Why I need cats in my life...

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TURTLE <3

Today, I woke up and did my usual checks on social media (I know ugh). But today was a great reminder of one of my favourite days to date, the day I brought miss home. I usually hate seeing my memories on Facebook, as I have some pretty silly posts; but i’m so glad I was reminded of this day. 

I couldn’t be happier at my decision to bring her home, even the fear of them both not getting along couldn’t stop me. After all she was everything I ever wanted in a cat, cuddly and  fluffy as ever. Maple was just jealous for a while but thank goodness she got over that. Every day at around 6pm they share their “fight” which really just tires them out so they can nap.

Every day after their nap, they clean each other and eat their dinner. It’s become a routine and its actually quite funny to witness, Jay and I rarely find ourselves watching TV anymore. The cats are much more interesting. I can’t wit to see whats in store once we pick up our puppy in May. The cats don’t even know whats coming, haha.

Cont’d

Maple DID not like Miss, she would always hiss and swat any time she came around. After all, it was Maples home and she felt as if Miss was intruding into our lives. It took about 5 weeks before Maple came around and started understanding Miss was here to stay. 

Once they became friendly towards each other and stopped the hate, they could finally tolerate one another. They have adapted quite well since then, now they are inseparable. They sleep together, eat together, clean each other, play. Don’t get me wrong, they still get in a fight at least once per day, but now it’s just kinda funny. 

At the end of the day, they are sisters and they are happiest together.

They say you are either a cat, or a dog person. While I believe that I am a cat person, I still have room in my heart for dogs. Cats are just way cuddlier that’s all. I think what I like so much about cats is how sneaky and troubling they are. 

One time Jay and I were fast asleep in bed and we woke up at five a.m. to a horrible screeching noise. As we jumped out of bed and ran to the source we had found Miss somehow got her paw stuck in the coffee machine. Yes the coffee machine, don’t ask me how but it happened. I think the point of that story was , Miss trying to be sneaky, somehow turned into getting herself in some major trouble. (I still laugh about it) stupid kitty. 

No matter how much these crazy these furries get into, I still can’t get mad. They are the definition of entertainment, there is never a dull moment with them and they never stop surprising me.

Turtle vs Maple... Who am I kidding they both have my heart.

This is my very first blog post. Inspired by my two furry friends, I just love them so much; no matter how troubling they can be.

It’s hard when you adopt a pet, it takes a while for them to warm up. But truth be told they do come around…eventually.

I welcomed Maple into to my life first. She was a farm kitten, a friend of mine couldn’t take her in but I was in the right spot to take care of her. She is ADORABLE… ask anyone. The colours of her fur are incredible and she is as sweet as can be. I homed her at 8 weeks, she is my baby.

She can be a handful, and she definitely has sass when it comes to being heard. But I wouldn’t trade her for the world.

Now, this is Turtle (AKA Miss). She was one and a half when I adopted her from someone off of Facebook who could no longer care for her. She is my long haired beauty, so soft and so kind. She took a lot longer then Maple to warm up; she has been re-homed more then four times in her life. But I can assure you, this is her forever home! I adopted her in May of 2016, and she deserves a family that will care for her for her whole life.
