They can be annoying sometimes, but they're cats and they're independent and do whatever they feel like doing. :)My cat used to remind me of Garfield [/quote']Cats are very independant and don't take orders.Like sit or lay down.You can train them but its not that easy.I luv my crew. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juscat Posted September 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 It was Nora's birthday!!! An article from her website, 'Nora The Piano Cat'.....Birthdays Are for Being Grateful…September 10, 2011 It’s my eighth birthday today, September 10th, and I’d like to thank the individuals and organizations responsible for me being here. First of all, let me thank my mother, a stray cat on the streets of Camden, NJ. Then there’s the woman who rescued me as a kitten and took me to Furrever Friends, a no-kill animal shelter. Thanks, guys. They maintained a pet adoption center at the Pet Smart (bless them), and that’s where I ended up in a big cage with a tag that said “Bossy.” That’s where I first met Burnell and Betsy, the lovely couple who adopted me and became my personal assistants. Who knows what course my life might have taken had I not ended up with them. I am deeply grateful for all the love and care and inspiration they have given me the last eight years. I’d also like to thank Dr. Wellens and the wonderful, caring vets and staff of Queen Village Animal Hospital where I get my regular checkups. And then there are my many fans who have nurtured my time on this planet with their comments and compliments and expressions of love and appreciation. Thank you all so very much.There are two fans I’d like to send special thanks to: One is my licensing agent, Laura Becker of Moxie & Company, for her tireless efforts on my behalf. The other is composer/conductor Mindaugas Piecaitis, who saw the potential in my music and brought it to the concert stage through his creation of CATcerto. His marvelous talent and passion for music is an inspiration to so many.I would be amiss if I failed to mention my fellow adopted siblings: Max, Rennie, Clara, Gabby, Jenny, and Ellie. Though we have not always seen eye to eye, especially if they came too close to my piano (especially Max). I do appreciate the warmth and joy they have added to our home and to the lives of Burnell and Betsy. And a happy personal assistant is a good personal assistant.Thank you all,Your Diva,Nora Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pandina Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Thanks everyone for this lovely thread.I started to love cats even before I was born!My mum told me that when she was pregnant I kicked a lot, but when the cat jumped on her lap, purring loudly, I calmed down until I kicked no more.It could be that I felt the cat's presence, I don't know, the only thing I'm sure about is that I ADORE cats!The last cat I had was a 2 month old stray kitten; my mother found her shivering alone in the cold, under a tree. She remained with us for 16 years.Agata (1993-2009)Another picture. I love this one because she had walked in the snow (as you can see from the footprints) and she was trying to get her paws dry... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
