Oh Gordon, you've been a naught boy!
Tony and the daughter have been in communication with each since Gordon has arrived at our house. Roni (the daughter) knows that Gordon is definately Tony's cat, and not mine. Yesterday she called Tony and asked if we would like another cat for me. It seems before Gordon left her house, he managed to impregnant two of her prized female Ragdolls!!! Oh! Gordon! You've been a very naughty boy! And for some crazy reason, Tony is totally proud of him! Wish I could make that Tim Allen grunt right now. MEN!  |

| How smart is it to leave an intact male around a bunch of breeding females? No grunts, just ............Duh? The boy was just following Nature's commands. |

MEN! That about sums it up. 
If I thought the resident feline would tolerate another cat (doubtful, and at 12 he deserves not to have his kingdom intruded on  ) I'd love to have one. I'm a sucker for a long haired cat. Go figure

I wonder if because we supplied the stud (I can hear Tony cheering now) we'd get the pick of the litter. Ragdolls sound like they have wonderful laid-back personalities. And it would be another tasty morsel for Lizzie chase! |

| LOL... hmmm.... kind of odd that she allowed them together, but what's done is done... ragdolls and maine coons are my favorite breeds, they'd probably be beautiful, and amazing personalities. |

Ragdolls sound like they have wonderful laid-back personalities. And it would be another tasty morsel for Lizzie chase! As is the case in any mix, there's no guarantee they'll have this personality or that. I know squat about ragdolls but have always loved the Maine Coon personality, more like a Norwegian Forest Cat which in turn is more "dog like" than most cats (cat people everywhere hissing madly at this slanderous statement at a guess.. Well... )
As for the chasing thing, another nice thing about the maine coon/forest cat personality is that they're pretty even keeled as a general rule and not likely to get their undies in a bundle over dumb dogs who think they should run. Then again, the resident feral born cat has always held his own in this regard. Just last night the foster dog was having fits because she was bored and couldn't get him to run. I looked up from shaving Mad to see the cat asleep on my kitchen table, Daphne standing ON the table (and I wonder why my mother won't visit me?  ) doing a little tap dance trying to get him to move, periodically poking him with her needlenose (a move I know well as this is how she likes to wake me up in the morning  )
I ordered her off and apologized to the cat who deigned to open one eye which he used to glare at me.
I do understand the temptation. I bet they'll be pretty darn cute. Kristine |
| Not one but 2 of them.... OH MY. He was a busy, but Happy, little fella before he went home with you. He was on vacation... and what happens on vacation ~ Stays on vacation...
(and my husband would have been proud too. Really must be a guy thing!) |

| Yes, it is a lovely house.....in the guise of a training center.
Hey, and I still have a house key to said house - just let me know if you want a tour.
But, you better give me 6 hours notice to drive there! |

Wayne (hubby) would be the same. He was inordinately proud of Tiggy when I came home from a second day in a row of obedience classes and told him that Tiggy had cracked it and become plain recalcitrant. She had wriggled her butt round behind my calf and leaned on me for every sit and had done the big belly flop every time she was supposed to stand. The trainer ended the session by coming over to ask me if I knew what I was doing. I was tempted to answer "yes, murdering this little Miss the minute I get her home"  I think that was the day Wayne really bonded with Tiggy (and he wasnt there). He looked fondly down at her and said "I like a dog with spunk!" Deb you said it MEN! Sorry guys  |
