The boys are Savannah cats -- Juba Kai, Maliik & Taji. Maggie is in a hammock in the boys enclosure. I'm having the patio screened in as we speak so they have more room and I'm trying to sell the enclosure.innerkitten|1335397402|3180896 said:Those are very pretty cats. I know the elderly one is a dsh, but what are the others? is Maggie in one of those outdoor fenced in play areas?

He was in kidney failure, extremely dehydrate and couldn't even keep water down. Long story short, he was diagnosed with 2 types of cancer -- thyroid cancer and lymphoma. He put up a valiant fight for 6 week while undergoing chemotheraphy but sadly lost his battle with cancer and we were forced to put him down November 30th, 2011. We debated whether or not to get another dog as it was such a heartrenching experience. In the end, we just missed having the love and companionship that a wonderful dog can provide. On March 23, 2012, we brought home our beautiful new boy Riley. He is such a joy and has so many of Farley's wonderful qualities. I have attached photos of both our beautiful and much loved Farley as well as our new boy Riley.

At our house, we have 3 kitties and a pup. Our Dagan-cat just recently had to be put to sleep due to cancer (he's the first pic), and Lilly is going on 19, so we decided to adopt a pair of litter-mates. They're about 5.5 years old. Our pup is about 8 years old. Black pets are hard to photograph well!
He still looks so sweet in his last days.![]()
She used to sleep like this a lot.
Rare non-eye glare pic!
Prometheus looks a bit perturbed, but Atlas thinks it's a great place to sleep!
I'd like to know as well. Gwen is absolutely adorable.Deia|1335444488|3181317 said:All the pets are so cute.
What breed of bunneh is that? It is so adorable I want one!
Thank you, kefira, it means a lot. I don't have Mimi yet, we're working on trying to get her from the foster home in Alabama to me in Florida. We're about 9 hours apart. There are some volunteers who are agreeing to drive her certain portions of it. We should be able to get her within 2-3 hours of Tampa.kefira|1335447174|3181346 said:Oh, audball, your story breaks my heart - that you had to give up your pet under those circumstances! I'm so glad you are able to give Mimi love and a real home. She needs you and it sounds like you need her as well. Best wishes to you, Mimi, and Darwin. All of your babies are beauties!

Thanks! The thread really isn't very sad. There are a few posts, but it's mostly happy stories about people loving their pets and encouraging me to move on and love another. I'm sorry about your loss though, it's really hard no matter how they're taken from you.kefira|1335448296|3181355 said:audball|1335447263|3181347 said:Thank you, kefira, it means a lot.

I'm so glad there's a network of people to try to help bring you two together. I'm also glad to see you post about this here - I saw your initial post in your thread about this, but it made me think about losing my kitty recently, so I've been avoiding reading the whole thread. I have my fingers crossed that you will soon have a new furry friend to love and cuddle.
Also, innerkitten, thank you for your kind words.

Gwen is a girl, and yes she is. I don't think I'd be able to tolerate a pet that wasn't litter-trained, lol.
Gosh all these cats are so cute! I want to hug and pet them all!
StacylikesSparkles, your cat George looks just like my childhood cat. Except friendlier. I loooove the picture of him all stretched out with his furry little tummy! I just want to poke it!
Maisie, the picture of your cat and dog together is SOOOOOO cute.

He's almost 2.5 years old, a Dutch rabbit "plus" we call him "Dutch Plus" because he's clearly not a purebred Dutch rabbit. He has exceptionally long ears and extra large back feet.
I love him, completely. And, since his bday is Dec. 16th, making one of his birthstones Tanzanite, I've been collecting Tanzanites ever since I've had him.![]()

Everyone's furballs are adorable!
I saw your story here in the hangout section. I was also a little scared to read the whole thing at first cause I was worried it would be too sad. I'm rooting for you as far as the adoption process goes. Mimi looks very sweet and your cat has some amazing green eyes.audball|1335446250|3181336 said:And Mimi! After almost a year of being without my Molly, I finally feel ready to move on. I've decided to adopt Mimi, another miniature schnauzer. She was also born on 9/14 (albeit in 2002 and not 2009) but it felt like a sign that she was right for me. She was saved from a puppy mill raid in Alabama and we're currently working out the logistics on how to get her to Florida. She'll be 10 this year, about the same age as my cat.

I know less than nothing about cats, and have no idea what a "dsh" is (what is it?). I just wanted to say that I, also, was struck by the beauty of your spotted cats, Matata. Are those spots hallmarks of Savannah cats?
This thead is making me long to cuddle animals I never thought of owning, like bunnies, and want to go out and get myself another Golden Retriever like Farley. What a gorgeous boy he was! He was far lighter blonde than my Brit, who was a medium Golden, but he has that sweetness of expression that she had. I am so sorry for your loss, Farleysmom. And for yours, kefira. Your new baby, Riley, is adorable, Farleysmom.
All the pets are adorable!
