It's so hard to give them up once we get close to them! I hope things work out for you!
By the way, I call the kitten I found in August "KatieDid" LOL!!!!
Looks like she may have a home and I am feeling so upset...Someone is coming with their granddaughter to see her tomorrow they have a cat and want a companion for him, I will then check out where she will go to, she will be an indoor cat not in and out as I have done..I have to keep her thru Friday as there are sutures to come out , oh well sorry guys I have to move to the dog Forum as my lord and master has said we rte going out to pick up a dog who needs a home.... will keep you helpful guys posted...
I love grass hoppers I remember the beautiful colors of the ones in Florida,I think they are grass hoppers? anyway I got some pics of them they wre so unusual, so Now I know what a katydid is ....The Kitty is getting its feet under the table even more, I put an an Ad in craigslist for a home for her. I will go and check the home so no worrys there.that I would chuck her out to Kitty abusers!!
My grandma has that problem with Sahib, and that's how he gets out. I open the door and push myself out quickly and close the door quickly. If one of the cats is there I will nudge them away firmly with my foot to keep them inside. I have at times had to grab them really fast and put them back in. Since Sahib isn't my cat I have little control over if he goes outside or not...Grandma will let him back out...
One time I had quite a scare when Sahib seemed to be lost and ti was a cold rainy night. I searched and searched and couldn't find him. I made a post here about it. Then I searched some more and heard meowing from across the street. I meowed back and he kept answering me. Eventually I found Sahib and returned him, only to find Waldo missing! Somehow he got out too... I was happy when I found Waldo and had both cats inside.
A Katidid (katydid) is a long-horned grasshopper. Technically speaking I belive they are more cricket like, but they look sort of like grasshoppers.

It has always been an outside cat MJ and I have kept her in a lot more due to the sutures ,but she wants to go out slips out past your legs anyway and I doubt if he who should be obeyed would be able to take it,,still shes still here , we shall see I wont send her to a shelter so I have to find a home and check it out so she'll stay till I do,I saw that terrific pic of the bee MJ but what the heck is a katidid, ??
In our home we have a kitty thats about 10 months old, a 2 year old labrador retriever, a parakeet and 3 fish tanks, one with african dwarf frogs, one with fancy guppies and baby mollies, and a 46 gallon tank with 20 fish in it... my kitty LOVES to try to get in the 10 gallon tank to drink the water!!! He also LOVES to stalk the bird... he jumps up to the chest of drawers that I have the bird cage on (used to have it in the livingroom, but it would have soon died there cuz of kitty) the kitty just lays and stares at the bird right next the the cage and his tail switches back and forth... the poor bird... Im surprised she has not had a cardiac arrest by now!! One time I forgot to shut my bedroom door and came home from church to the bird cage on the floor sideways and all the food scattered everywhere and tiny feathers gently floating all about and the kitty just laying there watching for some chance to "play" with the bird!!! My 8 year old daughter wants a hampster now!!! It'll have to have a VERY secure habitat with our very courious kitty lurking around!!! Just wanted to say kittys can share a home with other pets, but its a work in progress... he loves to destroy all my plants too... he lays IN my spider plants... he also likes to hang out in my atrium window "playing" with my plants and munching them here and there!!! He has ruined more that one of my plants... hopefully as he gets older he'll slow down on how often he messes with the critters and the plants... he is very cute and loveable.. which is a good thing or else I may not be too fond of him!!! :)
