MY CAT

Hi I'm new on obesityhelp.com. I saw a message board about cats and wanted to introduce me and my baby. My name is Robin Cosper. I live in Mobile, AL. I adopted a Russian Blue Cat 3 years ago and he is absolutely the sweetest thing. My son named him shadow. I call him Shadwick because he has this personality like he should be rich or something, lol. He just sleeps and eats. He's very fat. Not like your typical russian blue.......but he is a russian blue. He's smart as can be. He's starting to lose weight now that he has discovered outside. I moved into a house so he sits at the door when he wants to go out and use the bathroom. We do not have to use a litter box anymore, thank God. I will keep my back door open and he comes in when he is finished. He's like my third child. He has his own room and bed (well he shares a room with my two boys and sleeps on the bottom bunk, lol) He's very loving and gentle and loves to play rough with my husband but would never be rough towards me or my kids. I feel like I have a dog sometimes. Well, I just wanted to share with you about my baby boy. Thanks for reading. Robin

Hi Robin, I have 4 cats I LOVE!!!! Lucky 1st one from my girlfriends farm 2nd one was Chessie girl she died 3 day after being fixed. They said "she must of had an underlying heart problem"I'll really never know.Got Tobey yellow and white as couldn't stand the loss. Then came Minnie she is calico and such a sweetie from shelter. Then Holly from shelter this Dec 15 gray white and small. Done for now as they all stay inside.But they have given me oh sooooo much pleasure and love.I live in Delaware. Our last child a son is headed off to college end of Aug. so 3 bedrooms for the cats have to keep one of 4 for guest with no cat hair. They love watching birdies out the sliding door. I bought a bird bath so the could see more. And a tape for them to watch with birds, chipmunks etc.but they put a barking dog in it and they ran, funny but not to them!Well I'm new also hope to have wls in Sept.2005 Stress test 7-5-2005 if all is well Iwill get a date set.

Hi Robin, I am new on obestiyhelp.com too. And I loved your post about your cat! I have a black cat (someone once told me she was a british short hair black cat. ) I dont really know for myself what kind of a cat she is. I just know that I love her and all her silly ways. She is about 7 yrs and still has a lot of energy! We have a lot of fun together and I wouldnt trade her for another cat in the world. The week of my surgery I got the news that correspondence college course I had completed had graduated me. That was a big pick me up after my surgery which hadnt gone well. I am much better now 3 mos later. Take care and write back soon. Jessica J

Hi Robin; My name is Stephanie and I have 2 cats. One is Felix, he is mostly white with black around the face and back. he has the tips of his ears and the tip of his tail is white and the rest of that is black. He thinks he is a dog though. you cannot leave anything out. he carries my hair scrunchies around in his mouth. I left a fingernail file out and came back for it and he was carring it off to hid. My other cat is Tigger. he is about 7 years old and is my baby. He is a grey and white stripped tabby. but he will cuddle with me in the bed and sleep next to me. I don't have a date yet for surgery but i put my insurance paperwork in and it wasn't denied. So i am looking forward to getting on with the program. This message board is really great. It has helped me answer alot of questions. Good luck with your surgery. Stephanie, Marion, Ms.
