Summer With The Monkeys

Hello everyone!

Delilah and I are honored to be invited to be members of the Floof and Fur group! We happen to be posting on the first day of Summer (which, coincidentally, is the current theme)

We're from Montreal, Canada and I'm (Samson) almost 3 years old and Delilah is 3. Mommy calls us The Monkeys.

It gets very cold at certain times of the year here. Having lots of floof is an asset in the Winter (even though we're strictly indoor cats) and our Mom appreciates the warmth we emit at night. But in the Summer, it's a whole other story and things can get pretty sticky.

I like to wear my floofy tuxedo all year long:

And Delilah can't escape her snow pants

As all you floofs and furries know, a good brushing is really important. I'm lucky because I love it. Delilah, on the other hand, does not!

We hope you're all staying cool this summer and remember, if it's too hot, try hanging out in the cool ceramic of the sink!

Samson
xoxo

Introducing Melvin!

Melvin is so excited and thankful to be, what looks like, the youngest member of Floof & Fur thus far.

Melvin is a unique little Blue Point Himalayan boy. He is thought to have been born with a genetic disorder known as Primordial Dwarfism. The vet has told us that he will never get to be past 3 pounds. The diagnosis was found with several tests, including x-rays and ultrasounds, that showed us that Melvin's organs are all proportionate to his tiny size. At 2 months Melvin had the heart the size of a 2 week old kitten.

These days, Melvin is growing well, despite showing symptoms of the disorder. Seeing that not much is documented on PD in cats, our vet is using the human symptoms as somewhat of a guide. So Melvin has become somewhat of a learning experience for us all, although this disorder has been arising as somewhat of a fad within the breeding world and used as a marketing technique by calling cats like Melvin "teacup".

Melvin was born on March 17th, 2009. His Gotcha-Day was exactly 2 months after this when he was rescued from his previous owner. To read Melvin's entire story, visit him at his blog, which is updated daily.

INTRODUCING LACOCOON DANTE

Hello Fellow Floofers! My name is Dante and I am a 7 year old Maine Coon classic red tabby. I live with my brofur, Dylan and my sisfur, Domino in a nice house in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada (it's the capital, you know).

I was born at the Lacocoon Cattery in Lacolle, Quebec. The first two pictures of me are when I was just born and when I was a toddler at Lacocoon before my purrents picked me up to take me to my furefur home.

You can see me when I was about 6-months old in the third picture (see how long my tail is -- I didn't growed into it yet). This is my house -- I have lots of rooms to wander around and big windows to look out, and a back yard where I can roam free because, as Mama says, gravity and the fence keep me safe. Mama takes me out in the front yard, too on a leash, so I can socialize with all the neighbours and watch things go by on the street. Mama has also taken me to the Petsmart on my leash and peoples are always admiring me when I goes there.

The next picture is my only furmal purrtrait that was taken when I was just one year old. I weighed about 17 lbs. then and my eyes were still an ampurr colour, but I growed more since then and my eyes has changed to green now.

The last picture shows me when I was fully growed at the age of 6. Now I weighs about 22 lbs. I has a furry, furry full coat of floof. I has more in the winter and less in the summer cause I sheds when it's hot.

I has my furry own blog called "All About Lacocoon Dante". Here's the link:
http://allaboutlacocoondante.blogspot.com.

Next time I'll do a story about me in the summertime. Thanks fur letting me be a mempurr of your Floof and Fur club.

No summer for this kitty

While most of the kitties living in the northern hemisphere are embracing summer, we in the south are gearing up our floof for winter (BRRRR). Winter in Sydney is not dire – no ice, snow or blizzard. Nonetheless, it still cold, wet and grey.

This means much of the time I curl up in my box with gran’s hand-knitted blanket…

Or if I am lucky, I would catch some occasional rays of the sun.....

Enjoy your summer!

Hey all you Floof & Furries out there! It’s been a while since we’ve had a theme so why not take advantage of the change in the weather and go with SUMMER!

What do you do to beat the heat? Where are the beans off to on vacation? How do you battle the weekday blahs? How do you deal with all the little sticky kids constantly disturbing your naptime? Where can a kitty get some R&R? Where is your favorite sunbathing spot?

Whatever it is that you do during summer, tell us about it! We want all the summer stories you’ve got.

So go ahead and get started. Summer posts can begin being posted NOW!

Baby Patches

Hai! Some of you may knows me already but for those of you who don't I am Baby Patches. I has a blog called da Confessions of the Plume.

First off, thanks you very much for dis opportunity to joins da Floof and Fur group! It really is an honor!

I was born April 7th, 2008 and my Gotcha day is July 25th. My momma & daddy founds me on PetFinder.com after they lost a precious kitty to them. It felt likes an empty house wif just my brofur Lucky left to keeps em company. So my sisfur LociLu was first adopted on the 21st and then 4 days later I founds my furever home!

Momma says I has grown up to be quite a floofie fur ladycat. I is very active and hyper Turkish Angora, plus I purrs very loudly. My blog was started when my momma recruited me to be her Chief Kit for SuppliesJust4Pets.com. It is where I gets to tells about my confessions and my daily life as da Chief Kit. I helps momma wif shipping, finding new products, and best of all I gets to test da products!

I hopes to meets all you Floof and Fur members! I is happy to has been invited and dat I joined!

Cheyenne Millie

Hi all! I am named Cheyenne Millie. Thank you for the invite to join this group. I live in Napa, in Northern California. I was abandoned by my first family when they moved away. Mom believes there was a sibling of mine who also was left behind, who was possibly adopted by a family a few doors down. For about 3 or 4 years after my family gave me a home they kept seeing another cat with exact markings like me roaming around the neighborhood. They at first thought it was me and that I had escape. But no, it wasn’t me. I would always still be inside the house. I lived alone outside for about 2 weeks hiding in and around the bushes of what was going to eventually be my new home. Actually, I wasn’t always totally alone for some of that time …. I had all these boy kitties (at least 2 or 3) chasing me up and down the big camphor tree out front of the house for several days. When mom saw what was happening she decided to catch me. They tricked me by putting kitty food in a cage! I have always been kind of shy, and I don’t like to be held or picked up. But, I do like to be pet, and my favorite past time is to sit on the back of the couch, up behind my mom, and fan my floofy tail over her hair letting her know I am there!
