Tabby Day and Adopt a Shelter Pet Day and The Blogosphere!

 

 
 The cat that Mom grew up with was a tabby. Her name was Tiger and she lived with Mom for 10 years.
 
 
Later, she had an Orange Tabby named Attila!
 
He arrived when Alex was 5 years old and they lived in a small village in the foothills in Alberta. When they moved to the big city, Attila missed being an outside cat. A friend of Mom's got him a new person who lived "off the grid". Attila LOVED his new home and his new person and he lived to be 21 years old! The last time Mom saw him was about 2 weeks before he went over the bridge and he still acted like a kitten.
Now Mom is owned by us 2 tabbies! Jo Jo and Me, Marvelous. 
 

Jo Jo is 3 years older than I am. We look very much alike. We are the same size but I have bigger paws and a squarer head. Our coats have different patterns. When you see us at a distance, we can be mistaken for each other, but when we are together, you can see the difference.

  5. Marv and BFF Jo Jo you have Tabby Day, and Kozmo has Tuxie Day, what's a grey onesie girl like me got? It's a good think I got good furiends like you or I'd feel left out, mol. Jo Jo always looks regal and Marv, you always have a silly grin on yer face that's how Lynn tells you apart. I came furom the orphanage and am so glad Lynn found me, stripes or not. Precious

  8. Happy Tabby Day! If we hadn't seen you two so close together we wouldn't have realized how different your coats were.

  9. Oona: "Oona is technically a tabby, even though she is a black ninja kitty. You can still see her tabby stripes if the light is just exactly right."
    Charlee: "A ninja tabby?"
    Oona: "It is a technique to disorient Oona's opponents."
    Chaplin: "Hooray for adopting a shelter pet! We are all shelter pets here except for Oona, who went right from the street to our Dada's cousin's porch to here."

  10. Beautiful shots of tabbies. Especially Marvelous Marv. He's my heart cat.

    We didn't need to adopt our kitties, they just showed up. That worked for us.

    Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. Scritches all around, a smooch to Marvelous Marv and a big hug to mom. ♥

  14. Happy Tabby Day! We loved seeing you and Jo Jo, Marv. And the other tabbies who came before you, too. Ava and Target (the Tabby!) and all of our other kitties have come from the shelter. XO
