Meet Morris
« on: July 31, 2012, 05:39:40 PM »
I've been meaning to post these pictures for a few weeks now, but better late than never.

This is Morris. DH and I adopted him from the RSPCA the day after we got married. He was really unsure and afraid at first and is still a bit skittish and wary of new people. He hid upstairs for three days after we brought him home, but now he's a lot more settled and comfortable with DH and I. He's adorable though and very vocal. We love him.  ;D We're not sure of his history. The RSPCA said he was a stray that was abandoned. Anyway, meet Morris.

So cute! How old do you think he is? We have a really vocal cat and I love it. It always sounds like she's answering my questions.  :P

Thanks, Ladies!

CCG, the RSPCA said he's around 2, but everyone says he's really small for 2. I don't know because he's my first cat.  :P

So cute!  So happy for you!  :)

I wish we could have a cat, but I'm too allergic.  :-\\\\

Absolutely, positively, drop dead gorgeous! Every ginger cat I had had has been special, as have my other cats.

How wonderful to adopt a cat who needs a home, and thanks for sharing the pictures.

Ours is very vocal but sounds so pathetic (he doesn't really meow, more squeaks). So we call him the King of Angst. ;)

Morris is cute!  He looks like a smaller version of my Pancho, who is a rather vocal, very affectionate cat.

What a handsome kitty. My DH and I adopted half feral kittens from the SSPCA and it took them about a month to consider warming up to us but now they're as affectionate and friendly as we could ever hope for.
