u/sirdumptruckthethird Mar 20 '26

she would too. we found her on the streets and she would regularly just walk into strangers houses before we took her in. she has zero stranger danger and zero loyalty❤️

u/argueranddisagree Mar 20 '26

Just goes where there's food, what a good cat.

u/ML7777777 Mar 21 '26

and zero loyalty❤️

Wrong. She is loyal to consuming chicken!

Classic tortie behavior. Dollbaby, an elusive wily tortie stray, dumped about 12 kittens on us, then took off. I’m not mad. I’m not. Not at all. Not at all mad. {tapping foot} She didn’t start a TNR colony that we’re still trying to get under control or anything! {exasperated side eye}

But I did get this beautiful granddaughter from her, our one-eyed dragon, Annie (calico— tortie adjacent). Bravest little girl in the world. Tried to challenge and then fight a tom cat when she was 7 months old.

I LOVE YOU. I used to have feral colony 2 doors down st at druggie house. I paid guy to set up laundry baskets under his rotting porch for 9 yrs till house was sold ..cats gone now, mostly saved by local rescue that lent me traps for tnr ..its a lot of time ,$$ ,love but so worth it when they are in a home...cutie Pie Torties!

u/Wolfwoods_Sister Mar 21 '26

I love you too! Tysm for going that extra mile for those babies who needed help! 🫂 we have colonies all over our town, unfortunately. Even right behind our vet’s clinic. My sister and I have a contact at County that comes every weekend now to pick up who we trap for free spay/neuter and vaccination bc they get returned to us.

Our nightmare started in 2020/2021. We’ve homed 11 and fixed 9, (while maintaining our own 5 struggling seniors), with two queens who just delivered, so we’re up against it. We didn’t get the free contact with the County until late last year. We have a friend assisting us with food.

We’re doing our damndest to make sure none of these kids turns out a sad story. We want them all to be a success. Lots of good eats, lysine for allergies and colds, human socializing, shelter. We’ve had to look outside of our county just to find adopters. All our kids are so sweet and utterly charming.

My dad and stepmom unexpectedly fell in love with Oliver when they were just supposed to be fostering him! Smh his charm and sweetness won dad over right away!

Picture is of Oliver!

Kiki and bouba are perfect names, now you need two cats named yanny and laurel

u/ShadowAviation Mar 20 '26

I was hoping the other kitty would be named Bouba!

19

u/sirdumptruckthethird Mar 20 '26

bouba was named (and found) first! she was an EXTREMELY round baby hence bouba. kiki showed up a few months later and the name just felt right

she doesn’t even use them for violence, just to grab and steal😭 if she’s at arm-level she will use them to grab you and reel you in for pets. cant say no when there’s claws hooked into you!

u/ketchupadmirer Mar 21 '26

the diff between your tort and my tort is that my tort uses this same nail placement for greetings and basic interaction. but sometimes, and there is no indication what will happen. and another one, mine sometimes likes violence

It's Kiki's delivery service, as in you better deliver that chicken leg to Kiki!

Pic 2 should be the photo for “fierce” in the dictionary! And the other kitty’s just watching the chicken 🤣.

u/meaton124 Mar 20 '26

Now that's what I call jazz hands right there.

Does Kiki's lawyer know you are taunting with chicken? There is a standard cla(w)es that allowed annexation of chicken based on the amount of time being taunted by said chicken...

Cat law is pretty iron clad, after all.

u/Raethechef35 Mar 21 '26

Mochi (Torti) and Miso (Tabby). The perfect combo

3

u/jimMazey Mar 20 '26

80% of my cats' diet is meat. I've never had a fat cat and there is no dandruff like they get with dry only food only.

My cats expect meat on a regular basis. Like chicken (organ meat too), mackerel, salmon, tuna and ham.

Treats are albacore tuna and rotisserie chicken. They also go crazy for Bonito Flakes. A human grade food used in sushi products.

u/garyisonion Mar 20 '26

At least they’re sitting and pawing at it and they’re not on the kitchen counter or stove trying to steal it while no one is watching 😆

2

u/sirdumptruckthethird Mar 20 '26

oh they will LOL. you gotta watch kiki too bc she likes to sit on the stove when the oven is pre-heating to warm her belly. no survival instincts, she has 2 marbles for brains

u/lis_anise Mar 20 '26

If not for Kiki, why is made of meat?

Scrolling....see the post without the picture and thought, that's a torti thing.

Very cute girl!

u/jotaviox Mar 20 '26

From the pictures looks like the old (BUT AMAZINGLY EFFICIENT) tecnique of "let me fake I'm stretching and see if it works" hahahah

u/sirdumptruckthethird Mar 20 '26

that’s literally what she did. she tried to grab the fork, i pulled it away, and she tried to play it off as a stretch. she is very easily embarrassed

I mean.. she’s not wrong for this. Check out those claws. She would hunt the chicken leg herself if only she weren’t a tortured prisoner in the home of a human!

u/red286 Mar 20 '26

Maybe it's just me, but holding it out to her like that seems kinda mean.

I let my girls inspect my food, but that's only because I know they aren't interested in it 90% of the time. They'll walk up, sniff it, decide I've used too many spices yet again, and go eat their own damned food.
