Grace came from an animal shelter in Apple Valley CA, of all the cats there, She was the only one not meowing at Me, She was in fact facing away from Me, so I picked Her, it's like She had given up, at the time 5 years ago, She was 9lbs, now She is about 16lbs, they were only feeding Her dry food and water, Me I feed Her dry food, water and canned chicken cat food, She's very friendly and will if She can go outside, though I'd rather She not do that, since I'm afraid for Her safety, from cars or predators like Bobcats, or even being trapped and picked up like a stray since She refuses to wear any collar. She cost Me $10, plus the cost of a full tank of gasoline, I think I used 4.4 gallons of gasoline during those 2 days out of a full 12 gallons and I'd needed enough for the whole month, since the shelter in Apple Valley is 55 miles away from where I live and I had to go back a day later to bring Her home. Turns out She'd been let go by someone before the shelter got Grace, since when I got Her She was 2 years old and had been a stray, She'd been operated on, the shelter was going to operate on Her, turns She has a scar where you'd operate at to fix a cat. She's a long hair cat, She's a Black and White Maine Coon cat, She will follow Me or even watch water, like when one flushes a toilet, She will lay down and take naps near Me or lay on My left thigh when I'm watching TV. Oh and Grace was the name of My paternal Grandmother, who I'd only met maybe 3 or 4 times, at least that I can actually remember. Here's Grace and My next PC, that is an AZZA 9000B Full Tower case, I just need some compatible ram to bring that PC to life, that pic I just took today...

A dogs worst nightmare? Nah, Grace has 1/4" long claws and feet 2 fingers wide, I had a smaller house cat once that got the best of a dog 3 to 4 times Her size and weight, Grace is twice as big. I've got the real thing here. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

OMG..... The kittyman let the kibble bowl run out last night. Tigger was just racing around meowing this morning.... She is the kibble alarm around here and is not shy about meowing about it.

Hello all we have a similar problem here not running out of food but normal routine when we get home is Jake wants to rub our legs and get petted and tell us about his day(he does talk to us just because we do not understand does not mean he is not trying to tell us something) BUT if we get home after 7pm he is up in the window watching for us to get home because 7 is dinner time and TREAT time and he wants to go straight to the kitchen no petting or rubbing until food and treats are done.

Grace is beautiful cat when I was growing up we had a cat that looked similar he was all black no white or any other color we called him cinders I remember one day my dad's 160lb st. bernard got a little to friendly and cinders clawed him on the nose and every time after that when cinders was around that dog was trying to find someplace to hide.
