Description Dedicated to my dear friend Sani
for her BIRTHDAY which was on Aug. 11th

I've known Sani a very long time on dA! It seems like I've known her longer than that.
Even if we have not talked for a while, we understand each other because we understand certain things of each other.
She is also like family- like a sister. Sani is a really lovely friend, and I will always be grateful I have met her.
Plus I am a big fan of the variety of her work!
And I will always remember her BIG support of "The Shelter Project".

Sani, I wish you a beautiful year ahead, with good things to happen. My best with everything you do!



~~~~~~~~~~~~


The above photo is two of my younger cats. They are actually two of the ones I have raised from the youngest.
Abby is the Tortie on the left, where I raised her from 3 weeks old, and she was very sick off and on.  In the end, she turned into quite a big and fluffy healthy girl!

Xochitl (So-cheel), the white with black, on the right, is the one I raised from her first full day of life! This was a year after Abby. It was quite a daunting experience.  Though Abby is only about a year older, she is VERY maternal with Xochitl, (though all of our cat clan truly accepted Xochitl very easily, which we thought was interesting... because usually it takes a while for at least one or two to accept someone new...)

Anyway, these two can often be seen cuddling together, and even though they did not come from the same litter, and are not blood related, they definitely act like sisters!

Jeesh, God bless you Tea! Raising them both (but especially Xochit) from such a young age!  I raised my two (siblings) from 4 weeks of age; getting up every night just like a real mommy to feed them, for 3 months that went on. Can you say tiring?   - But so worth it! I love them to bits! Just as you love yours.   Such beauties they are.

TeaPhotography In reply to LindArtz [2015-08-16 21:40:01 +0000 UTC]

Yes, you do know what I am talking about then!!! And Abby had prolapse, "back there" and a few other medications... it is like being a real mommy when they are that young! Oh I know, it iS worth it! You know it like I do!
Yeah the one day old thing, was truly crazy... bottle feeds and everything...

Anyway, yup.

Aww that is so sweet! It's interesting seeing cats being loving - I'm not sure if I told you this before but one of my mum's cats was very protective over my little sister (first when she broke her arm as a child, second when she became pregnant). It's funny because the cat and his brother do not get on so well, and this particular cat is not very sociable with people either.

TeaPhotography In reply to bergunty [2015-08-16 21:37:06 +0000 UTC]

No you haven't.... but it is very interesting...
because there are certain cats, especially who live in groups or rather clans, who either don't get along together, usually males with males, because they are trying to be the alpha all the time, OR, also certain cats that DO make excellent "guard cats" for either the whole house, (we used to have one sit in the window and growl at anything "strange" outside! OR who are protectors of certain people and most often children, especially when they've known the child since it's been a child - not necessarily a random child.

Some people think cats are all the same, but they are quite individualistic.

bergunty In reply to TeaPhotography [2015-08-17 05:01:11 +0000 UTC]

They certainly are! The brother is definitely alpha; he is larger, steals the other's food, and always starts the fights, yet he is the more sociable and likes being handled. We had them since they were kittens (I think someone was giving them away?)

Your cats sound interesting too!

It's easiest when they are sleepy.
