    I picked up this link from the video.

    Maggie the cat - Sobel Nation Rescue
    Anne
    Meowmie to Lucy Lou and Barney, and Aunt to Timmy (RIP)

    Former kitties now in foster care: Nellie aka Eleanor van Fluffytail (at a Cat Cafe), Lady Jane Grey, Bob the Bobtail, and Callie. Kimi has been adopted into another family that understands Siamese. HRH Oliver Woodrow von Katz is in a Sanctuary.

    I'm Homeless, but with resources, and learning to live again.


    RIP Timmy (nephew kitty) May 17, 2018, Mr. Spunky (May 10, 2017), Samwise (Dec 2, 2014), Emily (Oct 8, 2013), Rose (Sept 24, 2001), Maggie (Fall 2003)

    Maggie is beautiful, isn't she!

    I wish I could take even one of these cats in.

    I've been wanting a 4th cat although I have to be careful about Spunky's feelings.

    The optimistic part of me thinks that the critters won't wig out if I bring a special needs kitty in the house. I will wait and see what shows up on the porch.

    That thought never occurred to me when I would take one in; I don't know why I didn't think about it but I didn't. I can recall, though, that when I brought in Creamsicle who is deaf and is a CH baby, my Peeka stopped beating up on Pidge and that's something she had done every day for years. It's as though Creamsicle had a calming effect on Peeka and everyone got along just fine.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I have a number of lbind babies (Ptolemy, Chrissy, Joseph, Cali, Bradley, and Mira). Some are completely blind and others are only missing one eye. But one would never guess that they are blind when you watch them get around the house. Ptolemy has a brother (Newton), so actually acts kind of like a "seeing eye" cat as the new ones are introduced to the house.
