Tuesday Tails
Today you are going to meet Baby. Let me start off by saying I could have a hundred Baby's ~ she is a sweet, extremely low maintenance little girl & she is a beauty.
Baby was the first resident of the cat house. Well her & Mommy Cat. They had been travelling together as strays when my neighbor trapped them and kept them in a large crate at her place until the cat house was ready. I suspect Baby is Mommy's daughter. She probably wasn't even a year old when she moved in.
I imagine life as a stray was a hard way to grow up so I understand why she is so shy & flighty.
She is always around but at a distance most times. She has days she'll come around for a pet or to play but most of the time she is a few feet away watching everything. She is still very bonded to Mommy Cat.
Baby is a well behaved little girl never causing any trouble. She doesn't bicker with the others nor is she a whiner.....she is almost a perfect cat. Her extreme shyness & flight over any little noise or anything out of the ordinary is her only problem.
A sure way to get Baby to come around is to rattle a bag of treats. She is always there for her little snacks & will give you a little rub against your leg in appreciation. She also loves catnip.
I love this little girl and perhaps as the years go by she'll come around more but if she doesn't, well that is fine too. She's happy & content and that is what matters.
Cat Pilates!

What a beautiful Calico! No telling what she's been through to make her that cautious. I'm glad you have her.

Cool colors!
And that's the thing about cats, isn't it? You can't help but get the impression that they are all reincarnated yogis.

My old Hershey boy is not doing well and I will most likely have to put him down. So hard to type those words. I would love one day to hae a cat again. But I sure do fancy dogs. Maybe I could have both?
But thank you so much for sharing the pics of her----BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Do you care if post her picture on my blog and link it back to you? She is just so pretty!
Huggers,
