colterphoto1 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 The Colter household is apparently a safe place for cats. Last Thanksgiving, a little one showed up at my door. Although she would not become a pet, I took care of her through the winter. Maybe it was a mistake, because two weeks ago she showed up with two little ones in tow. They're cute as can be and I'm working with them every day so they're good and friendly like Steely Dan and Gypsy (my two cats in the yard, life used to be so hard...) I just saw mama cat showing them to the food bowl so they're ready to go soon. So if anyone in Indy or coming for Pilgrimage is wanting to take in one or two of God's little critters to love, we've got em right here.

Moderators dtel's wife Posted June 12, 2007 Moderators Share Posted June 12, 2007 Michael, I love the white one, on the left, she/he looks so sweet. I am not sure how Mommy Cat would react to a new pet in the house??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel's wife Posted June 12, 2007 Moderators Share Posted June 12, 2007 We are discussing taking "both a dem". Buddy is in love with the multi-color one on the right. However, we have not discussed "either a dem" with dtel, so I will have to let you know. What sex are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted June 12, 2007 Author Share Posted June 12, 2007 Don't know yet. I'll check but its hard to tell with widdle ones. The mottled one on the right is most friendly, but the yellow/snow one is very cute too. I'm trying to break them of their mommy's 'hissing' habit. She tries to warn off my two cats constantly I'm sure they'll be fine once in a warm home and separated from their Mommy. They love to be held and stroked and talked to, so they're used to handling. I'd love for them to stay 'in the family' and Buddy would be good with them I'm sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted June 12, 2007 Author Share Posted June 12, 2007 Here's the two of them, they don't want to pose for photos very badly right now LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilMays Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Very cute! My wife would take one in a minute....I accidentally terminated the life of our cat with my truck...it was a very bad day around the Mays household. Of course I did mention to my wife on mutiple occasions that the declawed cat should stay inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Michael, Great photos, but what else should we expect from a pro photog with kittens as models. It's my understanding that cats with "calico" brown, white and grey markings are female, as that is a sex linked trait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEAR Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Adorable these little ones.Hope they find a caring home. Well I have adopted one a bit over 7 years ago...now a 26lbs mini tiger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's my understanding that cats with "calico" brown, white and grey markings are female, as that is a sex linked trait. I checked em tonight, looks like 'indoor plumbing', must be little girly kitties They actually look very similar as far as the plumbing. I'll email you how to tell--I don't want to gross anyone out on an audio forum [*-)] Calicos are cats are always female, unless they are genetically mutated. Cute little buggers.

oscarsear Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 One of em is a tricolor calico. All calico felines are female. Another interesting thing about calicos is that the color combination will not clone. You can clone the animal but it will not have the three colors found in the gene donating subject.
