I Pulled The Trigger And Got Me A Cat...

@jd9900 - Buddy wants you in fighting shape!

That story reminds me of when I lived in this apt. years ago. It was a Saturday morning. I was undiagnosed and living a life of isolation avoiding all triggers by spending every weekend alone on my couch watching TV. I'm pretty deaf so I don't hear much. But I kept hearing a strange mournful wail at a weird frequency coming from somewhere. I finally turned down my TV volume, got up and opened the front door.

There sat a black cat who stood up immediately and walked right into my apartment. She stopped after a few steps, turned, looked up at me and meowed so I said, Hi Kitty and pet her. Then she took a few steps and turned, looked up at me and meowed so Id pet her again. And this would go on and on - take a few steps, turn, meow, get petted, repeat.

She lived down the hall and her owner would let her stretch her legs and she'd come visit me.

It was a work out, but I loved my safe visitor!
 
@jd9900 It's really, really funny when we put something small on the table we know she can not knock down and watch her try.

She waits for my husband to come home every night. She will run out to the patio and wait for his car to pull up and then run to the front door when it's him. If he is late she starts to get desperate and runs out for every car. And she will also start making signing and huffing noises.
 
So I have to add this to the thread. I took our kitten, Scallywag to get claw covers today because she loves to scratch everything and literally hang from the furniture. I did not specify a colour, so the ones that came in are purple. Her paws are white, though she is predominantly a silver tabby, so she has these bright purple toe nails. :roflmao: She looks like she has just come home from a mani/pedi!! It is hilarious.
 
Buddy. :) Sorry it is blurry;l he doesn't like anyone doing anything and apparently the flash on my camera is one of his triggers. It took at least a week to even get this far. :)
