Here is my other indoor kitty, he is 1 1/2 yrs old, his name is Squeaks. All three pictures are him and the first he is annoyed that I woke him up...

The second I think he is wishing I would go away..

Ignore her, she will go away...

Does anybodys cats nip?
Graycie nips at me all the time. She'll jump in my lap, let me pet her for a few minutes, then she starts nipping at my hands and arms. But, she doesn't jump down, she still wants to be petted.

Squeaks will sometimes do this to me in the morning , it doesn't hurt, but because of the injury to my nerves I have to control where he touches me and at what pressure otherwise it hurts so I am always hiding my hands from him in the mornings and he will lightly nip at my arm as if to say "get up" I always took this as a sign of affection because first he rubs his head on my arm, purring, licks me and then lightly nips. It doesn't hurt at all though.After having this happen everyday I finally looked it up and here is the link which may describe your cat's behaviour also.

Love bites. The cat at my shop is very friendly and loves to be petted. We stop to go back to work and she bites us...she's mad that we stopped.

whered y'alls cats come from?

i would feed mine drunk in the wee hours of the morn at my X's.

there mom would bring them buy evry weekend, then after a while i think something happened to her, because she dissapeared.

they were tiny. so i took them in.

caitrina · 09-10-2007, 07:08 PM

Muffin I bought, Squeaks came back with my son one day and Colors who I have not posted pics of yet was about 2 years old when my first late husband (yes, I am a widow twice in my life time) took her in when her owner died and she was grieving almost to the point of starvation, I came into his life at about this time also and then when he died I of course still had Colors, she is 18 years old now and still with me. Will post pics of her later...

"Nipping appears to be akin to human kissing..."

Hmm... well I'll be.

My cats Leather and Lucy came from a woman that takes strays and gets them Vet checked with their 1st shots. Then you have to "adopt" them. I think she charges like $20 or so.
When we moved to the country, my wife wanted an outside cat, so a woman at her work found 2 babies stranded in her bushes along side of her garage. They were sick and so tiny... my wife couldn't resist trying to help them. Well... they were brothers... Eanie and Meanie... Eanie has been missing for over a year now.

But, we still have Meanie.

Someone dropped off Patty. She was too affectionate to be a stray. Came up to all of us... wasn't afraid at all. Before we were able to get Meanie fixed, Patty had the "babies" (Butters, Calie, Baby Patty and Graycie). She had 5 but one didn't make it.

Now... ALL the cats are fixed.

from what i was told by the CT Humane Society is that besides people's lame superstitions about bad luck it's that they're used more often in sacrifices esp. around the Halloween season. which means a much more extensive background check is needed.

XBwlr · 09-10-2007, 08:55 PM

They AIN'T gettin' mine!
This is Leather.

She's my baby.

Here's Eanie and Meanie.

Eanie is on the right... RIP little buddy.

Patty (Mommy) and Graycie.

And... last but not least...
Lucy.

My neighbor's cat comes over for breakfast at my bird feeder every day. It's like a fast food takeout window! Drives my dogs crazy!
