Pics of my new kitty

[VelmaD]

I promised I'd post pics of the new cat as soon as I could find my camera...so here she is. I've pretty much settled on a name...Mabel.

This is Mabel on the couch watching football...which she apparently really really likes:


And here she is under better lighting...shows her colors a bit better:

1. Beautiful, Vel!

Nice cat.

[VelmaD]

2. I think she's decided...

she likes me. She's been sitting with me watching football all day. Could just be she's a 'Bama fan though. :)

3. Mabel looks very sweet.

I wish you the best of luck with her!

[VelmaD]

4. Thanks...

she is a fairly sweet girl. I'm pretty hopeful that things are gonna work out with this whole cat thing. :)

5. She's really pretty.

She sorta looks like Lynne's kitty, Abbott.

[VelmaD]

6. but not...

as EVIL *snort*

[GOPisEvil]

7. Abbott is the nice one. Evita is evil.

[VelmaD]

8. Ahhh...

I get them confused. Sorry.

Of course, I have no idea what evil Mabel is getting up to while I'm at work...could be she just acts good while I'm around. :shrug:

9. That's how they do it

You're learning fast.

[VelmaD]

14. I had a head start...

several of my friends have cats and they warned me. Granted, it didn't stop me from getting a cat anyway. *snort*

10. Aw, so pretty!

Congratulations! I'm so glad you gave this kitty a home. :toast:

[VelmaD]

12. I am too so far...

she's a good cat. :)

[graywarrior]

11. Very cute.

[VelmaD]

13. Yup...and god only knows...

what's really going on under that cute kitty exterior. :)

[graywarrior]

23. Oh you'll find out.

Watch for when the eyes turn into slits. Then you know you're screwed...somehow.

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

15. adorable!

more stories of her getting to know you please :hi:

she seems really sweet

[VelmaD]

16. Well, so far...

she's a good combination of affectionate and self-sufficient. She doesn't require constant attention...but she does like to cuddle sometimes. And she really likes to lay on the couch with me to watch tv...even if she doesn't always approve of my choices. She did like "The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pitman" on Thursday night. She didn't like X-Men 2 this morning. :shrug:

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

19. she didn't like X-men 2 ??

damn, good luck with those tastes :P at least she like the football

it always exciting to get a pet, espically seeing how they take to you and your home

[MissHoneychurch]

17. what a beautiful cat

she looks adorable. No wonder you fell in love with her.

[VelmaD]

18. I dunno if I'm in love yet...

that takes a while with me. But I sure do like her a lot so far. She's a good kitty. I figure that pitiful whine that grabbed my attention was a message that it was time to get a kitty...this kitty. :)

24. It takes me about two weeks to fall in love...

unless they do something cute like bring me a dead mouse. Then I fall in love instantly.

20. Pretty Kitty!!!

Don't let Matcom around her. :scared:

[Jamastiene]

21. She looks like a very insightful cat. Have you tried to

teach her any tricks? She looks like the type that would take to trick learning. She's beautiful too, btw.

[derby378]

22. Awwwwww

What a sweeeeeet widdle kitty.

[Vinca]

25. What a sweetie!

It won't be long before you wake up one morning and realize you're owned by a cat. That's their trick. Get in the house, act grateful for a few days, then take over. I couldn't live without them. Congratulations on adopting Mabel!

26. How cute!

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

27. Hi, Mabel!

:hi: Say hello to your cousin, Binky:

[Lindsay]

28. Oh, she's precious!

I like the name Mabel for her.

Give her a kiss for me - or if you're not a kitty kisser, give her a nice pet or six.

[LaraMN]

29. She looks kind of regal. n/m

[jus_the_facts]
