longest time was kitty kitty, but we have since changed it to "floofy" which is a cross of fluffy and aloof, as she is both. Floofy is our only girl cat, and will probably be our only girl cat from now on. Hunter was convinced that we couldn't have 2 males, and that was very very wrong....
Leading to Jasper and Freddie. We decided to get one more cat, and we really wanted a solid black one, so we looked again on craigslist, as well as local pet rescues in the area. I found Jasper on craigslist and the only catch was if we didn't take his brother he would be put to sleep. We figured we could find him a new home so after work that night, Hunter, our friend Connie, and I drove to get these 2 tiny kittens. We decided on Jasper for the black one, mainly because I love Twilight and it was the only name out of the series Hunter would let me use. Connie got to name Freddie, as he rode home attached to her leg...the Freddie is short for Freddie Kruger, as he has very sharp long claws. He also does the thriller dance from Michael Jackson when startled by large black dogs. Jasper is a very special and unique kitty as he thinks he is part dolphin and reminds us alot of the black dragon in the movie"how to train your dragon". Jasper is also very very good with our puppies, he sleeps with them, and let's them crawl and chew all over him. We never did find a home for freddie, but then again we never really looked either...haha
And last but certainly not least, we have Colby...short for the Colby Jack cheese his fur reminds us of. Colby is still a little baby, only 5 months old. We rescued him from the Animal Shelter here in Surry County near our house. Colby, is also affectionately known as our "spider Kitty" as he will literally fling himself onto any screen we have, and hang there like a spider. He also one morning accidentally flung himself onto Hunters shirt and hung there until I could untangle him, luckily he doesnt weigh much and has tiny little claws.
I hope you have enjoyed meeting our kitties and have the chance to see them in person too!!
