Description I love this picture, and not because it's a good image at all because it isn't.  I shot it so fast and in bad light but my little girls are at peace finally.

 The first 6 months they tolerated each other but not friends.

 Then they just pass each other mostly, but not caring much to be around the other and stayed apart as much as they could.

 Never fighting, just an impersonal swat at each other to let the other know "I'm NOT your friend" and just not too friendly is all.

 This is the first time they've slept together and I've tried to inspire this for a year now. Right next to each other for hours at the end of my bed even when they KNEW the other was close by. 

These abused cats from the shelter that others didn't want, have taught me so much in life about how to be a better human being.

They help me be happier everyday.

wow, i love your cats, they are so beautiful and gorgeous, both cats have great colors/marking, i love them both, but the one with the blue eye's catch's my eye the most, but i just could cuddle and snuggle them both, and i'm happy they are getting along now, that is a very good thing, i know you don't want to see the fur flying in the air that would be some bad news.

Finding a girl today to love and respect is harder than at any time in life I've ever seen. Many of them used to have respect for themselves and make men want to be better human beings by just being around them, but today.....they are as crummy a human being as the rest of the world has become. 

Their personnel hygiene is poor, have filthy mouths and dress like guys in jeans and t-shirts and are for the most part totally devoid from having any class. They were a gift to this world, perhaps by God himself and they end up selfish, self-centered, lying users like most of the rest of the world today.

Certainly I don't mean all of them, for there are good people left in pockets all over the world for sure, but I'm afraid the numbers are getting so small they become very difficult to find.
Thank God for the cats, dogs, and other pets that are also real gifts to human beings that make our lives better than they were.
My cats and dogs make me a better person and I thank them everyday for their kindness and love by taking great care of them and giving them protection as well.

I thank you so much for the kind words. I don't like this place much anymore because I can go for a week or so without one single person saying one single word to me in spite of how many nice things I've said to hundreds of others on this sight.
I thought this would be a different place than the rest of the world.  A kinder, more sensitive, caring place, but it turns out that artists are EXACTLY like the rest of the world.......pretty much uncaring...cold....loves violence...... and in general just like everyone else.
Gosh I wish I was wrong, and hoped so much this would be a great site for friends. I've written 30,000 comments to others, with always nice things to say, and still haven't gotten ONE single friend that is more than a casual internet acquaintance at best,(30,000!!!) I don't hear a word from them unless I write first, and only half of them never respond even after that either. It seems that all young kids are on here anymore, and as selfish and inconsiderate as they come.

My point is that your comment really does mean something to me, and that is at least one person still has a kind heart...for that, I say thanks many times over.

Hey, it's no problem at all. ^^
Yeah, I've heard that this site isn't going too strong from many people, and I think I'm starting to believe that they're right. It's not often that you come across a nice person whose on this site just to share work and talk to other people. A lot of people just want some views. Of course, the people you do meet that are actually nice are real keepers. XD
I mean, it is hard to make lots friends on this, or any site. People might just be busy, or on holidays (I have been on a what... 5 month hiatus? xP) and don't realise that you've commented? I find it helpful to try and see the best in people.
Okay. I was quite young when I joined this, so I can't judge... but I've come across some really immature users.

^^ It's just good to know that it makes you feel better...

...And you're cats are beautiful! XD

They are so beautiful! I can see that they are loved and feel good. I'm always so happy to see animals from shelters being in good homes and in good condition. Taking care for an animal is one of the best things a man could do.

I do all of that I can and I can say without feeling guilty I'm very good at it. I have the patience to wait on them and pet them for an hour until they calm down and sleep with them and make sure eating three times a day is something they look forward to with new foods they like. I adore kids....animals and the arts is what I live for, and helping  others is what I do.


My latest two are just the best two cats anyone could ever ask for and I love them...I actually fall in lovfe with these little guys and would protect them with my life if necessary. My feelings are they are life too and deserve to live just as much as any of us do.


If we used IQ as a measure of live or die I think half the human race would be gone so I don't want to hear about animals being dumb. Mine never are.

I'm sure you are good at it. 

Animals can be silly at times but that's because they're so innocent and have free spirits. They are very intelligent and sensitive. And sometimes they deserve more than people because they don't do any harm to anyone.

They look really nice! And seems to enjoying each others company rather than being annoyed by it, that's for sure!

I think it's a wonderful thing you have done for them, to have worked with them, so that they can be together. I know how animals can teach one important things in life, and to have helped them so much is a beautiful thing to do for them in return!

Keep up sharing your love with your cats, cause animals will truly return it always!

You got it perfectly. When I first got them they would just swat at each other and hiss.

Then they just ignored each other for 6 months and stayed pretty much apart.

Now they seem to play some everyday and are getting along. They even lick each others ears a couple of times a day.


You got it perfectly right using the word "annoyed". that's the word I should have used.

Thanks for commenting.

I just love animals so much I think because I identify with the weak and not so powerful. With animals they're at our mercy way way way too much.

YOU'll get much better as you go and trying is a great quality so that's a real plus for you.


Animals are not like people and don't think like people do thank-god.


Let's take my cats for example. They eat three times a day and then spend 10 minutes grooming themselves and then a little play and off to a long nap. Even if I ant them to play with me I don't get them up because I know they're grumpy if not allowed to nap like they've done for thousands of years. I leave them alone until they wake up and done.

Another example is food...I don't give them my food except for chicken pieces I make. all the rest is things that make them unhealthy even if we LIKE it. They don't have the digestion we do and our foods make them unhealthy and have issue going to the restroom so I feed them healthy animal food.

Now here's the deal...they DON'T WANT MY FOOD at all. They smell our food and run away so I've learned it in't good for them.

Most animals DON'T like car rides and non of them like carnival's or circuses and get anxious around too much stimulation or too many other people so I protect them from all this foolishness we humans like.


YOu see I see my roll so much differently than others. I not only LOVE them first but next...I PROTECT them from other people and things we people create they don't like.


I know you get my point...you're a good one.

I understand what you are saying

I saw many people who says that chocolate is good for animals,and I know that they are being ridiculous

human food is never good for animals...


and car ride just makes an animal sick


we should protect our beloved animals friends always

arteater1 In reply to DreamySilver [2013-11-16 08:03:46 +0000 UTC]

We need you in this world to help others get it, and be kinder to these little guys. I forgot to even mention that chocolate thing but most people don't even know that. It can kill some of them as you know.


I see my main job is to love and protect them...mostly protect them like my friend that got a small dog and let him outside all the time with no leash because she said she felt sorry to have him on a leash.

then she calls me one day crying because he got hit by a car. I was so angry...so mad I wanted to actually shake her to pieces but had to hold my mouth shut because she was already hurt and crying. I wanted to tell her..."This is YOUR FAULT!!! YOu never loved him enough to protect him first.


what good is love if they die????

We shouldn't 'judge' animals....


If we really love animals,we should know what they need,and what they really don't need

I'm so sorry for that little dog that got hit by a car

his owner should have known that letting him outside is dangerous for him

arteater1 In reply to DreamySilver [2013-11-17 17:26:42 +0000 UTC]

I told her many times to keep her a leash and your not doing her a favor by letting her run free.

It's over now and we go forward is all we can do.
