Another 'Kid' to Love

Another "Kid" to Love

Sigh...I did it again. There are no reasons why...and don't ask me how it happened.
I adopted another 'kid'...this time round, it is the 4-legged kind.

Most of you would know that I already have 3 Divas at home.

There is Holly, a beautiful silver tabby which I brought home from the SPCA. She has kohl-lined eyes, and is the kind of cat that thinks she owns me...not the other way round. Up to today, she is the Alpha Female, and insists that she eats atop the counter so that she is physically 'higher' in status than the other two.

Squicky and Queen came as a pair. They are pure-breeds, mind you, and yet, I did not pay a cent for them. I adopted them when they were given away by their owner. Squicky is a quirky smoky persian who has an indomitable sense of adventure. Sigh...I think I have spent a fortune on her collars...which somehow mysteriously disappear each time she leaves the house.

Queen is a mild-mannered Ragdoll with such a blur disposition that she has been dubbed "Duh Queen". She is manja, and loves to sleep under my neighbour's golf umbrella so that she is shielded while she 'suntans.' Despite her clueless personality, I think she is sneaky enough to get away with a lot of naughty things.

There is an uneasy treaty in the house...and clearly marked territories. Holly's kingdom basically is Zafran's bedroom, and conquers his bed. Queen loves my bed, while Squicky...sleeps wherever she pleases.

The 3 Divas...cannot stand each other, so they go out of their way to avoid each other.

So now how...
I have gotten Murphee...a snow-shoe Birman. Actually, she came as a set, with Bluebell, a grey american shorthair...but my sis decided to keep Bluebell. Their owner, actually loves them to bits, but she is very ill, and is unable to care for them. She was weeping quietly when we took her beloved cats away.

Will world war III break out in my home?
Stay tuned...(for I expect all hell to break loose when you have 4 'women' in the house).
