WE ADOPTED DUDO and Moose from a shelter in Sevilla more than 6 years ago. They turned 7 in July.
When we returned from our travels more than a week ago, Moose was overjoyed to see us. No attitude, just affection.
Dudo gave us attitude for about 24 hours. Not too much attitude, however; he called a truce at treat time. Since then, they will not let us out of their sight.
Dudo is on my lap right now and Moose just headed off to see San Geraldo. I can hear them talking.
So this is love.

ADOPTAMOS A DUDO y Moose desde un refugio en Sevilla hace más de 6 años. Cumplieron 7 en julio.
Cuando volvimos de nuestros viajes hace más de una semana, Moose se llenó de alegría de vernos. Sin actitud, solo afecto.
Dudo nos dio una actitud de aproximadamente 24 horas. No mucha actitud, sin embargo; hubo una tregua en el momento del tratamiento. Desde entonces, no nos dejarán fuera de su vista.
Dudo está en mi regazo ahora mismo y Moose se fue a ver a San Geraldo. Puedo escucharlos hablar.
Entonces esto es amor.

¿Qué es nuevo gatito?

DeleteOne of the best decision we ever made was adopting them.
Aren't they just THE cutest? Give them your solemn word that you will never, NEVER, leave them again. Then keep your word.
ReplyDeleteRay:
DeleteI won't lie to them. But right now every time we leave the house, we tell them where we're going and that we won't be long.
Cats are the best.
ReplyDeleteWilma:
DeleteI never had a cat growing up, but I'm definitely a convert.
Handsome kitties, Tom Jones and several cups of coffee, the tone for my Sunday is set!
ReplyDeleteDeedles:
DeleteI like to make fun of Tom Jones but I have to admit, he was GOOD!
I love Tom Jones! I have his greatest hits on cd. Not a clunker on it. I like his growly version of Kiss.
DeleteDeedles:
DeleteHe did have the goods. And could he ever move.
Deedles... And by "goods" I really did mean talent!!!
DeleteMy mom's cat bit her when she came back from DC
ReplyDeleteAdam:
DeleteHa! Fortunately, these guys never bite. Dudo simply turned his back on me.
Yup, that's pure unconditional love!
ReplyDeleteBob:
DeleteWe can learn a lot from a cat.
What have you done. . . I will be singing that song all day !
ReplyDeleteYes that is love !
cheers, parsnip
Parsnip:
DeleteSinging that song all day? Why, why, why, Delilah?
I love those kitties :)
ReplyDeleteJudy:
DeleteOh, we do, too, so much. And they continue to evolve and grow more and more affectionate.
Are Moose and Dudo related, or did you just adopt two cats with similar coloring?
ReplyDeleteKirk:
DeleteThey're litter mates. Their three colorful sisters got adopted quickly leaving these two "ordinary" kittens living in a cage at the shelter for 10 months. We're so glad we found them. https://mitchellismoving.blogspot.com/2012/11/you-must-have-been-beautiful-baby.html
Okay now the household is back to normal....
ReplyDeleteWillym:
DeleteAs normal as it ever gets...
Pets can be so funny, shows they have character and express themselves. Good photos of them both. What a life of luxury they have.
ReplyDeleteLaurent:
DeleteThey do live well. The place is basically designed around them, their toys, their climbing towers... Obsessive-compulsive me sometimes wants to move everything to one room... but I love them too much for that.
Just keeping a watchful eye(s) on you both!
ReplyDeleteThey are adorable .....and I think they know it!
Jim:
DeleteWe actually call some of their poses "being adorable" for us. It works.
oh those crazy cats! what would be do without them?
ReplyDeleteSpo:
DeleteI know for certain they lower my blood pressure... most days. Maybe not when Moose is walking around the house at 5 a.m. yowling because no one is up to feed him and pay some attention.
I have always found it interesting cats give attitude when you travel and come back, but dogs don't.
ReplyDeletemistress maddie:
DeleteI've known some dogs who give major attitude. Buster Bolfig Borghese is a rare breed, I think.
Awww. It's nice when the family is all together!
ReplyDeleteWalt the Fourth:
DeleteI have to admit, I really missed them.
