Many of you have asked how the new cat is doing and wanted me to post some pictures. She's doing fine and I have finally named her and, no I didn't name her Chloe after the 24 character. The name just seemed to fit her.
About an hour after I got back from the Blogtoberfest in Helen, she came out from under the bed and decided she wanted to be friendly. She's not even afraid of my wheelchair anymore. I imagine that will lead to me inadvertently running over her tail in the near future.
The next morning, she tried to wake me up to give her some food at 4:30 AM by rubbing against my face and purring. She has a very loud purr. After I pushed her away a few times, she gave up and came back at 6:00 AM to try again. This time I got up and fed her and Scooter.
She's a little fireball and loves to play with Scooter. Scooter is having a good time as well. He had to quit playing with Ashley when she got too old. Now he has a cat closer to his own age. They chase each other around the house. Hopefully, this will get some of the excess weight of of Scooter.
Chloe loves my garden tub in the master bath.
Look at me! Aren't I cute?
Her eyes aren't really blue. That's the camera. Scooter loves the garden tub as well and my cleaning lady has bitched remarked about the cat hair in it.
The mistress of the garden tub.

Posted by: kerrcarto on October 23, 2007 02:02 PMWAY to GO!
Will you PLEASE pass this message on to Chloe?
Posted by: DanS. on October 23, 2007 02:26 PMAwwww... she's a little cutie isn't she. Glad she's finally relaxing a bit.
Posted by: Teresa of Technicalities on October 23, 2007 02:27 PMFine looking cat, Denny.
Posted by: Alan on October 23, 2007 02:52 PMIt's too bad Rob Smith isn't here to appreciate this post.
ok she looks a little tourtiseshell..is she?
If so you have been warned, they are uber neurotic. I was owned by one for 15 years..
Posted by: armywifetoddlermom on October 23, 2007 04:37 PMThat's a very regal looking cat. Prepare to cater to her. Here at our house, I work as door opener and waitress to the cats. They are lousy tippers.
Posted by: Peggy U on October 23, 2007 05:06 PMShe's already lost that "shelter cat" look from your earlier pics. I'm so glad her personality is coming out and that she's adjusted to your place. And, I love the name!
Posted by: AnnaD on October 23, 2007 05:11 PMHillary had her a cat, but she threw it away when moving out a while back.

Since you mentioned "24", did you know that semi-famous lefty Janeane Garofalo is going to be on the next season of 24? I don't mean to hijack your thread. I just wondered how you felt about that.
Posted by: Sally on October 23, 2007 05:52 PMShe is absolutly darling!
Posted by: Maeve on October 23, 2007 07:33 PMLovely name, Chloe.
She is very, very pretty and looks so confident.
That's awesome Denny. Looks like she's settlin' in. They adapt pretty well to any situation. She can pose pretty well too!
Posted by: CharlieDelta on October 23, 2007 10:16 PMBoth of them are very nice looking cats. I like your newest cat. Glad they are playing and getting along. My sons cat is still an outsider to my other babies.
Posted by: Catfish on October 24, 2007 08:52 AMThat is one good lookin' pussy.
Posted by: Paul on October 24, 2007 11:06 AMOH she looks like a Chloe. That name just fits. And her eyes are so big and beautiful.
Posted by: Bou on October 25, 2007 11:14 PMI'm so happy for you Denny. So glad she's friends with Scooter now.
Posted by: red collar on October 26, 2007 07:56 AMShe needs the 24 ring tone for your cell phone! She just has that Chloe smirk does she not? Maybe it's a cat thing, cats make me sneeze, so I don't know much about them.
Posted by: LisaKay on October 27, 2007 08:03 AMLisaKay - Bou, Morrigan, and their friend Sissy all have that ringtone on their cellphones.
Posted by: Denny on October 27, 2007 09:20 AMDenny, I have the ring tone set from my son. What's funny is that in a public situation, like shopping, I'll turn and tell everyone around me Pardon Me, it's Jack Bauer calling for the President. It's fun to see the looks on their faces that I'm actually talking to them-excusing myself and not answering the phone first. Mostly because they are all gabbing it up on their own phones while in line! How rude! :)
