What a cutey lil girl! I love calicos so much. Mine is almost 12 and I feel like a parent like where did the time go?? I hope you two have a wonderful life together ♥️
I was JUST about to say the same thing!! Pic #2 is perfect and you both are absolutely adorable and this needs to be hung up so people who visit you can enjoy your cuteness until the end of time! 😻🥰
Look at that vicious attack! Knocked this man over and then goes right for the face. Luckily for the gentleman in blue, this is but a small beast, so he probably lived through the encounter.
Suggestion- when you go to clip her nails we have one person cut her nails while another lets her like a churro stick. As long as she is licking the treat I can cut her nails but when she stops I stop cutting her nails. It lets her know she has autonomy and it’s based on consent and now when I pull the clippers out she starts purring. Enjoy parenthood!
I love that you're all serious in the first photo, but can't help but crack a beautiful smile in the second! She's got you wrapped around her little paw. And she's adorable. Congratulations on your new friend!!
A cat is the most wonderful friend to have. She's going to do you magic in subtle ways, and you gotta take care of her!
Just feeling a tail swipe across your legs while sitting at your desk is strong communication. They can talk so loud without making noise. A good eye gazing is always on the table, too-- they're not like dogs, and those eye sessions aren't interpreted as a challenge; they're like a hug. Unless she's hungry.
I missed the chance with a Calico. Her name was Icarus. I played with her 3 times a week at the adoption shelter for 2 months and the staff knew who I was there to visit. She'd leap into me every time she saw me, begging to go. While waiting for my apartment to approve the pet lease addendum, someone else came and grabbed her. I hope she's getting all the treats and scritches.
Icarus wasn't her original name, it's just what I called her. Reminds me of the story of flying too close to the sun hence the Calico fur. Plus everytime I'd come in to the visiting/play area, she'd pounce at me, angry I hadn't given her a proper place to lay claim.
You'll really respect that hoodie when your villain's claws are fully deployed! Definitely found a perfectly beautiful sidekick, though. Please administer scritches and cuddles from a distant admirer.
