Yez I have 4 cats.
I had a dog in January but we had to put him down in March.
More can be read about him on his Dogster profile.
-Minnie-
Is the oldest cat we have, a skinny, lithe Russian Blue mix. She's blue gray with some white patches, and big yellow eyes. I think she might be partially blind because her pupils never seem to get smaller, and she's very skittish. She's affectionate to those she knows, like me, my mom, my friends, and our neighbor, but she doesn't seem to like guys, for she always hides. Minnie's going on about 11 right now, and her face and paws have already turned silver. Her fur is a little coarse and not very thick.
-Tiger-
A HUGE brown tabby cat, he must weigh around 20 lbs or more. We got him as a kitten, a runt of the litter believe it or not. He's around 8 or 9 years old. Because he was raised with Minnie, he's easily scared and always runs from strangers, though he always greets those he knows at the door. You can hear him purring from across a room. He's very laid back and a marshmellow, he likes being adored and carried around. And fed. His fur is very smooth and silky, and he has green-yellow eyes.
-Chester-
He's a black and white tuxedo cat with very thick, plush fur, like a plush toy. We have to give him medicine twice a day because of his seizures. He followed me home from school one day a walking skeleton with a broken jaw, and talked his way in for the night. When my mom saw he wouldn't eat or drink and was just meowing, we took him to the vet. The vet actually recommended putting him to sleep, but we asked if there were any other options, and one was to feed him this nutrient paste (it looked like brown toothpaste) three times a day. They set his jaw back in place and for about three months we would feed him the nutrient paste and pour water down his throat with an eye dropper.
He's about 7 years old now, and is very laid back and rather slow, and always tries to eat inanimate objects, like leaves, shoelaces, ect. However, Chester has his days when he's really bouncy and hyper- like today, when he and Bandit were galloping around the house playing tag.
-Bandit-
We adopted her only 2 years or so ago. We saw her around 7 months old trying to catch a squirrel on our neighbor's porch. She wasn't quite heavy enough to kill it and instead got away with a deep bite on the base of her tail, which she healed on her own. We suspect that she used to live with the owners of a foreclosed home 5 doors down from us, since when she's outside she often hangs around that house. She's the only cat that we let outside, and she tends to chase leaves and generally explore. We make sure not to feed her before she goes out, for then she doesn't wander as far, and she'll always come inside if she's cold, hungry, or needs to use the litter box.
Bandit is nitorious for chasing Minnie relentlessly, though, because in cat societies the oldest female still able to have kittens is the leader. Thus, Bandit is constantly chasing and annoying Minnie.
She's not trying to catch Minnie, though, because when Minnie stops running and faces her, Bandit taps her heels to make her run again.
woot a bunch of useless info on my cats! xD
