The Ragdoll in action!

Hello once again.
     I want to share some pictures of our Casper.   He is what you would think a cat named Casper would be.  He is a ghost.  One moment there was nothing there and the very next moment this little white kitten was sitting inside our front door waiting to be fed.  We have had our little (ok, not so little anymore) cat for almost a year now, and he is such a sweet cat. 
     As I said Casper is a 'Ragdoll' and his breed is known for being one of the largest domestic cat breeds around today.  Even though he is now bigger than our 3 year old cat Lucy, he does not weigh very much at all.  He truly is large in size, but not in weight.  As his breed is also know for going limp when you pick them up you can also see that our Casper has no problem sleeping in tights spaces.  He is well known around here for sitting on top of a shelf and letting his head and front legs hang off the edge.  He can lay there and sleep for hours without ever falling off.  lol.... We all feel very lucky to have this sweet animal in our lives.  He has such a nice temperament that he will wait by the side of the bed until he is invited before he will jump up.  Mind you at that point he will walk up to the top of the bed and make himself very comfortable by laying on top of your pillows.
     Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. 
Hugs, Lisa & Casper

It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's.....

LOKI !

     Yes, we have a new visitor in our house at the moment.  He is not staying, but for the moment he is going to stay warm and get healthy with us.  We have a walk-in closet in our garage that we are able to heat and has a lot of shelves for a cat to have fun playing in and on.
     Loki has been begging food from us for a couple of months now and just last week he showed up with a big chunk of his tail missing.  We have cleaned it up and given him a warm place to stay until the weather (22 degrees at the moment) gets a little warmer.  
     What we didn't know until two days after Loki showed up hurt is that he has been declawed and neutered.  We know he has a family, but even with putting up posters and asking around no one will claim him.  We have an appointment with our Vet. to see if he has a chip in him and to get his tail taken care of.  It looks bad, and I took a picture of it, but I really don't think you want to see that. lol...
     If he doesn't have a chip and we can't find his original family we will see about getting him a new one to love him.  Jerry loves him already, what with Sunday disappearing over three months ago.  She hasn't been back around for long time and now we don't expect her to.  :O( 
     So guys,  I hope you like my new blog.  Have a great weekend. 
Hugs, Lisa G

     So let me know what you all think of the new blog. 




Who's that CAT?

Could it be.....

It's Loki!  Bad picture as he has stunning blue eyes and the flash just made them all shades of red. 

 

 

Getting started...

Hello friends. 
     I am very excited to get this blog started.  You all know how much I love sharing pictures of these funny and most of the time weird cats that seem to be such a huge part of our lives. 
     I would say that most of the posts will involve three key players.  In case you have never seen my Pawpaw-Razzi posts on my crafty blog those cats would be Lucy, my black Bombay cat that is the queen of our house.  She is my baby and I can not tell you how much this cat that loves to play fetch and sleep in my arms at night means to me.   Our second cat (and the only one that we actually went to a pet store and picked out) is Boo.  Even though her name is a bit of Halloween sounding it truly has nothing to do with it.  She was just so tiny and so sweet that my Husband Jerry said she was just a Boo and so it became her name.  Then there is our third cat.  His name is Casper Liam and he goes by Casper.  His name came from the fact that like a ghost one moment there was no kitten on our porch as we were coming home from a family outing and then like the ghost he is named for he just appeared out of thin air and was in our living room.  Try as we might he would not leave and kept running back into our house and are hearts as well.  lol...
      That should bring you all up to speed with our fur babies and as google isn't letting me pull up pictures from my computer I am going to try to load a couple of older pictures from my other blog just to get us started. 
     I hope to have the problem salved and a new post up for you all tomorrow.  In the meantime, have a wonderful weekend and I'll talk at you later. 
Hugs,  Lisa G
