Ok i caught this kitten that had been living underneath my deck and eating the food i left for him because it was below freezing and would be that way for the next couple of days. i wanted him to have a warm place to sleep and a full belly. so i set up a super ghetto trap involving a rabbit hutch, a bowl of food, and two shoe strings tied together and squeezed through my window screen. you get the picture. well it worked!
i felt terrible at first because he was terrified out of his mind, but i took him inside and he immediately accepted his food. after an hour or two he was letting me pet him, and now (a day later) he is letting me hold him and loves to be scratched. he's a purr machine!! he and one of my dogs already love eachother lol its really weird because of their size difference.
well here he is! anybody have any name suggestions?

OMG he looks just like my Roxy, Logan!!! Is he a boy? I'd name him Gus Gus. That's what I'd have named Roxy if she was a boy. Or if it's a girl she should be Foxy ;)

Ps. Congrats!!!

I just realized that Roxy has a little smudge on her face like your cat does, only it's on the other side of her face and right under her nose! Isn't that cute :)

What a sweetheart... very lucky cat that you've taken him/her in. Congrats, crimson. :)
 
thank you!!
i honestly don't know what sex it is. i have looked for a penis but couldn't find one. actually all i found was a butt hole. im gonna leave the sexing to vet from now on, i officially suck at it :/
i was shocked when i first saw him because he is and EXACT copy of my first cat (chloe). i still have chloe actually, but i have not told her about the new (foxy :naughty: ) girl in my life. haha. im afraid of how she will respond to the little thing! which is why he is in the john deere room for now haha.

and thank you kashta :D he has certainly proven to be a trouble making sweet heart already haha
 
Erm, it tends to "hide". It's kinda a shock when you see it. IE: when the cat turns over so you can pet his tummy :eek3: I'd totally leave it to the vet too ;) Maybe Chloe will take her under her wing? Pouncer, the man of the house, just bops her on the head when Roxy get's too forceful. She's kinda a bully ;)
 
well no wonder i couldn't find anything! it didn't help that he wasn't holding still either haha. actually he is weird about being picked up. he kinda freaks. i don't think he's ever been touched before i caught him, when he was in my back yard, you couldn't get within 20 feet of him before he would run off
i have always heard that boys are more friendly and cuddly than girl cats. is that true? because he is definitley a lot more cuddly than my female cat. well all except the "feet of the ground" thing
 
LOL I know right?

I would say that's not true. It all depends on the cat. I had two that were brothers and one was sooo cuddly and his brother was a beast. He escaped and climbed up our tree. He ran away during winter. It was really sad. Also cats can change a lot after they've been "fixed". When are you taking him to the vet? Are you going to keep him?
 
He's a fiesty little thing, Zig! haha
Tori, idk when im taking him to the vet. i need to call and schedule an appointment tho. i need to do that after i sell the rest of my stuff off craigslist (made 75 bucks so far, you think that will cover it?)
and yes i am going to keep him. im concerned about how to introduce him and chloe tho! i guess ill just let her hate him for the first month and then get over it lol
