meet Buggy

I hope Walli and Joey have a happy ending like yours!
Read your story!

I was a latecomer to Bug's story, but was instantly hooked. And this thread is now one of my favourites here at TCS.

 

[bigbadbass]

I'm honored rubysmama .
Bugs story surely revealed me as no feral "expert". Quite the opposite...a dummy, which I admitted early on in the thread. Rolled with the punches, heeded with the great help and support offered here at TCS and came out ok. He was certainly a pain in the neck, tricky at times. Initially identified as 12 year old, actually 3 through an identification mixup... some hilarious twists and turns.

 

[rubysmama]

I remember when I first read through pages and pages of Bugs story, that I was so surprised when the 12 year old turned out to be a totally different cat !!!

And, though you may not have been a feral "expert", you were not a "dummy" either. I'd say you were a feral "novice", who learned with Bugs, so you'd be ready when Princess came along.

 

[bigbadbass]

I had to fight Bug every step of the way...Princess was a willing participant. Great food, warmth, security,
even her own room (she displaced Bug for a short period) she found the home she was looking for...and so desperately needed. So sweet and innocent...different from Bug, in a good way.

Hello tabbytom , hope all is well with you. And remind that you are partially responsible for what you see in that pic there!
Your helping this dummy (me) still not forgotten and still greatly appreciated. Sometimes I think back...just imagine if I had opened the door and let him go. What a mistake that would have been!
These beautiful animals inspire me on a daily basis.

Hey there bigbadbass, I’m good and hope you are too. I’m so happy to see both Bug and Princess having a good bond too.

Thanks to you for giving both of them a better quality of life. Glad that you did not open that door!

Well, hope to see more photos of them and here’s a special thread just for them if you are not aware of :- Black Cats Only

Send my love and hugs to Bugs and Princess

Glad that I could help

 

[bigbadbass]

Within the thread are noted mistakes I either made... or would have made...without your consistent, most valuable help and support. The Cat Site certainly has its experienced, most worthy, helpful staff and members willing to help a bumbling newbee such as me ...to cat adoption. Granted, Bug was not easy...but "we" did it.

Hugs to each of them, from you.....DONE. I even whispered to them "this is from tabbytom "....yes I did.

I'll reacquaint myself with the awesome Black Cats Only thread. These beautiful creatures deserve to be highlighted.

 

[bigbadbass]

Early afternoon, Bug was at my feet, pacing, faux biting. Unusual, he's normally pretty easy going. Obviously, he was going out of the norm, trying to capture my attention. Gotta be food....I called him, we both went to the food closet, grabbed the container and went to the bowl in the spare (cat) room....sure enough ...empty. Not waiting at all, he aggressively pushed his way in to the food while I was filling.

Evidently, he was quite upset at me for slackin', letting the (normally full) food bowl go empty and he certainly LET ME KNOW IT!

The leader of the pack, quite a character.

I know who won't let THAT happen again, right dad?

 

[bigbadbass]

sure thing, mazie

 

[tabbytom]

 

[bigbadbass]

Perfect, you nailed it, TT.

The little bum went from starving, to devouring, to picky, to not quick enough dammit!
Yup, he's taken over the joint!

 

[tabbytom]

Lol..............

 

[bigbadbass]

As usual, the inseparables. My son's room and bed, they frequently find peace and quiet here.
Left alone to relax and sleep without interruption. Without a doubt, both are happy campers.

 

[bigbadbass]

again, inseparable, I can't tell where one ends and the other begins. I think Bug is on the left. They've just got to be related! Someday, I'll do the suggested DNA test.
How lucky they are to have been found, rescued and "paired".

 

[mazie]

How adorable, yes, looks like bug is the one on the left, that cat is bigger. They are identical though. Are their eye colors the same?

 

[bigbadbass]

Yes, identical eye colors.

I could sell them as mother-son, brother-sister, father-daughter they are so alike in so many ways.
The fact that they both turned up in my woods, lost, hungry, wandering, within 6 months of one another is not random coincidence, but a good indication they were from the same source. How they are related, and whether run away or dumped...I'll never know.

 

[rubysmama]

Totally precious.

 

[mazie]

I take that as a YES on eye color?

 

[bigbadbass]

yes, mazie ....identical eyes

there's a pic a few posts up, both with eyes open
