We have nine!!

Yep, my husband (LPN/Charge Nurse) and I are currently owned by nine kitties, ranging from Snowflake, resting here between my boobs and my keyboard at 18 and the youngest boys, brown tabby Manxs at about 2. In between we have Ruby at 17, a tortie-point Siamese/Manx cross, Twinkie, a 10 year old seal point Siamese, Candy Bear, an 8 year old blue point Siamese, Boo and Snicklefritz (black and gray medium haired respectively) litter brothers from a feral litter - 4 years old, Sapphire - gorgeous medium haired brown and white tabby - 3 years, Boo and Snickie's younger sister from the same feral mom and dad. We didn't plan on the youngest three but my best friend passed away last August 2, 2004 at 52, at 450+ pounds, with diabetes and a family history of massive heart attacks, and we were the only ones who would take all three of her babies. It won't be long before we have to give Snowflake back to the Great Goddess Lending Library of Cats. She is very thin, has arthritis but is not in any pain that we can tell. I wish all of your furkids long and healthy lives.

Wow!! Nine kitties. I would be in cat mom heaven. We only have 4 and I always think there is room for one more, but I think my husband would leave me. My daughter says he would pack his stuff and go, but would certainly be back soon because he would miss his cats!! He complains alot, but I think he is really the biggest cat lover in the house. He is such a baby with them. We have Pewter, a gray female long hair, the oldest at 8, Dodger, our only boy, a shelter cat, age unknown, loves the outdoors and hunting, CeCe, a female tortie, shelter cat, probably about 3, and our baby, Bleubelle, also a shelter cat, about 3, a blue-point Himalayan. They are all fabulous in their own ways and we are absolutely in love with each of them. But, I have to say--Bleubelle is the most beautiful cat any of us have ever seen, a fact confirmed by everyone who comes to our home. All our girls are indoor only cats, but Dodger, who we inherited from my MIL who passed away, goes outside. We hate that because it worries us sick when he is out, but it was just impossible to reprogram him. He has a very strong hunting instinct and when he wasn't allowed out to indulge that habit, he began to hunt our girls and it was very frightening. The vet said he will definitely hurt them if we are not very vigilant. So, we started letting him out and now everyone is happy.

I have ten! My hubby has the biggest heart. He brings home "babies" all the time from his job. They are usually sickly and we have to nurse them back to health. We usually find someone else to adopt those but the ones we have are all related. Either litter mates or next generation. We have four that live outside by their own choice. The rest of them are terrified of the outdoors.

as of right now i have 4...but our snowball cat who we now have nicknamed to mama is getting bigger by the day not to sure when she is going to have them but let me tell ya leave her alone she is worse then someone on pms lmao...hopefully soon..my b/f says we are keeping another damn thats alot of kitties lol cindy
