Ruby [redux]

July 6, 2012

Wendy says: When we brought Phoebe home, we were hoping our older cats Elsa and Wally would bond with her. Well, that didn't go to plan, so after a few months we decided that we would find another kitty for Phoebe to befriend, and along came Ruby, who is a shorthaired tortie. There are four months to the day between them and they bonded with each other from day one! They play and chase, they groom and sleep together as if it was always meant to be. The lastest game is tree climbing. It really is a treat for us to enjoy our two very happy playful kitties. Wally and Elsa tolerate them but prefer to keep their distance, but we love them just as much. And with four cats in the house, there's always one who wants to sit on a lap.

Thank you for bringing home a friend for Phoebe instead of taking Phoebe back. Always a cat in the lap? Wonderful!

How do you deal with the ...um... litterbox odor that usually accompanies a household with multiple cats?

Lovely kitties, thank you not taking her back.
Darcy, I only have three cats (in a flat) ,but I find keeping up with the litter boxes does work, just use the right litter and clean regularly :-)

Based on this photo, I would not have guessed there was only 4 months between them. Rubby looks so tiny compared to her bigsis.

You can see the happiness in their eyes. They are posing for the camera.

Gee whiz, I smiled through the whole photo series. Ruby and your other cats are so precious. I love Ruby's name--she is a gem.
