Remembering when.................

It's Oct 4, the day after I saved Tuffy from Roscoe, poor little thing was terrified.

Above is the shot I took of Tuffy the day after I got him away from Roscoe. In the below video Tuffy was only about 7 weeks old and finally becoming curious about what all was in here. He still wasn't comfortable with Roscoe so that had to wait and of course some of you know how close they've become. I swear I've never had a cat that purred as much as Tuffy does. I estimate his Bday as August 29, 2022

I remember when you first came upon Tuffy. I think he was meant to be your kitty

I know, I miss how he could climb onto my lap and take a nap, I think he misses it too.

@rebelann Awwww, so he has completely stopped doing that? If he gets super big, you can climb onto his lap and take a nap

He's tried a couple times but he's so big now that he can't get comfortable on my lap anymore.

@rebelann Peppie too does not like cuddling but tolerates a bit of that and the rest they just do not want me to touch them

Most of my cats were like that too but this one loves to cuddle when he is in the mood.

It doesn't seem like that long since Tuffy was such a little kitty, he really has grown quickly and all at once I feel. Still cute as ever.

@rebelann Maybe he will get his youthfulness out of him, the wild and playful stage, and become a mature cat who will like to nap on your lap. Of course he will weigh alot more.

He doesn't fit on my lap anymore so now he lays next to me when I'm sleeping and of course he purrs like crazy.

Tuffy is such a cutie. I have not purrers among my two cats but my Freddie often exercises his vocal cords meowing,

Poor Tuffy doesn't have much of a voice, so far he's only had very low meows that I can hardly hear.

@rebelann that sounds like my Morticia. She meows and I see her mouth open and close but I have to lean in very close to hear anything sort of like a squeak

I'm so glad she enjoyed my wee Tuffy. I did the video back in October but hadn't added it to YouTube til today. He was so scared at first. He really missed his mom.

A cute puppy. I'm glad he's getting along well with Roscoe now. It's usually an amazing story of how these supposed-to-be mortal enemies become friends in the end, just like our cats and dog before our dog left.

@rebelann I brought him to the province because our neighbor in the city complained about his constant barking.
