    We have a mystery cat. Can you help?

    I'm really happy if he's a DLH, because my sweet Chester is a DLH and so huggable and loving! I think Hershey is picking up his sweetness as he grows up. :) (Chester in the pic)

    Thanks, everyone, for weighing in. :)

    We have a mystery cat. Can you help?

    My husband just picked up Hershey so that I could get a closer pic of his eyes, ears and ruff. (But I won't continue to belabor this or post more pics. I realize that there are too many mixed breeds running around for me to get a definitive answer and I guess that's what he is.) If you do...

    We have a mystery cat. Can you help?

    Thank you, Maurey. I was confused because Chester, our Domestic Longhair is so different from Hershey.

    I like the "Happy Ending"! I'll let Hershey know he has a sibling, ha! :D

    We have a mystery cat. Can you help?

    Thank you so much. He doesn't have that "lynx fringe" on the top tips of his ears, but he's young. If he's a Maine Coon, would that come later?

    We have a mystery cat. Can you help?

    I found this little one in my car's motor, almost a year ago. He was teeny tiny then, and the vet said he was about 7-8 weeks old and had probably "hitched a ride" from a parking lot, apartment complex, etc. (That's pretty scary.) He's about a year now, his name is Hershey and he lives very...

    Chester is the gray and white Big Boy, ha. Pansy will be very pretty when her hair grows back. The shelter had to shave a large amount off because she came in matted and flea-riddled.

    I guess he did, ha! The last 2 nights, Chester and Pansy have both slept on the same bed and this morning, after their breakfast, I opened the front door so they could watch the rain, and they're both sitting there together, doing their after-breakfast grooming. Peace In The Valley, ha!

    2 Adopted Cats, Things Not Going Well...

    Unfortunately, because half our home is under construction (remodel) our actual living space is temporarily very small, so I didn't really have a separate place to put her, unless it would be in our bathroom (and with workers going in and out of there, that didn't seem a good solution). Pansy...

    Thank you guys so much for all your help and advice. I tell you what's turning things around for us and it's so simple that I feel a bit dumb for missing it before... In trying to make sure Pansy liked it here, we were beginning to change our behavior toward our first cat, Chester, and it was...

    Thank you, syazz! You know, when Chester got here in November, we just so completely showered him with affection and lap time and let him have the run of the place and everything he could want. This morning, I found him hiding, of all places, UNDER the hot water heater, in the laundry room...

    2 Adopted Cats, Things Not Going Well...

    Two months ago, I adopted Chester, a large, beautiful, domestic long-haired, 2-3 years old. He is a declaw and is current on everything, in excellent health. Only my husband and I live here and Chester is very affectionate and a real snuggler... until yesterday. I thought I was doing a good...

    Hazy: I Just Need To Talk About It...

    Well, we're back and no Hazy. I do believe that the man at the shelter really has been paying attention; he seems to be sincere. It's just time to accept it, I guess. I'm going to allow myself to believe that someone who needed a little love in his or her life found the little guy and that...

    Hazy: I Just Need To Talk About It...

    maggiedemi and Sarthur2, I'll be gone for 5 days. Good idea; I'll keep calling the shelter. I should have given the man there a flyer of Hazy. What was I thinking? I'll have to go back and do that.

    Hazy: I Just Need To Talk About It...

    Hi, everyone. The vet is located in the next county, so I'm guessing it's a good 20 minutes away, at least. I did find out that there is an animal shelter there, but it's not called that. It has some odd name associated with the county and it's called "control" instead of shelter. (They are...

    Hazy: I Just Need To Talk About It...

    Hi, everyone. We put out color fliers with Hazy's picture, but no one has responded. I was sure to also give the name and number of the animal hospital, as well as their after-hours number, but we've heard nothing. Yesterday, my husband and I drove back and checked every possible place, even...
