awwwwww adorable!!! i love seeing cats in bunches 
tried uploading the pics from my phoneā¦i gotta email them to me and resize them. so hopefully my lack of pics and procrastination will be better once i get them all fixed upā¦while i was preparing my camera for my birthday yesterday i saw a few pics of calvin and taranga on them. it made me sad but i try not to let it ruin my birthday. the distraction of the aquarium helped a lot. those are pics that ill print out for my photo album. i plan on printing a lot of them. getting a consult for my memorial tattoo on monday. going to print a few pics for inspiration for her. then make the appt for the tattoo itself. pic will come onece it is done, etc. i know ill cry once i am out of the appt. i hope to bring my best friend with me to help me not cry. i miss them dearly. not a day goes by where i am not thinking about them. it still hurts. i had a dream where taranga was around other cats in my boyfriends house and then in another dream at a friends house. she was her loving self. i petted her in both dreams. i almost got teary eyed but there were other cats in the dreams. its hard without her.

ok, iāll bite. my cat doesnāt though. her name is miss priss and she is 17 and very healthy except for hyperthyroid for which she takes a tuna flavored med twice daily without protest. there are usually several cats living here but after her brother, mr. bear, passed a few months ago, she has really enjoyed being an only child so we will wait to get more kittens until she is gone so as not to disturb her peace. at her age she sleeps a lot but still plays with her toys and comes to sleep with us. we do adore her.

that is how taranga wasā¦once she became the only child she enjoyed itā¦so i figured get another cat after she was goneā¦well i wasnt sure if i was going to but i ended up with the cat that i cat sat. still unsure if he is meant to be, etc. but i understand in waiting.
does Taranga mean something or is it just a name?
yeah, we couldnāt have the heart to upset miss prissās life with rollicking kittens so we will wait, but she is doing so well that we wonder if she will outlive us!
i live on the coast of Maine and we have a wild animal called a Fisher Cat here that loves to kill and eat cats. recently we saw once twice from the kitchen window so our little ā ā ā ā ā ās excursions outside are very restricted. only at certain times of the day with a human with her.
tell me more about yours please. maybe others will join us even if we are off topic.

it was the name she came with when she adopted me :)ā¦when they opened her cage she climbed all over me, hopped onto the floor with her tail up and walked towards the doorā¦that is when i knew to take her home. so she adopted me :)ā¦i never changed her name as she was 4 years old at the time.
i live in massachusetts ā¦i had a cat named calvin that passed in 2015 at the age of 18. taranga was put to sleep 5 months ago this coming tues. at the age of 11 she was.
right now i have a cat name bubba. i was cat sitting him from oct till feb as taranga needed surgery and my boyfriend thought it wasnt a good idea to have the to of them together. so he took over until mid may. he kept asking me since taranga passed to take him back. i wasnt ready. i still wasnt ready in the middle of may. so now i have him. he has become mine permanently since june 17th when i asked my friend if i could keep him. its a good thing i am because he and his wifes life isnt in a good spot still. and his life is better at my house. and he is happy over here. so all is good. i still have my doubts tho.

he is a tabbyā¦no maine coon in him. he is a big cat tho lolā¦i love taking pics of himā¦the one thing i learned after taranga is to take as many pics as possible. bubba is an affectionate cat. he loves giving you love bites. and looks at you lovingly. he loves to sleep by my foot. he is big on my chest. his butt is on my keyboard and i cant type at all. i have to move my computer a bit. i use my laptop in my bedroom. so im not in the living room as its hard for me to be in there after taranga has passed.
the tattoo artist has designed the memorial tattoo. i cried on my friends shoulder once we left the tattoo shop. once i can resize the pics i can post them on here to show yāall. i cant wait to get it doneā¦it will take a bit to do as i have two sessions. ill show yāall the whole thing as we go along. i am using my babies ashes in the tattoo to make it more personal, etcā¦
i have new pics of bubba that i need to resize to post :)ā¦he has been a lovey dovey cat. he likes to be on my chest which taranga and calvin liked to do. not sure if its a sign from them but he does like it.
how is everyones cats are doing? @CatLady, @Nickyghaleb? i havnt heard from you two in a while. i hope they are all doing good
off to fix bubbas pics to show yaāll. i cant wait for my first tattoo sitting. it will be exciting!

Oh my, I learned today that my cat Amador has kidney stones!!! That is why sometimes his pee has blood in it. So he is on subcutaneous fluids and antibiotics. He cooperates with fluid administration if I strew enough crunchy treats in easy reach, yay! Zane Grey has advanced to stage 3 kidney disease and he is also now on subcutaneous fluids. He wants his treats when the ordeal is over. They are both around 20 years old (more or less) so I give them lots of treats!

Took Zane Grey and Mighty Mouse to the vet this morning for dentalsā¦and chasing MM around the house twice to get him in the kennel raised my BG!! 
LOL! he knew what was going onā¦silly kitty. i hope he did good at the vet tho. bubba doesnt mind going to the vet. its easy to get him into the carrierā¦taranga on the other hand once we try to put her int he carrier she knew what was up so sheāll go under the bed and its hard to get her from under there. we would have to lure her out with a treat. then retreat back into under the bed. im happy that bubba is easy. but once we are in the car he knew. but he did a good job. i dont have to take him back until next year. or when there is something wrong. so far so good.
but you have a silly kitty
