Simba and Nala (Sissy) joined our family 6 years ago. So many have shared about their cats and I thought I'd share our story of them. You see, they are not the first cats we have had. First there was Weber who we rescued from a bird's nest in our spruce tree. She was independent and not very personable but we loved here nonetheless. Before she passed Sam came to live with us. He was a real mouser! Literally caught them and brought them to us so we could praise him. (Moles were left on our back step before he came in for the night.
On one occasion, when we were remodeling the kitchen, Sam felt it his duty to check out the workmanship of the cabinets. LOVE that cat! Sadly Weber died of cancer and Sam died of a blood clot.
That brings me to Simba and Nala. A young lady I worked with had two kitens, brother and sister. She as always sharing tales about them. But one day she came to work saying she was going to have to find a new home for them because her husband was found to be allergic to cats. She was willing to separate them as she had to find the home soon. Well, I couldn't see separating brother and sister and so we now have them and they are a delight. Simba is the active and curious one. Nala (Sissy) is the lazy, sleepy cat! Love them both!!
He's such a clown!!
She's so layed back!
Love this brother and sister.

Thanks be to God!

Beautiful cats--and I'm so glad you adopted them so they could stay together!
ReplyDeleteWe are too. They make life more enjoyable these days!
DeleteHow long I have known you, Cathy -- I remember when you got these two sweeties! <3
ReplyDeleteYes, dear friend, we have known each other for some time. It's been a grand journey!
DeleteCats are always in charge, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteGod bless, Cathy.
...cats sure can have individual personalities! Enjoy your week.
ReplyDeletelove cats but am allergic and can't have any - I pet and feed a couple of feral cats who visit me
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful Story of your cats, Cathy.
ReplyDeleteHaving cats, I know, it's a special quality. We have had dogs and now - again - our Luzie cat.
Wish you a good week.
Happy MosaicMonday

We love our three boys - all rescue kitties - and I'm glad you shared photos of your furry family. Thank you for joining us at http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2021/01/the-rest-of-indoor-herb-garden.html
ReplyDeleteI am a cat person, too, Cathy. I've always had ctas in my life since I was a little girl. Sadly my most lovable cat Bo died a year after we moved to Colorado and I have not replaced him as yet. I keep thinking that soon a cat will "find" me, much as your Simba and Nala found you. I do have two "grandcats" that I enjoy spending time with .
ReplyDeleteCute siblings!
ReplyDeleteI love dogs but at heart I am a cat person. Yours are great!!
ReplyDeleteWe have friendly felines here. Do they have their own blogs?
ReplyDeleteWorth a Thousand Words
I'm afraid they don't have their own blogs. . .the dog would be put our! Thank you for your visit!
DeleteSweet kitties... glad you took them together , how sad it would have been to separate them.
ReplyDeleteThat's nice that you took them both ! We are reduced to one cat now, first we had two (both made 20 years) they got company from my son's cat who had asked me to keep them for 3 months. 18 years later they were still with us, both of them died of old age (also 20) We remained with two and then after 19 years of life together our very special cat Arthur passed away, just before we moved to an apartment. And now little Rosie (13)is with us and got used immediately to her inside life ! She became more social and seems to be very happy now !
ReplyDeleteMeow! I love cats. Can´t but love this.
ReplyDeleteOh they are beautiful cats and sweet photos ~ so glad you took them in ~ they are a blessing and you are too ~ ^_^
