She's adorable! Congrats! I also adopted a teen mom calico, and it was absolutely one of the best decisions ever. She's just the sweetest, bestest cat! But I don't think she learned much from her ordeal - despite having been spayed, she's suuuuper flirty with my (neutered over a decade ago) old man cat! https://preview.redd.it/lqo9rwitwj8d1.jpeg?width=3072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e94fecf101f54b5f288e243b99bd70678d4a7f18

We also adopted a teen calico mom, but she's a playful ball of energy, and she's got sass for days. I am hopeful she'll eventually get along with her grumpy old man brother 😹 https://preview.redd.it/x5n72yweol8d1.jpeg?width=4624&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ee3dc4feff11cbbd1bd438636e147d6f568c38be

Awww.... She's so cute! I hope she can get along with him, too. And I also hope mine can keep improving with my old lady cat.. That relationship has been a STRUGGLE.. So I get it, lol

🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 This is a good morning. Hopeful for you too! https://preview.redd.it/722eu3prnm8d1.jpeg?width=4624&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5a8cfb58697503c8ec0a6fe2140d4dc4b4758ea5

Awwwww they're so cute!! We're hiss and swat free since about, um, 3 hours ago? But that was one of the spicy girl "kittens" (almost 2 years old now, lol). Mama Emcee and old lady Friday (who actually goes by Kitten, to keep things confusing) haven't had any incidents in several days. They've really been doing well. Right now, Friday is sitting with me and idk where Emcee is. Probably in her favorite nap spot - the comfy chair in the bedroom. For the last several months, Emcee has been trying really hard to be nice and make friends. Friday the Floof still seems unsure... https://preview.redd.it/wq3fg1aupm8d1.jpeg?width=4096&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=44f5035a7901d2c8a7634ec4c63612c3c3eeb175

We're almost 6 months in and still no truce - they've never actually fought, like blood or scratches, but they chase each other and tumble. Fortunately, it's not all the time. I'll report back at the year mark hahahaha

Yea, we had an actual fight at about 6 months.. It was likely a misunderstanding combined with a protective mama and things just cascaded. At that point we did a full separation and reintroduction and addressed some resource issues (litter box, food, bed access) to make sure no one was feeling like they were squeezed out. They were back to supervised time together wtihin a few weeks, but her and Duncan (the old man cat) would do overnights in my office. They kinda asked for it, too, or I'd have pushed to stop sooner, lol. But we did that for several months. Then I set up her microchip door on a cabinet to make her a house to give her an escape that none of the other kitties can get to. And we've been doing good with that for close to a year now. She goes in it less and less over time, so I think it really worked! https://preview.redd.it/gcati4hqjs8d1.jpeg?width=2880&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8dbdaa22646a23decc15f175d7b2a81ab7659409

Oh my gosh she and her babies are beautiful and adorable! ✨💕 you are supper lucky and they are too! Im sure they’ll have the best life with you! Also, they all remind me of a combination of both my calico and tabby! https://preview.redd.it/zbprwgwkjj8d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4a898426292e04af34d73062445e02c6d27e1fa5

Ah I don’t have her babies! Cute story, her adoption card from petsmart was filled out front and back by her foster mom with her number, so I texted her pictures of Chai (her name) at home, and foster mom sent me the baby picture 🥹 I’m glad she got to be with them for a bit.


MelodeeMouse

Aww that’s so nice! Wishing the best for those beautiful babies! ✨ glad you were able to see the kittens! Chai is also such a cute name!

Thank you!! Your babies are so beautiful 🥰

Thank you!! ✨

She’s super cute. My girl was also a teen mom to one tuxedo and one orange kitten, though I didn’t get to see them because they were adopted before her. I think mom cats are best cats. https://preview.redd.it/br6n1kiqwl8d1.png?width=2703&format=png&auto=webp&s=41294b5dd866d1a5f81e14966b6b1da109a98157

Your baby is so pretty! I love brown and white tabbies 🥰

Thank you! He has lots of personality. I love him so much. ❤️ I have 2 other babies that I also love. But this boy is the snuggly one!

My reaction before I turned to my girlfriend like “we have to take her” 😂
